Super Mario Maker Supports Sonic, Pit & Splatoon Amiibo

Posted on August 18, 2015 by Rae Michelle Richards

Remember a few months ago back at E3 when Nintendo revealed that certain Amiibo like the Wii Fit trainer would change Mario’s sprite in Super Mario Maker?  Well it turns out you can earn this skins for the red plumber without forking over nearly forty bucks for a Wii Fit trainer or other rare Amiibo. They can be unlocked by completing the 100 Mario challenge instead!

Super Mario Maker launches on the Nintendo Wii U on September 11th!
