Take your favorite hero from the Super Mario world right into your hands. The amiibo Donkey Kong figure contains an NFC chip for reading and writing data. When placed on the NFC area of the Wii U GamePad console or on the bottom screen of the New Nintendo 3DS and New Nintendo 3DS XL, its functions are activated in compatible games.
Depending on the specific game, amiibo can unlock special costumes, equipment, game modes or other content. In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS, the compatible figure can be trained as a fighter that remembers opponents' play styles and can obtain in-game items.
