After Nintendo announced the new Zelda: Breath of the Wild at E3, we learned that Japan would be receiving a 4-pack of the figures. Urbosa, Revali, Mipha, and Daruk will be sold together for those who are interested.
As it turns out, this 4-pack won’t just be for Japan. A similar listing has appeared on the amiibo site in Germany. The only difference between the two is that each character lines up correctly in the packaging.

Pokken Tournament made use of amiibo on Wii U, but only in a really small way. Early copies included a Shadow Mewtwo card, allowing players to unlock the character right away.
For Pokken Tournament DX, amiibo compatibility will be back. It’s just unclear if there will be more extensive support for the functionality compared to the Wii U original.
