September’s Nintendo Live expo will seemingly have an amiibo tournament

At last, we have a justification for all that plastic.

Nintendo have unveiled more details for the upcoming September 1-4 “Nintendo Live” expo in Seattle, Washington. The biggest highlight is that other than competitive events for Splatoon 3, Smash, and Mario Kart 8, we will have an amiibo tournament taking place as well.


Here’s the full schedule for all of the events that will be held at Nintendo Live.


Gaming tournaments:

  • Sept. 1: On the first day of Nintendo Live 2023, the Super Smash Bros. Squad Strike tournament will be open for fans ages 13+ who want to show off their versatile skills in the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate game.

  • Sept. 2: The Mario Kart 8 Deluxe 2023 Championships will be held on Sept. 2, with an on-site last-chance qualifier for those looking to race their way onto the big stage.

  • Sept. 3: On Sept. 3, the spotlight will be on the next generation of fighters with the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate amiibo+me Exhibition 2023. Attendees 10-16 years of age can train up their amiibo fighters and take on other entrants and their amiibo fighters to see who will win.

  • Sept. 4: Closing out the event is the Splatoon 3 2023 Championships, featuring the top qualifying teams from the upcoming Splatoon 3 Championship Qualifiers 2023 coming up June 3-4 and June 10-11.

 

Based on the brief description of the event, attendees “10-16 years of age” will train figures to fight in CPU matches. Fascinating, isn’t it? And given the fact that we have a rather sneaky addition of “Super Smash Bros. Ultimate amiibo+me Exhibition 2023″, there is no doubt this will be the most exciting expo yet.


So looking forward to it!
