According to an IGN report, amiibo figures are not region locked. The site was able to register an American figure with a Japanese profile following yesterday’s Wii U firmware update. That’s certainly good news!

amiibo figures will only be able to hold information for one game at a time, Nintendo has confirmed.

That news has been revealed via a notice posted on the Japanese amiibo website. The message states:

“Amiibo can only store data for one read/write compatible game at a time. If you wish to use the data from other read/write compatible software, please erase the data in the ‘Amiibo settings’ section of the Wii U settings menu.”

Keep in mind that amiibo figures with already-stored data can still be used for ready-only games.

Rodea: The Sky Soldier has finally resurfaced. The game, which was first announced for Wii and 3DS in January 2011, is coming out in Japan this spring.

It should come as no surprise that the Wii version of Rodea has been scrapped, and the game is now coming to Wii U (and 3DS still) instead. Interestingly, Famitsu reveals that first print copies of the Wii U version contain the bonus of the Wii version – what this means exactly is currently unclear.

Rodea: The Sky Soldier features huge bosses that are many hundreds times the size of Rodea himself. Famitsu also has a look at three previously mentioned characters.
