Mario Kart 8 Amiibo Compatibility

Nintendo has confirmed that Mario Kart 8 will support Amiibo functionality. Amiibo functionality will be added to Mario Kart 8 in a software update on Thursday, November 13, 2014, at the same time the first DLC pack goes live. Amiibo figurines will give you a costume for your Mii to wear, the costume for the character as your figurine. You will only need to have the game read your Amiibo figurine once to get a costume. The following Amiibo figurines will be compatible:
  • Mario
  • Luigi
  • Princess Peach
  • Yoshi
  • Donkey Kong
  • Link
  • Captain Falcon
  • Kirby
  • Samus Aran
  • Fox McCloud
  • Toon Link
Toon Link will come later, as the Toon Link Amiibo figure has just been confirmed in Japan for Thursday, January 22, 2015, with no mention of a release date for North America or Europe at this time.
