The 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Nintendo Switch is a unique console compared to its 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:PlayStation and Xbox counterparts for a number of reasons. While its exclusives and the ability to play it on the go are the two big ones, its accompanying amiibo figures are another. Not used by all Switch owners which is a shame as not only do they often unlock fun extras in certain games, but they're also decorative whenever they're not being used.

Pretty much all of Nintendo's heavy hitters have their own selections of amiibos. That naturally includes Mario and all of his friends and enemies in the Mushroom Kingdom. Being Nintendo's biggest deal, Mario and co. may well have more amiibos than any other series or character. If you're looking to pick up some of them, we've selected a few of the very best out there right now for you to peruse and choose, saving you the trouble of having to sift through everything Nintendo has to offer.

Best Mario Amiibo Figures

Yes, I know some of you reading this on the hunt for some more interesting amiibos will be rolling your eyes right about now, but this is a list of the best Mario amiibos. It only makes sense that we kick things off with the standard Super Mario figure. If you're here to start a collection or buy a gift for someone who is starting theirs, then this is where you begin. Mario should be at the center of any and all amiibo collections, regardless of size, and what better Mario to have than one that looks like the version of Mario you think of as soon as you hear his name?

Yes, I know I'm technically cheating here, but when I discovered Cat Mario and Cat Peach's amiibos are available as a twin pack, I couldn't resist. Like so many other Mario fans, I was very excited to see Mario become a cat in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Super Mario 3D World. An excitement that wasn't replicated until Mario morphed into an elephant in the Wonder trailer. Until Elephant Mario inevitably becomes an amiibo, the very best option is him and Peach together as cats. Perhaps Elephant Mario's amiibo will be here in time for this list's 2024 update.

If there's a series of video games with low-level villains more iconic than the ones you can find throughout the Super Mario games, then I am yet to experience it. If I were to show my mom a Piranha Plant, I'm fairly confident she'd say something like, "Aren't those the flowers that try to eat Mario?" and whether a mum recognizes something from a video game is the real acid test. As for why you should grab the Piranha Plant amiibo, it does cool stuff to the character in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but it is going to cost you.

One of the most impressive things about almost 40 years of Mario games is Nintendo's ability to basically tell the same story over and over again but keep us coming back for more. Bowser kidnaps Peach, and you assume the role of Mario to rescue her. The best telling of that story to date may well have been in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Super Mario Odyssey. Not only because it's a fantastic game, but because Bowser really pulled out all the stops when it came to his wedding suit. Smart as hell, it makes for a pretty neat amiibo.

When you have a mascot as popular as Mario at your disposal, you celebrate every single anniversary they have. When Mario turned 30 a while ago, one of the ways Nintendo celebrated was by creating a couple of amiibos depicting how its original plumber looked in his very first game. My personal favorite is the one that has modern colors added to it. The only problem is it's going to cost you a lot of money since the figure was limited edition and most of those who own them naturally don't really want to part with them.

Not introduced until 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Super Mario Galaxy, Rosalina doesn't tend to get as much love as she deserves. Even though she was nowhere to be seen in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Super Mario Bros. Movie, the short but memorable role an imprisoned Luma made in the film might well mean Rosalina gets a starring role in the sequel. Until then, celebrate the character in amiibo form, but again, the rarity of this figure means it's going to cost you to make it a part of our collection. The next entry won't have that potentially annoying asterisk alongside it, promise.

Weird, odd, different, quirky. Whatever word you use to describe Luigi, we all love him. As for that quirkiness, nothing encapsulates it better than the pose he is striking in this amiibo. Those of you who play Smash Ultimate will likely recognize it as the pose Luigi pulls when he wins. It's a pose he has been using for at least three Smash games to my knowledge, and even after some light research, I still have no idea why. Keep being you Luigi, and I'll keep buying your amiibos and using you to waste fools in Smash.

You really didn't think I was going to write this entire list without any mention of Yoshi, did you? Mario's dinosaur buddy is one of my favorite things about the Mushroom Kingdom, hence my disappointment when he wasn't included in the movie. Well other than the herd of them that stampedes past very briefly and the... wait, is it okay to talk about spoilers yet? I won't for the ten people who still haven't seen the Mario movie who might be reading this. As for this amiibo, a figure made of yarn somehow makes Yoshi even cuter than he already is. The only problem is you're probably going to want all three versions of this one.

FAQ

What Do The Mario Amiibos Do?

M🐼ario amiibos all have different uses. Some of the above will unlock different and unique outfits in certain Mario games, while others will unlock characters in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Tap your amiibo on your Switch to see what it can do for you.

What Is The Rarest Amiibo?

While some of the amiibos included on this list are pretty pricey, none of them crack the top ten of the figures that are currently considered to be the rares🔥t. Mega Man Gold Edition and Mega Yarn Yoshi are cons♉idered to be two of the most sought-after amiibos right now.

Is It Better To Keep Amiibos In Their Boxes?

While most collectibles are more valuable when kept in their boxes, doing that with amiibos kind of defeats the point of owning them. The main reason for buying them is so they can be used to get in-game items which usually can't be achieved without removing them from their packaging.
