That's very disappointing.Actually, there's a question, albeit a slightly defeatist one.
If Daisy did, unfortunately, get a small role, what would you guys settle for? 
Assist Trophy.Actually, there's a question, albeit a slightly defeatist one.
That's also my own answer to the question.
Doing fine, busy as usual.
It's not a rumour - it's been proven via datamining. Basically, some recent and upcoming games that support Corrin have code pointing to a specific variant version for Female Corrin.
Ah, well, if we're talking a playable small role, yeah, I'd be fine with the alt route as well. I didn't think of that when I asked the original question, and actually meant non-playable stuff.
I wouldn't say that, remember the same thing happened with Little Mac? Sure he had a new game afterwards, but the Assist Trophy never really killed off his fandom and show off a good deal of attacks that would make it to his moveset. So Daisy being an Assist Trophy wouldn't do any severe damage at all.
Yeah, I've been disappointed in that for a long time, and I'm even more disappointed by it now.
It would be strange if there are both gender options for Corrin and not for Robin. That would be some serious Fates pandering when Awakening was the true savior of the franchise. But I'd rather not talk about cospicary theories of favoritism for any Fire Emblem series just because of Amiibo functionality.
That's... Hmmm...
tbh, I'd be fine with her just getting a couple of trophies again. I'm of the mind that characters as alts should be used sparingly, so I'd rather keep the Daisy inspired recolor we already have. Maybe an AT could work and I'm curious how they'd go about it, but again, I'd rather they not use her for that. Last but not least would be as a Mii costume. That, I'd be perfectly fine with.Actually, there's a question, albeit a slightly defeatist one.
Really? They are catering to all those who want a female Corrin amiibo but not those who want a certain Koopaling amiibo?It's not a rumour - it's been proven via datamining. Basically, some recent and upcoming games that support Corrin have code pointing to a specific variant version for Female Corrin.

Making Corrin male by default was a stupid idea to begin with. FCorrin is arguably much more popular than the Koopalings too. There's also the argument that FCorrin and MCorrin are technically the same character, but the Koopalings are 7 different characters.
I assume you mean exclusively in the very focussed online Smash fandom, here, rather than in the big picture?
Right, though it's probably the smash fandom in general along with the FE fandom. Ninty would probably make more money making and selling a FCorrin amiibo than making 7 different Koopalings.I assume you mean exclusively in the very focussed online Smash fandom, here, rather than in the big picture?
I would imagine that that's unlikely, considering that much of the market for Amiibo is still viewing them as a collectible item, rather than as a game accessory, and classic Nintendo characters have proven to be very popular in that regard.
Oh, well then I guess I don't have an answer on why FCorrin was chosen and not the Koopalings, I'm just super glad I can get a Corrin amiibo I like. They gotta do it for Robin next.
It's certainly very odd, especially when factoring in the fact that the other problem they've had with driving adoption of Amiibo as game accessories, has been due to lapsed gamers buying Amiibo of famous characters they remember from the old days for nostalgia's sake. A lot of sales were coming from that, and I'd imagine they still are, judging by which characters seem to be evergreen in sales.
Or the Koopalings? Or male Wii Fit Trainer? Or wireframe Little Mac, since Little Mac has sixteen alts, with half of them being wireframe?
I'd imagine they are holding back because there is only one game where the Koopalings are playable to begin with and that is Mario Kart 8. While Fire Emblem Echoes is at least capitalizing on new Amiibo functionality (IF the doing is to believed that it will be a new separate Amiibo). Which also raises the question, why not have a Female Robin too.
Well, at least we've already got Daisy.
I hope we'll see some interesting support for her Amiibo in the future, as well as, with any luck, a Smash Daisy Amiibo somewhere along the line.
Don't remind meOr wireframe Little Mac, since Little Mac has sixteen alts, with half of them being wireframe?
. Still can't believe they gave Little Mac 16 palette swaps when all other characters, including character with alts, are limited to 8.
Meanwhile, @WeirdChillFever is crying about you forgetting that Nabbit exists.
Why not Dry Bones, Hammer Bros as well to name a few?
I just hope the FFVII remake does end up coming to the Switch. Maybe we can get a whole FFVII amiibo line featuring cross-dressing Cloud and wheelchair Cloud
I lol'ed so hard at this.
I mean we already have Gold and Silver Mario, so I wouldn't put it past them. Amiibo is one of the few places where I actually wouldn't mind it as much. A Power-Up amiibo line would actually be kind of neat. Probably the only way I'd take Tanooki Mario and Cat Peach outside of the games the power-ups are actually in.Speaking of Mario Amiibo, how much you bet they will make ones of Metal Mario and Pink Gold Peach?
No lie I'd buy PGP amiibo in a heartbeat.Speaking of Mario Amiibo, how much you bet they will make ones of Metal Mario and Pink Gold Peach?
Never underestimate Nintendo when we did get Silver, Golden, and two pixel versions of Mario before.Speaking of Mario Amiibo, how much you bet they will make ones of Metal Mario and Pink Gold Peach?
Only the OG Yoshi's Island babies (Mario and Luigi) would interest me.But would you all be willing to buy Baby amiibo?
I thought you hated Honey Queen.Never underestimate Nintendo when we did get Silver, Golden, and two pixel versions of Mario before.
Actually, that would be pretty cool if it also gives them the idea to create a Honey Queen Amiibo.
Ooooooooh, give me Baby Peach and Baby Daisy. I wouldn't also mind Baby Mario and Luigi either.But would you all be willing to buy Baby amiibo?
They come as a set. You have no choice.I thought you hated Honey Queen.
Or Pink Gold Peach makes you miss her alot.
Ooooooooh, give me Baby Peach and Baby Daisy. I wouldn't also mind Baby Mario and Luigi either.
Anything but Baby Wario.
Game and Watch? yeah i can see it.
I'm quite certain that they're already in the works.Speaking of Mario Amiibo, how much you bet they will make ones of Metal Mario and Pink Gold Peach?
Well, just as long as they also make Coach Penguin...Actually, that would be pretty cool if it also gives them the idea to create a Honey Queen Amiibo.
1 Dry Bones shell without the Koopa skeleton XD.Speaking of Mario Amiibo, how much you bet they will make ones of Metal Mario and Pink Gold Peach?
The car was probably a way to spice things up, but at the cost of no free control and making things too fair. Thus killing the series' reputation of destroying friendships. That's my main gripe with recent Mario Parties.
In the same way Siper-Man games keep simplifying the controls when the involved swinging mechanics were what made Spider-Man 2 fun in the first place?
