Nintendo will launch its amiibo figures this year, with the first twelve characters revealed.
The full list of characters included in the first wave are: Mario, Peach, Yoshi, Donkey Kong, Fox, Link, Samus, female Wii Fit Trainer, Villager, Kirby, Pikachu and Marth.
Whilst Pit and Bowser have been shown in the past, they will no doubt be part of the second batch of amiibo figures.
In North America, each character will retail for $12.99, with the first compatible amiibo game being Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, Yoshi's Woolly World, Mario Kart 8 and Mario Party 10 will also utilise the figures, and the New Nintendo 3DS system has a feature to recognise them, too.
