Amiibo (Wii U)
Nintendo revealed a new concept that works in tandem with Super Smash Bros. called Amiibo, which is similar to Skylander. Figurines of Mario and other Nintendo characters have a chip at the bottom that connects to your Wii Gamepad. It unlocks new abilities for your characters in the game and is also able to save data on the chip too. This allows the player to have customizable Amiibos. Nintendo announced that Mario Kart 8 will have Amiibo support.
