Corrin - number 59
Corrin amiibo – Super Smash Bros. Series
The name “Corrin” is used consistently across regions. In Japan, the character is known as Kamui, yet the amiibo packaging for international markets retains the name Corrin in line with the Super Smash Bros. branding. The figure was released in July 2017 in Europe and North America. In Japan, it appeared in June 2017.
Technically, the Corrin amiibo is both read and write compatible. In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate on Nintendo Switch, it can store fighter data. The figure learns from matches. Statistics, behavior patterns, and level progression are written onto the NFC chip. It is not limited to read-only bonuses.
The design reflects Corrin’s default appearance: silver hair, parted and layered, with a composed facial expression. The armor is detailed in black and silver tones, accented with subtle gold elements. Corrin holds the transformed Yato sword extended forward. The blade appears segmented and organic, referencing its partial dragon form. The stance is slightly angled, weight shifted to the back leg. The pose mirrors the neutral promotional artwork used for Corrin’s introduction in Super Smash Bros. It suggests readiness, not aggression. Controlled movement, paused mid-action.
Corrin originates from Fire Emblem Fates, released on Nintendo 3DS in 2015. Within that title, Corrin is the central protagonist, a royal born of Hoshido and raised in Nohr. The character embodies the central conflict between two kingdoms. This duality defines Corrin’s identity and is reflected in the ability to partially transform into a dragon. In the broader Fire Emblem series, Corrin represents a modern phase of the franchise, when character customization and branching storylines became more prominent.
In the Super Smash Bros. context, Corrin entered as downloadable content during the final phase of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U. The fighter carries over the sword-and-dragon hybrid mechanics from Fire Emblem Fates. The amiibo preserves that iteration. It does not depict an alternate costume. It is the standard fighter version as presented in Smash.
Compatibility extends across multiple systems. On Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, scanning the Corrin amiibo in Super Smash Bros. creates a Figure Player (FP). This FP can be trained, leveled up to 50, and customized with equipment in the Wii U version. On Nintendo Switch, in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the amiibo again generates a trainable FP. Spirits can be assigned to adjust attributes. The saved data remains on the figure itself.
In other compatible Nintendo Switch titles, the amiibo functions as a generic Super Smash Bros. character figure. In games such as Fire Emblem Warriors, scanning the Corrin amiibo grants randomized rewards like weapons or materials once per day. In Fire Emblem Engage, it unlocks music tracks from Fire Emblem Fates and access to themed cosmetic items within the Somniel hub area. The effects are modest. They supplement existing systems rather than replace progression.
The practical value of the Corrin amiibo lies in continuity. A trained fighter carries learned behavior from session to session. It becomes a fixed sparring partner. Data persists even when the console changes. There is a certain stability in that. The figure stands on a shelf, but it also stores hours of matches.
As part of the Super Smash Bros. Series line, the Corrin amiibo documents a specific moment in Nintendo’s crossover history. It captures a Fire Emblem protagonist at the point where the franchise’s reach widened globally. The added value is functional, structured, and repeatable. Not decorative alone. It is a figure that remembers.
