by Doc – Owner, Founder, We Have Reached Amiibo Tech 20XX
Back in my day if you wanted to emulate an amiibo, you had to buy an “N2 Elite”. The puck cost $80, the NFC reader cost another $70, and it was slow and unreliable. You kids don’t know how lucky you have it with this:

This sucker right here is called the Flashiibo, and it replaces everything. It replaces your N2 Elite. It replaces your Powersaves for Amiibo. It replaces your Amiibo Flask (unless you’re hosting an amiibo tournament and handling a few dozen bin files at a time). It replaces your NTAG215 chips. It replaces the amiibo cards you bought. It replaces everything.
And it does so for $20 on Amazon, which is hugely cheap compared to every other option I listed above. This product is so stellar that I replaced the NTAG215 Amazon link at the top of every page with the Flashiibo’s Amazon listing. If I haven’t made it clear already, I’ll do so: This is the last and cheapest amiibo tech you’ll ever need to buy.
Why’s It So Great?
- It effectively functions as a Powersaves for Amiibo that only needs to interact with the Flashiibo Companion app on your phone. That already speeds up the process of switching out amiibo files drastically. The only faster option would be the Amiibo Flask… if you can find and afford one.
- The Flashiibo is so inexpensive that it’s no big deal if you need another one. It’s roughly the cost of a single amiibo. Why wouldn’t you pick one up at that price?
- Hilariously, it functions as a keychain. That’s pretty funny.
- Internal batteries aren’t an issue. The battery itself will die, but that’s okay – because it just uses watch batteries. You can get them for cheap from any supermarket to replace it!

There’s several other features too. The most prominent is the button that’s hard to make out in the pictures – if you press it, the gizmo will scramble the serial ID on your amiibo file so you can scan the exact same amiibo again. The game will recognize it as a different amiibo, but with the exact same data that you just scanned. If you have an amiibo you need to scan twice, you can! That’s actually a really big deal for Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom players who use amiibo for speedruns and such.
To make a long story short, this thing rocks. I recommend referencing the User Manual before sinking your teeth into it so you know how to manuever the settings specific to what you need. Amiibo trainers will need to modify a setting or two before using it, but it’ll otherwise be smooth sailing.
