Whether they are used as hardware, desk ornaments or simply collector’s items, amiibo are a hot commodity in the gaming industry currently. While most E3 conferences major focus was on their upcoming video games, Nintendo also introduced new emoji’s to accompany some of those announcements.
Mario, Metroid, and Fire Emblem are all set to receive exclusive amiibos to go alongside that will work with their individual games. The reveals came during today’s Nintendo Treehouse Live event, detailing what each one would look like upon its release.
Three brand new Super Mario Odyssey figures are on their way, including Mario, Bowser, and Peach. Mario sports a white suit, top hat and a red tie, Peach is in a wedding dress and tiara, and Bowser is also in a white suit with a white top hat.
For Metroid, they showed off a new Samus Aran figure and a squishy alien creature breaking out of its glass enclosure. Each amiibo will be compatible with both Metroid: Samus Returns which will be released for Nintendo 3DS on September 15.
Fire Emblem is releasing two new amiibo to celebrate the upcoming release of Fire Emblem Warriors later this year. They will be Chrom and Tiki figures, which will both be compatible with the game upon its release.
