      I'd like to be for blame for that, once I finally started making money. It all ended. LOL. My bad! - Joseph

    I'd rather have figures than just cards. I live in a small town and the only place to get any of them is one store surrounded by 8 other towns, so there's no hope of getting them locally. I would love for the ones that do exist to be easier to get.

    Don't sleep on the splatoon amiibo! They give cool gear and missions that are exclusive for amiibo

    I've been there from the start and I am a massive Nintendo fan. I have A LOT of amiibo but even I know know which ones to target and to not bother with now at this point. I have all the Smash ones (and plan to get the last of the DLC ones as they hit) but even now I want to make sure that the ones I get are worth it and I'm happy to skip over any that do nothing (Like the SM3D Cat ones) unless they are just really cool to me. I have a few in boxes for collection (I wish I didn't bother) but I always open and use the ones I get now. Honestly, most of them are great. The ones for MHR:Sunbreak are well designed and useful for that game. I guess they are worth it for that. I still have the Metroid Dread ones unopened as I got sent them after I finished the game.

      DAMN. Sounds like you're a super amiibo collector to me. Best if you keep it up, you never know what may happen next!

      I am jealous. Stupid Skylanders took up my 2014. Had Skylanders never existed I would have all Smash Amiibo by now.

    My first Amiibo was a basic Mario styled Bowser to try out on Mario Party 10.
    My first Smash Amiibo was Peach.
    Aside from Mario characters, I also got some Samus Returns Amiibo.
    And that's about it for now.

      Yup! That's right! Such good memories there. Although thankfully I didn't make income when it was still in business, otherwise I'd be in debt lol. - Joseph

    I think it's worth collecting simply because they look great. Love having figures of my favorite characters from various games. The fact that they can be scanned to do things in games is pointless to me. Literally never done it, won't ever do it, don't care.

    • @thecollectioncompass7237
      @thecollectioncompass7237  2 года назад +2

      Oh they look fantastic, but when I was younger, the whole scanning gimmick was the thing to lure me in. Same like others during the Toys for Life time - Joseph

    Honestly the fact Amiibos have kinda "died out" in trend makes it even better for me, I can get em more easily 😈 (well ok not that easily because there are some really rare and expensive ones)

    I’ve been collecting from the beginning and I would be so sad if nintendo stopped amiibo/amiibo functionality. Breath of the wild was the best game to have zelda amiibos because it added so much to the game without making people who don’t have amiibos, feel left out. It’s also nice to go buy a game, and be able to get a well made accessory/figure for it too. I agree on the animal crossing bit too. It was just too much to keep up with and people hoard packs of those more than amiibos!

  • @SpooktacleJunior
    @SpooktacleJunior Год назад +1

    Even tho amiibos have kinda died out I’ve wanted to try and get a Luigi amiibo and spray painted it with gold spray paint and I might even do that and get more Mario amiibos and make a series out if it of custom gold amiibos. But since trying to get one amiibo is about 20 to 40 dollars I might not do it but it would be cool and I might do it. If I do my wallet will be broke lol.

    The New Smash game: Super Smash bros 6 will have more unlockables and use amiibos to unlock fighters in the new smash game, but do this once a week as a unlockable game mode after i unlock a first character in Classic mode or vs match once for the first time.

    Nintendos are pretty revived right now, I’m seeing a lot more stuff about them, Nintendo’s been restocking A LOT of them on their website, so yeah.

      Hopefully it'll lower the price down since that's whats holding me back from finishing this off - Joseph

    I love amiibo they look great just a tad to expensive. Hope they add more compatability with games, some games have great inklusion and some just suck.

    • @thecollectioncompass7237

      I personally don't see them doing any game with a huge amiibo support. But I love to be proven wrong! - Joseph
