Review: SSHEMO NFC Amiibo Tags for Zelda (24 pcs)

October 9, 2021 Posted by Bill Loguidice Review No Comments

These SSHEMO NFC Amiibo Tags provide Amiibo-like functionality without having to collect all of the figures. Although Amiibos aren’t much of a thing these days, they’re still the only way to unlock certain features in games. Although these 24 cards are specifically designed for use with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild on the Nintendo Switch, they should also work on other Nintendo NFC-capable systems and games like The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening and Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity.

For my testing, I tried it the Switch version of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. First, I registered the card using the Register Owner and Nickname under the amiibo option in System Settings. I then activated the NFC option in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Simple.

Not a fan of analog stick covers, but nice that it's there.

You get two bonus analog stick covers in the package. I’m not a fan of these, so won’t be using them, but they’re still a nice free gift. The 24 cards come in a tiny plastic case. They’re quite convenient to carry around and store, although the stats side of the card has very tiny details, so it’s all but impossible to make out the text.

The cards are very tiny, which is a plus and a minus.

Overall, this is a nice value. It saves you the trouble of tracking down all of those expensive – and very difficult to find these days – physical Amiibos. If this is something you can find useful, it definitely works.

Make sure you activate the Amiibo option in-game.
