Nintendo has shared more information about what the Chibi-Robo! amiibo unlocks in Nintendo 3DS exclusive Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash.
We knew that scanning the ammibo would empower the tiny robot to become Super Chibi-Robo, but will be the only way that you can access the Chibi-Capsule vending machine in Chibi-House. Players can then use the machine to unlock collectable in-game figurines and bonus stages.
Recording in-game score data will allow you to level up the Chibi-Robo amiibo, increasing the number of times that Super Chibi-Robo can be used per day while improving the likelihood that the Chibi-Capsule vending machine will reward you with rarer items.
Meanwhile, other amiibo figures may be used once per day to earn spendable in-game coins.
Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash releases exclusively for Nintendo 3DS in North America on October 9th, and in Europe on November 6th.
