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.

Monolith Soft recently opened the Xenoblade Chronicles X teaser site and have been quite surprised at the traffic the site has recieved.

As we previously reported, according to the new site the game is nearing the final stages of completion.
Recently, the newly opened site experienced an overload due to so many fans checking it out that Monolith Soft has had to scramble and come up with a solution to figure out new server rental plans.

According to Monolith Soft, the main problem came from the number of fans downloading the Theme song from the front page as well as those who where listening to it on a loop.

To fix the problem, they’ve decided to turn off the loop and lower the bit rate for the track.

Finally, at the end of their blog post, they teased, “Huh? Online elements? Of course (the game) will have some!”.

As the site continues to be updated we will keep you posted, stay tuned for future announcements.

Xenoblade Chronicles X is expected to release in 2015.

The one large change we made to this stage is this Hylian text. I wonder what it says? Also featured in this pic is Link in Fierce Deity colors.

Nintendo’s Japanese amiibo website confirms additional functionality for some figures.

First, Toon Link will be compatible in Mario Kart 8 – likely another Mii costume. Toon Link, Zelda, and Sheik are also supported in Hyrule Warriors.

You may recall that Nintendo announced amiibo functionality for all of the Smash Bros. figures in Hyrule Warriors during last week’s Nintendo Direct. However, it seems that Toon Link, Zelda, and Sheik will offer unique functionality rather than randomly selected materials, weapons and rupees.
