**amiibo** is a line of near field communication devices available for the Nintendo 3DS, Wii U, and Nintendo Switch systems. They are figures or cards of Nintendo characters, as well as third-party characters that have appeared in *Super Smash Bros.* games. amiibo are scanned by tapping them on the Wii U GamePad, New Nintendo 3DS touch screen, on the NFC reader/writer for the original Nintendo 3DS, or on the Nintendo Switch right Joy-Con.

amiibo are divided into different series, based on the game or game series that particular figure or card is associated with. The same character can appear in different amiibo series, but functions the same in almost all games.

## *The Legend of Zelda* amiibo

So far, four different amiibo series contain *The Legend of Zelda*-related amiibo: the *Super Smash Bros.* series, *The Legend of Zelda* series, the *Breath of the Wild* series, and the *Link's Awakening* series. Available amiibo figures are compatible with *Hyrule Warriors*, *Hyrule Warriors Legends*, *Twilight Princess HD*, *Breath of the Wild* and Link's Awakening. Additionally, many *The Legend of Zelda*-related amiibo can be used with other Nintendo games, sometimes even unlocking *The Legend of Zelda*-related content in these games (such as *Animal Crossing: New Leaf*, *Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U* or *Mario Kart 8*).

## Functionality

### *The Legend of Zelda* Series Games

#### *Hyrule Warriors* Series

  Artwork of Link riding the Spinner in *Hyrule Warriors*
In *Hyrule Warriors* and *Hyrule Warriors Legends*, scanning an amiibo gives the player an amiibo reward the first time it is scanned each day, with some amiibo for *The Legend of Zelda* characters giving special rewards. Up to five amiibo rewards can be obtained each day. A Medal is achieved after receiving 100 amiibo rewards. amiibo functionality was added to *Hyrule Warriors* in the Version 1.4.0 patch, which was released on November 27, 2014 worldwide; *Hyrule Warriors Legends* has amiibo functionality from launch.

Scanning a Link or Toon Link amiibo unlocks the Spinner if it is not already unlocked. Otherwise, scanning a Link or Toon Link amiibo yields a random third tier weapon for Link rated 3 stars or higher. Link and Toon Link can both yield amiibo rewards the same day. In *Hyrule Warriors Legends*, it is not required to scan either amiibo to obtain the Spinner as it is available from the start.

Scanning a Zelda, Ganondorf or Sheik amiibo yields a random third tier weapon for the scanned character rated 3 stars or higher. Zelda and Sheik can both yield amiibo rewards the same day. If the third tier is not unlocked for that character, scanning these amiibo can yield a third tier weapon for any character.

In *Hyrule Warriors Legends*, scanning the Wolf Link amiibo yields a random Shackle for Midna or, provided that she is unlocked, a random Mirror for Twili Midna. In *Hyrule Warriors*, scanning the Wolf Link amiibo will act the same as scanning any other non-specifically supported amiibo. The Toon Link amiibo now unlocks weapons for Toon Link rather than normal Link.

Scanning any other amiibo rewards the player with a random weapon rated 3 stars or lower, a random Material, or a random amount of Rupees.

#### *Twilight Princess HD*

In *Twilight Princess HD*, the Wolf Link amiibo, along with the *Super Smash Bros.* series of *Zelda* amiibo, are all compatible. amiibo can be scanned on the collection screen once light has been restored to the Faron Province.

Scanning the Wolf Link amiibo transports Link to the Cave of Shadows dungeon. It can also save a checkpoint of the number of remaining Hearts Link has preserved upon completing a section of the cave, which scanning again while in the cave will restore Link's health to that amount saved. Scanning the Link or Toon Link amiibo will replenish Arrows, while scanning the Zelda or Sheik amiibo will restore Link's Hearts. Scanning Ganondorf's amiibo allows Link to take twice as much damage, and will turn his red Heart gauge blue to signify the change. If used while in Hero Mode, the amiibo will quadruple the damage taken. Aside from the Wolf Link amiibo, all amiibo can only be scanned once per day. Scanning Ganondorf's amiibo a second time states that the damage has already been doubled.

The Wolf Link amiibo is also able to save data, which can then be transferred over to *Breath of the Wild*. This enables players to have Wolf Link as a travel companion in that game. The amount of hearts Link has in *Twilight Princess* when the Cave of Shadows data is saved to the amiibo will be given to the Wolf Link companion in *Breath of the Wild*.

