I used to have quite a few, but i sold most of them, save for the characters that often don’t have any merch otherwise. Snake, falcon, fox and samus were the ones I valued the most (until the recent metroid revival)
I have one, Snake, because I have a massive Metal Gear collection. Never used any of the ones I’ve owned over the years, other than some of the Animal Crossing cards to get some villagers I wanted.
The first time I learned about amiibo was in Sakurai's presentation with the Joker/Hero amiibo. I went to GameStop and saw A LOT of Joker amiibo lined on the walls with a lot of Legend of Zelda amiibo and Hero amiibo. I ordered the Joker amiibo and learned that the amiibo quickly sold out AFTER I got my new amiibo. Then, I learned about the Sephiroth amiibo who showed up with Kazuya/Pyra/Mythra during Sakurai's next presentation and Sephiroth quickly became my second amiibo, Joker being my first one. Both are at Level 50 in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and both are MONSTERS on the field of war. I trained these two with human hands and now they utterly DESTROY me. The STUDENTS have learned from their MASTER! These amiibo were $15.99 before their prices skyrocketed crazy high, like at $200. I have an orange DURAGADGET amiibo bag that I keep my Sephiroth and Joker amiibo in instead of the box that they came in. I really love using them in the game or placing them back in my orange bag once I'm finished playing with them. I'm never giving my precious boys up! I ordered Joker at GameStop and I ordered Sephiroth at Target.
im a few minutes in and just saw how fee views this has. Genuinely thought this would have hundreds of thousands. The production quality is amazing. I haven’t finished it yet but holy moly good shit man you rocked it.
I'm 9 months late to this, but does anyone remember U.B. Funkeys? This was where I initially saw this take place, before Skylanders was even conceived. It was by no means a big thing from what I could tell at least at the time, and the base game didn't have much to offer. Each little toy ended up being glorified cosmetics, while others were just expensive dlc (before DLC became more common/very expensive).
I personally think they should have used the amiibos for more crossovers. Example: fire emblem fates let you scan Marth, Ike, Lucina, and Robin to recruit them but what if you could use ALL of the smash bros amiibo and recruit Link, Cloud, Samus, and the rest of the smash bros cast? I feel like it would have a bigger impact in-game.
I remember in the beginning of 2019 I’ve collected a good amount of the smash bros amiibo (both from smash 4 and ultimate) and now since it’s 2024 my resolutions is to collect all the remaining ones I don’t got.
I had many amiibos just sitting in my desk, mostly splatoon and Zelda ones. I even have the yoshi’s wooly world Ones. It’s sad that whenever I go to stores i only see like very few amiibos and it’s always the same exact amiibos
Smash Bros. Amiibo are awesome. I really hope Sora gets one like the rumors suggest. I have Cloud and Plan to get Sephiroth as well. Lord knows if I win the lottery I'll buy the whole smash roster lol.
If nintendo did make 400+ figures for every animal Crossing character, you know there would be the typical amiibo addicts buying all of them lol. Doesn't matter if they're useless, worthless, unpopular, etc. Amiibo addicts WILL complete the full collection
As someone who’s collected them since 2014, I’ve enjoyed using them in game or displaying them in a glass case.
Amiibos still sell really well. Nintendo just isn’t relying on it like they did during the dark days of the Wii U.
Yuuup😊
I LOVED doing amibos for smash personally 🤷♂️
“Remember Amiibos?”
Me who literally bought a Sephiroth Amiibo like a week ago: 😐
I remember camping for amiibos. Never again 💀
Great video :)
Even if I have amiibos in my room, I’ve forgotten just how popular they used to be back in the day
I still have a few of these guys lol

I have two metal mario and zero suit samus I'm getting more soon

In my opinion, I really love the Splatoon amiibo functionality even though I have only used them (the ones I currently own) in Splatoon 2
It’s still the last remind of the toys to life skylanders and Lego dimensions didn’t last that much longer

I haven't seen an Amiibo in stores for years now.
I do and I still have my Mario and Luigi from 2014
So glad they never forgot to use amiibos outside of Smash
i got them exclusively for smash honestly incredibly fun making a raid boss out of boredom and occasionally torturing my friends online
Underrated
The plural of amiibo is still amiibo
I've got the 30th anniversary Mario, the Mario Party Luigi one, Mega Man, Sonic, Pikachu, Steve, Alex, Joker, Terry, Ryu, and Dark Samus
You're so lucky. I tried to get the joker amiibo, and to this day, joker is massively overpriced. Its now 100 usd plus shipping to get OUT OF BOX.
Anyone who owns the boxboy amiibo is a god
Smash Bros. Amiibo are awesome. I really hope Sora gets one like the rumors suggest. I have Cloud and Plan to get Sephiroth as well. Lord knows if I win the lottery I'll buy the whole smash roster lol.
Sky landers 1 went so hard
i never counted but id say i have around 30 amiibo 🤯

Doesn't matter if they're useless, worthless, unpopular, etc. Amiibo addicts WILL complete the full collection
I bought 2 of each characters. 1 to open and 1 to keep in box
