We have official confirmation that the Nintendo Switch 2 will carry on the amiibo figure line thanks to last week’s Nintendo Direct presentation. While that quickly settled my fears that Ninty was phasing out charming toys, I can’t help but wish they made one change that would truly make them my favorite peripheral with this new console generation - including an NFC card with every figure.
Adding a collectible card with every new amiibo would fix my biggest issue with the Nintendo Switch accessory, making it easier to unlock in-game content without messing up, and even accidentally breaking, my collection. I’m over 100 figures deep, but having to remove an amiibo from their well-thought-out displays each time I want to use one is tedious. If each figure came with the same data on a collectible NFC card, it would be far more convenient and accelerate my current desire to collect them all.
