I know it’s been sacrilege for nearly three decades now, but I’ve always preferred 2D Mario games to those newfangled 3D ones. (I’m an elder Millennial; leave grandpa to his ramblings). So I couldn’t be happier Super Mario Bros. Wonder is getting the “Switch 2 Edition + expansion” treatment in March. To celebrate the new-gen upgrade and the Meetup in Bellabel Park DLC, Nintendo is releasing three new amiibo based on the game. They cost $24.99 each, and are set to release March 26, the same day as the game’s new content. They’re available to preorder now (see them at Amazon).
Super Mario Bros. Wonder amiibo
The new amiibo are Elephant Mario, Captain Toad & Talking Flower, and Poplin & Prince Florian. Elephant Mario is a delightful amiibo, with the pachyderm plumber squeezing his portly torso into a pipe. As for the Poplin amiibo, the orangesicle-colored character holds a watering can while Prince Florian sits on his head. And in the Captain Toad amiibo, our hero is doing a victory pose in front of the Talking Flower.
