Minecraft Amiibo Receive September Release Date
Blocky Brilliance
Super Smash Bros. titles, in particular, the latest entry Super Smash Bros. Ultimate have been a gigantic cash cow for Nintendo, from the initial hardware and software sales that come with the launch of a new game, but also more notably for the last two (or is it three given there was a Wii U/3DS SKU?) core entries, the profits have been even juicier thanks to the inclusion of Amibo functionality. The toys-to-life figures have been a hit with Nintendo fans, and as every new fighter comes to Ultimate, a new batch of Amiibo comes to retailers. This week, Nintendo have officially revealed that after some delays, that the next figures were on the way this September – Minecraft’s Steve, and Alex. Yes, they’re doubling dipping by doing two for one.
Both Steve and Alex were added to the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate fighter roster way back in later 2020, so the release of these figures, two years later, has certainly been a long time coming, but in a tweet from Nintendo they revealed that both figures would arrive on September 9th, 2022
