Amiibo has been developed by Nintendo even since the 3DS and Wii U games were developed. They can be placed on the NFC Reader/Writer if you have a Nintendo 3DS unless it’s a New Nintendo 3DS. If you have a Wii U, you can also place amiibo on the lower left corner on the Wii U Game Pad. If you have a Nintendo Switch, then there is more than one way to use amiibo on it. Some 3DS, Wii U, and Switch games are compatible with amiibo. With this, you can get extra stuff, like bonus items, exclusive gear, and more. Learn more about amiibo used in certain Nintendo series types by clicking on dropdown tabs in the Amiibo Tab. The list includes, but not limited to, the following Nintendo series types in particular order below.
