Many of Nintendo’s amiibo are compatible with Super Mario Maker for the Nintendo Wii U. If the NFC figure is tapped to the GamePad, you’ll get a Mystery Mushroom costume to use in the game. It turns out The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD’s Wolf Link amiibo unlocks a new costume.
When a Wolf Link amiibo is scanned into Super Mario Maker now, a costume tied to it will appear as the 132nd costume in-game. As an unexpected quirk, the text for the costume is currently in Japanese. (It reads, “The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Wolf Link.) Pressing up while in the Wolf Link costume will trigger a pose where Midna points with her hair, and it has wolf barking sound effects. Dying or reaching the end of the level in the costume causes sound clips from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess to play.
Super Mario Maker is immediately available for the Nintendo Wii U. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD will be released on March 4, 2016.
