==[[amiibo]] Compatibility==
==[[amiibo]] compatibility==
The Nintendo Switch, like the [[Wii U]] and [[Nintendo 3DS]] before it, is compatible with amiibo. To activate an amiibo figurine in a given game, the player must first be prompted by the game itself, then place the figurine base-down on top of the right-hand Joy-con control stick. This will have various effects, based on the amiibo used, and the game being played.
The Nintendo Switch, like the [[Wii U]] and [[Nintendo 3DS]] before it, is compatible with amiibo. To activate an amiibo figurine in a given game, the player must first be prompted by the game itself, then place the amiibo base-down onto the joystick of the Joy-Con (R). This will have various effects, based on the amiibo used, and the game being played.


An example would be the 'amiibo Rune' from ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild]]'', which causes various items to fall from the sky in front of Link when an amiibo is scanned in.
An example would be the bronze Kirby statue in ''[[Super Kirby Clash]]'', which gives [[Fragment]]s when an amiibo is scanned in.
