Four amiibo unlock extra content in Metroid: Samus Returns, and Nintendo has now confirmed this content can only be accessed by using the NFC figures.
The new squishy Metroid amiibo not only lets you reveal the location of nearby Metroid on your map, it will also unlock a new "Fusion" difficulty mode where Samus has her suit from Metroid Fusion when you beat the game.
Speaking to Eurogamer, a Nintendo rep confirmed you'll need the figure to access this bonus mode, saying, "this unlockable content is only unlocked using amiibo."
In addition to the squishy Metroid amiibo, a new Samus Aran amiibo will launch alongside the game on September 15. This figure unlocks an extra energy tank, as well as a Metroid II art gallery when you finish the game.
The Zero Suit Samus and classic Samus amiibo that are part of the Super Smash Bros. amiibo line also have special functionality. The former unlocks a bonus energy tank, as well as a Sound Test mode when you beat the game, and the latter unlocks a missile tank, as we'll as concept art when you finish the game.
