As it stands, it’s clear that Nintendo is still drumming up ideas for its aging 3DS hardware. The following is a list of the Animal Crossing series amiibo cards. With the runaway success of the Nintendo Switch, we wonder if Nintendo would bring this trading card set to the Switch as well. There are 100 different cards in each series. Players will be able to use these vibrantly designed amiibo cards in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Each pack contains three randomly selected amiibo cards from the series: 3 special amiibo card and 2 regular amiibo cards.
Nintendo filed for the patent in November. Collect & connect with amiibo cards Collect these character cards or trade with friends. 400 cards were manufactured in all. More recently, Nintendo released a more basic line of Amiibo cards for Mario Sports Superstars that unlocked character power-ups and new gear.
Cards for use in three recent Animal Crossing games - Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer (3DS), Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival (Wii U), and Animal Crossing: New Leaf (3DS) - each had either a rock, paper, or scissors icon and a number from a die. It would seem that users could upload data to their 3DS’ and play against one another in games of chance.Īlthough the new cards have a different design, those symbols were previously used in another line of Amiibo cards. Because they can be used in-game, Amiibo cards are a worthy gift for anyone who. And each card shows a number 1-6 on a die on the right side. If you dont play Animal Crossing: selling, and trading desirable items. Each card represents either rock, paper, or scissors (as shown in the upper lefthand corner). It does appear that there would be some “game” involved with the cards. The obvious assumption is that Nintendo is tinkering with the idea of making a series of Pokémon cards that interact with the Nintendo 3DS, but the patent images of characters named John, Beth, and Mike certainly don’t provide concrete clues. In one of the figures in the document, a card is shown hovering above a Nintendo 3DS to demonstrate its contactless technology that takes the data from the card and stores it on the device.
Namely, the trading cards are cards manufactured and sold aiming at exchange or collection of pictures on each surface thereof.” Unlike Amiibo, though, the trading card set appears to be just that - a series of cards designed to be collected and traded.Ī section of the patent reads: “The trading cards refer to cards on which variously different pictures are depicted and a purpose thereof is collection and exchanged. Nintendo filed a patent for a trading card set that uses NFC technology (like Amiibo). There’s also always the chance this patent is for a project that might never see release, so we’ll have to wait and see if anything comes of it. This could be something that’s much cheaper for Nintendo to manufacture, and die-hard Nintendo fans would still be eager to get their hands on them, especially if they unlock exclusive content in other video games.Įither way, Amiibo-powered cards aren’t something new for Nintendo, as the company has previously released a line of cards for several Animal Crossing games on the 3DS and Wii U, and more recently a set of Amiibo cards for Mario Sports Superstars.
The easiest assumption to jump to is that this patent could reflect Nintendo’s plans to make a new Pokemon trading card game, one where the physical card battle game is played with the trading cards themselves, with the ability for each card to unlock or add digital content to a corresponding video game - perhaps a new Pokemon title on the Switch?Īlternatively, this might indicate that Nintendo could simply be revamping the Amiibo product line to be based around collectible cards instead of small plastic figures. Another image shows the cards hovering just above a Nintendo 3DS system in order to depict the contactless nature of the NFC tech. One mock-up image shows the cards featuring character artwork, along with several stat numbers and other symbols that could depict game-related abilities or functions.
