IS THAT LINK IN A KART????

They did? I remember them saying that there would be Amiibos available for SSB and MK8, but I don't ever recall them saying that the SSB figures would be compatible with MK8.

You can take the Mario amiibo and use it in Smash Bros., but then you'll be able to use it across different games that Mario appears in. For example, you can use the Smash Bros. Mario figure and use it in Mario Kart 8 when that functionality releases. You can also use that same Mario figure in Mario Party 10. So for the amiibo project in general, we're looking at having all of the figures be useable across a lot of Nintendo titles and not just the one game the figure was [visually] designed for.
