AMAZON Thrift

There are 3 requirements for making amiibos you can use on your Switch/Wii U/3DS. NFC writing capability - generally this means only Android phones with NFC, but apparently it is possible to buy an NFC reader/writer for PC but it is more complicated. NFC Ntag215 stickers - these are little stickers that have a specific type of nfc chip in them that you can buy for really cheap. I bought mine on Amazon because I didn't want to wait for 1 month to get them in from China.  Mine came with 11 ntag215 stickers and got to my house in about 2 days   Only NTAG215 works, 213,216 and other common stickers DO NOT WORK. The TagMo app for Android and .bin files of the amiibo you want to put on your sticker. I'll let you guys google that one, they aren't hard to find. Okay, so you got your stickers and phone with NFC writing, now what? On your Android device go to Settings > Security > Unknown Sources (turn on). This makes it so that you can install apps that ar

These cards came with a cute snap-shut binder with enough pages to hold each card individually. This is so much easier than lugging around 20 Amiibo figurines especially when traveling. Holding them to the game controller works just the same way that an Amiibo figurine does. I’ve attached a video of how the cards work - you just hold the end of the card above the NFC part of the controller and it’ll be recognized in 2-3 seconds. These cards are what I was looking for for the price I was looking for. Amiibos are not cheap and will run you about $15-$18 new after taxes. These cards function just like amiibos and you get a good selection for only $20. They're a good size and it comes with a little album to hold them all. The art on the cards is clearly knock-off versions of the original characters but that doesn't really bother me, in fact I actually find them amusing. For $20, this is good value and I would 100% recommend these cards. Awesome money-saver on expensive Amiib

After using this controller for a while, I am very happy that I found it. I chose this controller because it was the first third party remote, I found that had an NFC reader. It reads amiibos perfectly, and is very easy to use. Like the pro controller, the NFC reader is in the center of the controller. It is comfortable to use and reminds me of an SNES controller. The pairing process was straightforward, and I did not have any problems connecting it. Another feature that I really like about this controller is that it includes a turbo button. I don’t use it all the time, but it is nice to have for some games. This controller also has motion controls which is needed for some games. With Smash bros. releasing soon, I was looking for a more affordable controller to buy, and this one has been perfect for me. I recommend it for any looking for a “pro” like controller at an affordable price. Learn more
