Greater than one weekCame in great quality. Didnt have any odd bends or strange marks on it like most amiibo I see in stores. And is generally awesome as a product. Im glad I pre-ordered this since Ive seen it sold out everywhere I go look for amiibo. As for its use for the Wii U? Well, I can only say Ive tried it for Smash Bros Wii U, and as a learning AI its top-notch. Not only does it learn how to better battle against me after every victory and loss, not only does it learn tricks from AIs that I cant pull off on my own, but it also shows that its learning mid-battle. Ive seen my Fox amiibo, one that I named Analyst, literally stop in his tracks and stop himself from charging into the fray once again against opponents whove done nothing but pummel the poor guy non-stop... and hed readjust his tactics, try another method of attack, rather than get himself KOd again and again by the same tricks (which my best custom lvl 9 CPUs cant seem to do). Analyst has since far surpassed me in skills, and I cant seem to adapt fast enough to his strategies to defeat him. Interestingly enough, my other amiibo, a Samus amiibo I named Technician, can easily beat him time and time again. The interesting thing is, the two amiibo were trained completely opposite from one another. Analyst was trained mostly against human opponents and multiple teamed CPUs. Technician was solely trained by battling CPUs in one-on-one battles. I cant beat Analyst in a fair fight, but I *can* beat Technician in a fair fight. Analyst knows how to battle against human opponents, its what he was trained to do. If he didnt fight a human target, he fought against multiple foes at once in order to better confront an ever-changing strategy. Technician only knows how to battle against AI opponents, its what she was trained to do. She knew how to battle any form of custom AI I threw at her in any settings, learning how to block and dodge their near-perfect strikes and set up traps ahead of time that normal CPUs couldnt easily predict. But Analyst couldnt figure out how to battle a single-minded impossibly strong AI. And Technician couldnt figure out how to fight a multiple-minded human opponent. The way these amiibo grow and learn with time in Smash Bros is not only incredible, but extremely intriguing and pleasing. They really feel like /your/ amiibo, and no one elses. You watched them grow and think on their own, so you know why they fight the way they do, why they think the way they do. But if anyone else fought them, they wouldnt know what to expect. And in the same way, you wouldnt know anything about another players amiibos strategies or way of battling. It really is an astonishing aspect of these little figurines. Far more fascinating than one would originally give them credit for.

> 3 dayIts hard to review for an amiibo since its all dependant on how well its taught, but I got mine in good condition.
