Amiibo Tap: Nintendo's Greatest Bits[a] (stylized as amiibo Tap: Nintendo's Greatest Bits), known as Amiibo Touch & Play: Nintendo Classics Highlights in the PAL regions, is an application developed and published by Nintendo for the Wii U's Nintendo eShop in 2015. The application is used to play demos of 30 popular Nintendo Entertainment System and Super Nintendo Entertainment System video games by scanning, Amiibo figurines, Nintendo's toys-to-life series of products.
The player can play demos of the games under a three minute timer, and starts in various parts of each game. Each Amiibo scan unlocks one title randomly from the collection. The application was teased by Nintendo president Satoru Iwata in February 2015, who later announced the application via Nintendo Direct the following month. It was released in April 2015 in Japan and worldwide. Amiibo Tap: Nintendo's Greatest Bits received negative reception, and was criticized for its pricing and structure, especially amidst a supply shortage of Amiibo products. It was made unavailable for download upon the Wii U's eShop closure on March 27, 2023.
