Super Mario Odyssey hits the Switch this October, and as you might expect from a major Nintendo release, it has its own range of amiibo figures for you to collect / pay over the odds for on eBay.
The five figures are Koopa Troopa, Goomba, Mario, Peach and Bowser, with the latter three figures all wearing wedding attire, in keeping with scenes from the game itself.
Just when we thought we'd gotten over these lumps of plastic, Nintendo pulls us right back in again.

No I won't. I want to ditch them at the altar. That's 11 SCamiibo announced so far at E3 and it hasn't even started.
Edit: I was wrong, there's 13. They're spawning everywhere.
Definitely looking forward to the wedding figures, not particularly interested in the goomba or koopa ones
The Goomba amiibo will work in Super Mario Maker by the way.
Also, they announced that Super Mario Odyssey will support older Mario series amiibo! I am HYPED for crossdressing Daisy!
I still can't wrap my mind around Bowser wanting to marry Peach. It's a bit...weird.
I will happily buy ALL amiibo as long as I can find them
Somebody is going to get married with Mario and Peach on top of their wedding cake. I'm looking forward to the article on NL labeled "Weird".
@memoryman3 Crossdressing Daisy? What?
I think they're overdoing these amiibo a bit. They could at least tell us what the 11 new ones do. It's like they're trying to hide something.
The Smash Bros. versions of Mario, Peach and Bowser better function identically to these new ones in Odyssey. It's ridiculous to expect consumers to buy multiple figures of the same character.
Sure but first id pass on my hopes and genes to the next generation and become a zombie.
Bowser and peach look amazing
Mario, Princess Peach & even Bowser are wearing White Wedding Formalwear !
Could it be a hint for Special Switch bundle including Super Mario Odyssey games + Amiibo + White Nintendo Switch ??
@SLIGEACH_EIRE Dont worry no one except scalpers will get hold of them
@SLIGEACH_EIRE I'm still not understanding how these are a scam.
FINALLY! a Goomba Amiibo!
I have DrMario Amiibo, I actually will be able to play as Dr Mario in this game?? I'm super excited about that! I'm not going to buy wedding figures I just don't like wedding but Koopa looks nice, I could buy it sooner or later.
I like the koopa & goomba ones and im pleased theyll match the lovely mario series ones. Now we need bowser jr, birdo and toadetter please!
I'm interested, since they're unique outfits. Depends what they do, but Koopa and Goomba can do one. At least put Mario's hat on them. Also I can't believe we haven't yet had a Goomba amiibo??
Is it weird that I only want the Koopa Troopa amiibo?
@rjejr
And how are they going to label it when someone marries with Peach and Bowser or Bowser and Mario?
As usual, count me in. Loving the Bowser, like how can he wear a suit under the shell? I guess it is removable then.
For goodness sake, Nintendo announced more new Amiibo than games in this year's E3!!
I have several Goomba figurines on my desk at work, some that I have probably paid more than the price of an amiibo for.
2 metroid amiibos and a goomba, and then I'm not going to buy ANY MORE AMIIBOS!! (except maybe Cloud)
((...and maybe a Dark Pit))
@legendwaker That's always been his goal. See The Great Mission to Rescue Princess Peach and Super Paper Mario.
@Kalmaro They've content locked behind them.
Throws money at screen
My wallet.
My poor wallet.
I said I wanted more amiibo related stuff from E3 and I've not been disappointed. Just bring on some more motion control and I'll be very happy!
@SLIGEACH_EIRE Sounds like plain ol' dlc. Just with the ability to work on other games in some cases. Do you have an issue with dlc in general then?
I'll take 20 Pimp Bowsers
Koopa and Goomba, here. I just have Peach and Mario, and I'm happy withm them.
@legendwaker It's fine if Bowser kidnaps Peach, but now he wants to marry her?!? Now THAT'S going too far!
@legendwaker Peach and Bowser also did this same thing in Super Paper Mario.
Nintendo UK Official Store has just listed all three new Splatoon 2 amiibo.
https://store.nintendo.co.uk/games/nintendo-switch/splatoon-2.list
@legendwaker Hopefully he only wants to marry her for the legal right to claim her kingdom. Let's tell ourselves that..
I want all the announced (so far amiibo) but I am nervous about retail locking in the US. Makes it needlessly difficult to buy these.
Glad to see Koopa and Goomba get amiibos!
Too bad there's no Luigi...
Mmmnn, I'm not really sure about amiibo that are super-specific to one particular entry in a franchise. Like all the BotW amiibo when there are so many classic Zelda characters that we still haven't got.
Yay, Goomba amiibo! Peach in a wedding dress is cute.
