Chibi-Robo!: Zip Lash has plenty of amiibo support. The Chibi-Robo figure itself can be used to turn the in-game character into “Super Chibi Robo”, and to obtain the Toy Capsule Machine.

When it comes to all other amiibo, they can be tapped to earn in-game coins and buy items. Moreover, with the exception of a few characters (Pikachu, Lucario, Charizard, Greninja, Jigglypuff, Sonic, Pac-Man, and Mega Man), players can acquire a special figurine of Chibi Robo doing the pose of the amiibo in question.

Media outlets have started getting their hands on Super Mario Maker, and new details about the game are starting to trickle in. Further information about online level sharing has been found from the instruction manual.

Initially, players will only be able to upload ten courses. But this number can be increased if enough users “like” your courses. The manual also states that unpopular courses will be deleted after a certain period of time. Additionally, sound effects that have been recorded will be replaced with a generic parrot’s squawk.

The latest Super Mario Maker costume to have been revealed is none other than Ashley from the WarioWare series. Just like the Tingle outfit, this should be a standard unlock rather than something tied to amiibo. Take a look at it in the image above.
