just scanned all 11 powertags and all functioned using different amiibos, including unreleased ones.

i guess its just a game of luck when getting them.

i also just noticed all 10 that came in were solid, i could shake them and it made no sound. the original that came with the base feels like its loose, i shake it and can hear the tag or whatever is inside of it shake. its still totally functional even with over a dozen re-writes to it. did any of yours come like my original one did?

None feel loose, even the two broken ones. One of the broken ones is actually from the one that came with the NFC R/W. I can't find anything distinct about the broken tags.


If anyone has a 3D Printer, I just made a holder to put all your power tags in, if it may come in handy: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2209361 :)

Getting this error, can someone help me out? I'm using python3 in a bash shell through Ubuntu on Windows, yes in sounds kinda complicated but if done tons of stuff with python in the past like this and it was working fine. I'm guessing it's just something with how the path is set to find amiitool.exe , but im not sure.

"amiitool.exe: not found"
Might want to check for that file.

This is the code that is causing the problem. amiitool.exe is not found. Other than checking that is there, reinstalling Python might be a way to fix it.

here's what my file system looks like, I suppose I can reinstall python but it's such a pain to get it all configured, so I'd rather try some other stuff first.

Upload the bin's to your phone somewhere where you can reach them with amiibitz. Locate in the settings to the base folder of the bins, to make it easy.
Scan your n2 Tag, set bank number if needed, then go to manage Bank. Select a Slot, Hold, Restore => select 1 bin file by setting the checkmark and press ok. Hold the Tag to the Phone. Done

call it from the windows cmd. The linux cmd could have problems calling the .exe (don't know if it even can call the .exe since it is a lightwight linux os as far as i know)

You're running it from a linux environment via a mounted Windows file system. This won't work as I used the function os.system() to call the command which means it's running the command in the shell and not in WINE (which Im assuming you would be using as the file included is for Windows and not linux).

All that said, there is a native linux version of amiitool and the script can be adjusted to work for linux natively. But as it is it won't work in WINE (because Amiitool does not work in WINE) and thus you would need to install Python 3 in Windows and run it from the Windows environment.

Thanks for the help guys, I got it working in command prompt. Had to make sure that python3 was in the PATH environmental variable. Then I just used the script normally with py -3

Incase this hasn't been pointed out yet, this has been added to the powersaves software... (I only saw this after updating it earlier)

OMFG. I feel so honored, lol.

They also added Wolf Heart cheat code (Listed under Breath of the Wild, not Twilight Princess) but yet did not update their Amiibo name database to recognize the new Amiibo.

I just get this (picture below) whenever I try this, whether through CMD prompt or through drag and drop. I'm on Windows 10 64-Bit and I installed Python just for this with no custom configuration. Do I have to configure Python or something?

https://github.com/DarkIrata/AmiiboSN-Changer/releases/tag/v1.0.1.0
Here is a version with a gui.
Also it supports now a third parameter as output path.
I tried this and it generated a file that's invisible to Explorer in Windows, but visible in the GUI if I go to the path. When I check the file properties, Windows tells me its size is 540 byte, but 0 byte on the disk.

I just can't seem to get this to work no matter what I do. Could someone who has managed to get this to work just generate 50 Breath of the Wild Guardian Amiibos and 50 SSB Zelda Amiibos for me and upload them somewhere for me to download? It's the only ones I "need" duplicates of.

Try to use amiitool.exe with the parameters shown in the attached screenshot. And tell us what error you get.
Looks like the amiibo is broken or did you have problems with multiple amiibos?

I was using that Random Serial thing in the amiibo powersaves program and it eventuallly fried the tag I was using(not a Powertag btw, it's a Namiio tag, not sure if that makes a difference). I have an extra one thankfully, but I was thinking of buying those powertags from my local EB Games. Now my question is: will those powertags work on the Namiio program? I already have backups on it, so that's why if I end up getting those powertags I would rewrite them with the saves I have in namiio.

Can't talk for the Namiio, but powersaves is getting slightly known to fry tags somehow.

I tried multiple Amiibo tags, all of which I've verified as working before by writing them to blank NTAG215s.

Using CMD and typing in amiitool.exe -d -k key_retail.bin -i Zelda.bin -o decrypt.bin gives me nothing. Literally nothing. CMD stops for a few seconds and then I just get a new empty line in CMD.

Mhmm. That is some strange behavior.. 100% right Key_retail? since i had few problems with a few ones.