Maybe I missed it but I didn't see on NL when the Link amiibo a went on sale or that some were exclusives. That would be good info to provide the community for all these new ones. I wanted a few of the Link ones but missed out.
Mipha Amiibo and Pimp Bowser Amiibo releasing this year? This is the best year ever for me.
I just want Koopa Troopa and Goomba.
Mario seems more like a tuxedo t-shirt kind of guy, or maybe I'm just thinking of Captain Lou Albano?
Peach's position in that image, along with her upraised hands, makes it look as though she can't make up her mind on whether to marry Mario or Bowser. XD
So much for Game Theory's idea that Peach and Luigi are the real couple and Rosalina is their baby. Looks like it has always been Mario and Peach after all............ except you CAN win older games with Luigi and save her....
so where does LUIGI fit into this? Better be playable. No Mario 64 fiasco again please.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE
Amiibo are toys. Not a SCAM !
Nintendo DOESN'T Force you to buy them !
What's wrong to spend $20 - $30 for a toys like that ??
I want that White Tuxedo Mario if I have a chance to buy.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE
So What if there are some Unlockable Contents inside Amiibos ?
It just Optional items, will not affect the Main storyline or gameplay. You can choose which one do you like. You WILL NOT Regret after buy it.
Say... I knew that actually you have some Amiibos for certain games... right ?
@sinalefa Somebody will get married w/ Bowser and Mario or Bowser and Peach but it will only go viral on twitter when it happens w/ Mario and Peach, that's the photo NL will cover. See, I got it covered.
Just saw the box art for the first time, very nice. i think I need to make that my first Switch purchase. Think there's any chance we'll get a $350 Switch and Mario bundle? That would make a great Christmas gift. Well a Christmas gift we opened Oct 27, but whatever, we can always wrap the box and put it under the tree later.
@rjejr
Hi.
Speaking about Super Mario Odyssey bundle, hopefully there will be White Nintendo Switch as Limited Edition bundle considering Three of them (Mario, Princess Peach & Bowser) are wearing White Wedding outfits, as well their Amiibos.
White Nintendo Switch is Perfect for me as a symbol of Purity & Innocence.
@rjejr
Not sure about the price but there will most likely be a bundle. Now that they said that Xeno 2 hits this year, you will definitely need that Switch. You should get it earlier to take advantage of the free online, though
Part of me wants to say no way to these, but then the other part says go for it. Count me in so long as I can find them.
Where is the Daisy amiibo to scoop the dudes and woo Peach for herself?
Amiibo's are crack lol
Peach looks like she can't decide who she should marry.
@Anti-Matter Amiibo are a scam!
@Ichiban
Sorry, I don't think Amiibo are scam.
I consider Amiibo and Amiibo cards as TOYS.
@legendwaker Haven't you played Super Paper Mario?
@LegacySmikey Kyoto 2020. Is that Olympics related or do you have perfect vision?
I got married in 2000, but it wasn't on purpose. Well we got married on purpose, but I just happen to propose in 1999 and we got married the next year. 2001 we bought a house, 2002 we had a kid.
Good luck getting the amiibo, don't wait, they'll go fast. And congratulations.
@sinalefa "the free online"
Zelda, Mario, XC2. No online for me. If the kids want it they can pay for it themselves.
I wonder if Shulk amiibo will work in XC2? Maybe give us a Monado skin for the sword? Not that I own one, but if they make some I'd pick one up, put him on my shelf next to Cloud.
@Anti-Matter White Nintendo Switch
I never thought about a white Switch before, just a white box for a bundle, but yeah, that would be really cool and set it apart from the gray one. Personally I dont' like anything in white, rather have a Mario red Switch, but I know a lot of people prefer white so it would certainly sell out. And I would buy 1 if it was the only way to get a Mario Odyssey bundle.
Did I ever tell you the story about how I bought my Wii U about 1 week before they announced the Wind Waker HD bundle with the special Gamepad design? I'm not buying a Switch until Mario Odyssey is on the shelf. If they are going to have any bundles this holiday, maybe with 1 2 Switch, they'll probably announce it in September.
@rjejr
I thought you paid for PS Plus so one of your kids could play online? In any case, if they are learning the Way of the Cheapo they should ask you get the Switch this year the earliest so they can take advantage of the free online.
@sinalefa My kids are practical, we don't need a Switch right now, we have Rare Replay to play, and they are finishing up Zelda on Wii U to get to it. And while we won't wait for a price drop, $299 is fine, I'd hate to get one now and then have a Mario bundle come out for Christmas. It's all about Black Friday weekend.
@krisi
Yes I have. (: I'm just saying i still can't wrap my mind around it sometimes. Lol I love the amiibo though. They look amazing.
