While the final Super Smash Bros. announcements have been made, including the final characters and Mii Fighter costumes, it doesn't look like the Amiibo train is slowing down. In fact, it's going to be months before the last of the DLC characters will get their own figures.

As revealed during the Smash Bros. Direct from earlier this afternoon, the Amiibo figures for Ryu and Roy, as well as an Amiibo for a Famicom-style R.O.B. will release on March 18. Series director Masahiro Sakurai also pointed out that figures for Cloud, Corrin, and Bayonetta are currently in the works, but no release window has been given.

But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
