Wish I could throw down that much money for Amiibo. What's that, "Star Power" Mario?

It's from this World of Nintendo figure set. They're super cheap, usually like $3 near the register at Walmart. Pretty nice little toys for the price.

(I don't have these, only the Star Power Mario)

Oh, I thought there was a special Mario Amiibo I was missing. You had me scared there. Still never seen those at my Walmart. Are they common where you live?

My Amiibo so far. Except those ones I mentioned before that are on their way.

Oh snap, both Peach Amiibos? Now there's a guy who's devoted to Peach!

Yeah, at least they were. Haven't been looking for them lately. When I've seen them they're with the trading cards, usually on a shelf near the floor.

...but there are more Mario Amiibo coming. Gonna have to track down those 8-bit ones once they're out.

I almost forgot about those...ugh.

Man, I'm so glad they don't make toys about anything I really care about.

I mean fuck, if there were a Jet Set Radio line of Amiibo toys, I'd be screwed!

Not unless Nintendo helps Sega make the next JSR title.

And thank god that'll never happen, right?

Thank god indeed.

Shovel Knight Amiibo confirmed

Kinda lame that the only way to unlock co-op mode is to buy a toy in the 5 minutes before it sells out.

Hakudamashi · August 28, 2015, 01:57:54 AM

Remember when Co-op was a standard in video games?

I don't recall old Megaman or Castlevania games having co-op.

Hakudamashi · August 28, 2015, 07:35:14 AM

You're right, Co-op never existed before, my apologies.

It certainly wasn't standard for games like Shovel Knight.
