Update 4: GAME is now taking pre-orders for the Shovel Knight amiibo.


Update 3: Bumped to the top. 4u2play’s listing is interesting, as it mentions co-op on Wii U and the ability to customize Shovel Knight.

Here’s the full translation (thanks Jake):

  • Special Coop-Moves support you on your journey together.

Full flexibility:

  • Enter the level where you destroy your enemies and find precious treasures
  • Earn never seen relicts, skills and powers.
  • Alter the appearance of your Shovel Knight with cool cosmetic details.

User your personal amiibo seamless on Wii U and 3DS.

  • The Shovel Knight amiibo will work with all Nintendo Products that Yacht Club Games will create in the near future.
  • Compatible with Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo 3DS XL, Nintendo 2DS and Wii U.

Update 2: The Shovel Knight amiibo has also been listed by 4u2play.
