I own a bunch of animal crossing ones because they were on clearance for like $2 and a great reward for good behavior for my 3 year old at the time

If you're one of those weirdos who have every single amiibo new in box, hold on to them for like 20 years, then unload them and retire happily

Amiibo are guaranteed to be worth more than beanie babies just because they have the Nintendo name attached to them. There isnt a single complete collection of anything Nintendo that isnt worth a decent amount of money for just that reason

And it made one-eighth the difference.
I buy Amiibo, throw away the characters, and glue the bases on scantily-clad anime women.

For those interested:

The Senran Kagua game is out. The base game with Asuka is $9.99 and Yumi is available as a DLC character for an additional $9.99. Lots of cosmetic DLC is available ranging from $2.50-$9.99 but does nothing to affect story mode.

It's quite literally the Senran Kagura Peach Beach Splash dressing room with some motion control minigames. Outside of that the draw is watching the Senran Kagura characters as different anime tropes and saying they love you after finishing the story.

I have a Link amiibo because I wanted the spinner in Hyrule Warriors back in the day. And 8-bit Mario because my Wii U was a Mario Maker bundle. That is all.

If I were to buy one purely for the character it'd be Luigi or Captain Falcon

Huh none of them? I absolutely loved the Chapter 2 Boss theme (Decisive battle II). When those percussive hits kick in right after the cutscene you know you had to win FOR JUSTICE!

It'd be silly to spend that when they're about to announce the BOXBOY switch collection w/ amiibo in a few hours. Just in time for his appearance in smash.

The musical transitions from each character's climactic theme to the boss music is just so loving good, I never get tired of it.

Speaking of Octopath I have to wonder if an artist somewhere had done big huge elaborate battle sprites for the main cast because that would be extremely my jam.

I went with a Datel PowerTag, personally. If you have a phone that does NFC, you can use TagMo to write it instead of the godawful desktop app. I just keep one in my Switch case. I generally use my actual Amiibos, though, since I own way too loving many.

drat loving right it is!

Decisive Battle II and the second normal battle theme are extremely my jam!

(As are the Woodlands-based town themes, Cyrus's theme, the ruins theme, many of the preboss themes and- I think I have to stop myself here before I go full goon and just list loving everything in regards to Octopath's music themes.)

I genuinely wonder why they didn't just put the full Peach Beach Splash game on it instead.

That's just hype feedback loop and people "in the know" randomly putting crossing or animal in their posts as a tease and then if it doesn't happen they'll say "I was not talking about that you guys always get so worked up"

We all know the direct will be half Smash stuff and half online info. I know they said 3DS games as well, which means they'll just put a reminder in that Luigi's Mansion Remake is still coming this year to the 3DS and in fact NOT the Switch.
