Thus far, we’ve seen amiibo incorporated into both Wii U and 3DS. The functionality is likely to be integrated into NX as well. But what about smart devices, which Nintendo is now supporting quite a bit?

Shigeru Miyamoto appears to be open to the idea. Speaking with IGN, Miyamoto mentioned: “There’s nothing we can announce today but it’s certainly an area we’re interested in, and today Apple announced some new news about their NFC technology.”

It’s not a confirmation, but that sounds like a very positive response. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see amiibo-supported mobile titles in the future.

Just like Lucina, Palutena, and other amiibo, the official Children’s Product Certificate for Ness has been updated. The figure received a new run of manufacturing for August.

We’re assuming that a Ness amiibo restock should be on the horizon. With all of the certificate updates over the past couple of weeks, a bunch of figures might be returning soon.

Many Nintendo games these days have some sort of amiibo support, and Mario Sports Superstars will fall into that trend. The functionality is confirmed through an official screenshot shown above. The menu shows “amiibo Card” – whatever that means. Might the Mario series be receiving its own line of amiibo cards?

Nintendo first updated the CPSIA for Lucina’s amiibo. Then we heard about the same thing for Palutena. Now another slew of figures have received updated certificates.

More CPSIAs have been updated in North America. These include the Gold Mario amiibo, Robin, Pit, Mega Man, Sonic, Link, and Samus. We’ll see them back in stores soon, hopefully!
