"On 8th May 2014, Mr Iwata announced the decision for Nintendo to release character figurines with built-in NFC functionality that are compatible with video games starting from this year-end sales season.

There has, however, not been any specific announcements regarding which software titles for Nintendo platforms will use this functionality.

We have no other announcements to make at this time."

In einem Gespräch zwischen Stephan Bole (Manager Nintendo France) und einer französischen Seite gab er bekannt, dass Super Smash Bros. (Wii U) durch NFC-Figuren unterstützt werden soll.

"E3 is also an opportunity to show the use of NFC technology in Nintendo consoles. The NFC will be used in the Wii U version of Super Smash Bros."

Wir können also gespannt sein, was uns auf der E3 alles erwartet.
