I've heard from multiple people that the figures can not be read through the packaging on the Wii u pad. However Walmart etc could have special adaptations of the Wii u pad etc that would allow it.

They can be read from the package if you remove the foil. This can be done so most would not notice it.

Umm so that whole f*cking display at Wal-Mat where they say TAKE THE AMIIBO FROM THE SHELF AND PLACE IT HERE TO SEE IT IN ACTION... except for that you must be correct, or do I need to show you the foil piece and what is inside of it... not to mention you make some bold claims about the chips too, care to post a datasheet? Or you want me to mail you and the other bulls*tters here a garden hose, and a pack of Kools so you can more effectively blow smoke up my ass...?


Can someone post a picture of this kind of display? I've seen only one kind of display in my search for Amiibo, and it has interactivity, but nothing between the actual Amiibo and the display. I've tried using all sorts of readers on packaged Amiibo and I can't get anything because of the foil sticker in the packaging, so if this kind of display does exist, it's probably not communicating with the figure itself.

With that said, I've been watching this discussion for the past month to see if anything comes out of it so I could tell whether or not to open my collection... but I finally have and so if anyone wants raw data from the wave 1 and 2 Amiibo, I can probably supply it.

No need to get angry, man. I'm not here to blow smoke up your or anyone else's ass, I'm just saying it like it is.

I'm no expert on NFC, but I am a computer engineer, own all the amiibo, and have been working with NFC via Android a lot lately.

Regarding datasheets, that's precisely where I got all the information I said in the previous post. However, I'm not going to link them because, honestly, I'm just way too lazy. Have a scan of the amiibo's yourself and do a Google search or two on the information that comes back - you'll come to the exact same conclusion.

In all honesty, I hope you prove me wrong, as it will make my life much more convenient. However, given the way everything is currently looking, it'll be a long time before that happens.

"NFC tags contain data (currently between 96 and 4,096 bytes of memory) and are typically read-only, but may be rewriteable." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Near_field_communication

There are tons of sources on the net saying once a manufacture makes the chip read-only it is locked to read-only. No smoke up anyone's ass here.

Uhh, am I missing something, or is there no way to download that?
You can only download it if your phone or tablet has NFC, and officially has Android 4.4+. I have CM11 on my phone, but I can download it.

PS
That or it was removed from google play. It could also be fake.

There is a whole other thread about this already. Some of the participants had claimed to have written apps to record and therefore playback amiibo info so that you could carry a catalog of NFC info in your phone and use that with the wiiu. I wanted to back up my pokemon rumble figures. They were Nintendo's first attempt at this. Unfortunately I can't find anymore of them here in the US. I got the first complete set they released and haven't seen them since. I guess that's a good thing because 720 + at $3 is a whole lot of other games.

So you have downloaded it? Because it seems like it was taken of the play store, but if someone has downloaded it, they could upload the apk somewhere else.
