Nintendo has announced amiibo, it's figurine platform that makes use of the Wii U GamePad's NFC capabilities.
As previously reported, the figurines will work with the upcoming Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. But that's not all, as Mario Kart 8, as well as a number of other games, will make use of the Nintendo-branded toys as well.
The Big N plans to share more information on how amiibo will be implemented in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U during E3 this week. As such, stay tuned to GameRevolution for all the details.
