During last night's financial meeting, Nintendo president and CEO Satoru Iwata announced a new feature for amiibo that retro gamers will no doubt enjoy.

Tapping the plastic figurines on the Wii U GamePad will unlock time-limited trials of original Nintendo and Super Nintendo Virtual Console games. Doing so in quick succession will allow players to cycle through various scenes of particular games. Iwata likened this maneuver to swapping out cartridges.