#### *Breath of the Wild*

Main article: amiibo (Rune)
As announced during November 2015's Nintendo Direct, *Breath of the Wild* will be compatible with the Wolf Link amiibo. Upon scanning the amiibo, Wolf Link himself will appear in the game to join Link as a companion. The amount of hearts Wolf Link has is the same as the number of hearts saved onto the amiibo in *Twilight Princess HD*. Once Wolf Link loses all his hearts, he will vanish and cannot be scanned back into the game until the following real-world day. While Wolf Link is in games, he will help Link in combat and hunt down animals. Link can also whistle to call Wolf Link back if he wanders too far.

All other *The Legend of Zelda* amiibo from the *Super Smash Bros.* series, *The Legend of Zelda* 30th Anniversary series the *Breath of the Wild* series and *The Legend of Zelda* series are also compatible with *Breath of the Wild*, all of which drop random amounts of helpful items and a Treasure Chest near Link, with the Treasure Chest potentially containing a rare item, such as a Weapon or Armor. Scanning other amiibo will only drop random amounts of items.

The amiibo based on the Champions will summon Materials as well as Weapons related to the Champions themselves. Additionally, the Champion-themed amiibo will summon Armor based on each Champion's Divine Beast. The Mipha amiibo will summon a Silverscale Spear and the Vah Ruta Divine Helm. The Daruk amiibo will summon a Stone Smasher and the Vah Rudania Divine Helm. The Revali amiibo will summon a Falcon Bow and the Vah Medoh Divine Helm. The Urbosa amiibo will summon a Moonlight Scimitar, a Radiant Shield and the Vah Naboris Divine Helm.

#### *Super Mario Maker*

In *Super Mario Maker*, scanning a compatible amiibo creates a Mystery Mushroom that grants Mario the appropriate 8-bit costume of the scanned character. It is also possible to unlock these costumes without scanning an amiibo through the 100 Mario Challenge, and some costumes must be unlocked this way. In addition to these, there are also special costumes that are only unlocked by completing Event Courses, which are official courses released by Nintendo. Each costume transforms Mario into the likeness of that character. While the costumes still share Mario's innate abilities and limitations, each costume now makes a special pose by pressing up on the Control Stick or Control Pad, and plays unique tunes when Mario acquires the costume, reaches the Goal Pole, or loses a life. There exist costumes of Link, Zelda, Sheik, Toon Link, Ganondorf, as well as Tingle, Totem Link (based on the Links from *Tri Force Heroes*), Wolf Link, and Tetra.

The Link costume allows Mario to hold the Triforce aloft by pressing up on the Control Stick or Control Pad.

The Toon Link costume allows Mario to pull out the Deku Leaf when jumping. Its associated jingles are from *The Wind Waker*: the item obtainment tune will play when the costume is first obtained, the music from when Link completes the Boating Course will play when the goal pole is reached, and the music from when Link is thrown into a cell in the Forsaken Fortress will play when Mario loses a life.

The Tingle costume can only be unlocked through the 100 Mario Challenge. It allows Mario to strike a pose by pressing up.

The Totem Link costume is based on the three Links from *Tri Force Heroes* forming a Totem, featuring Blue on the bottom, Red in the middle, and Green on top. It can only be unlocked by clearing the *Tri Force Heroes* Event Course. The Totem Link costume allows Mario to pose with the Sword, Boomerang, and Bow by pressing up. Its associated jingles include 8-bit versions of the item obtainment jingle and the introduction of the *Tri Force Heroes* main theme.

The Wolf Link costume allows Mario to pose asleep with Midna laughing by pressing up. Jumping while wearing the costume will result in a bark. Its associated jingles are from *Twilight Princess*: the Tear of Light obtainment tune will play when the costume is unlocked, Wolf Link's howl will play when the costume is first obtained, the seize fanfare will play when the goal pole is reached, and the music when Link fails in the Rollgoal minigame will play when Mario loses a life. The Wolf Link costume can be unlocked by scanning its amiibo, or by clearing the *Twilight Princess HD* Event Course.

The Tetra costume can be unlocked through the 100 Mario Challenge in Normal or higher difficulty. It allows Mario transform into Zelda by pressing up on the Control Stick or Control Pad. Its associated jingles are from *The Wind Waker*: the item obtainment tune will play when the costume is first obtained, the music from when Link completes the Boating Course will play when the goal pole is reached, and the music from when Link is thrown into a cell in the Forsaken Fortress will play when Mario loses a life.
