How to Add an amiibo to a Smash Battle (Super Smash Bros. Wii U)

Wii U

In this article, you'll learn how to use an amiibo in a Smash Battle.

Note
  • If you use an amiibo, the data saved on it can appear in battles as an FP (figure player).
  • FPs can stand against you as rivals or fight by your side as partners.
  • You cannot control the amiibo FP during battle.

Complete these steps

  1. At the Main Menu, select Smash and press the A Button.
  2. Select a Smash Battle Mode and press the A Button.
  3. At the character-selection screen, touch an amiibo to the Wii U GamePad's NFC touchpoint. The amiibo figure player will appear and join the battle as a rival player.
    • To set an amiibo as a team player, change the Smash Battle to a Team Battle and set the amiibo to the same color team as your player.
  4. Once all players have joined the Smash Battle, press the +Button to begin.
