-The **N2 Elite** is an [[form:NFC]] writer specifically tailored for reading, writing, and storing [[Amiibo]] data. You can either use a phone with NFC writing capabilities, or buy a bundle with writer included, and use that to put data onto the coin-like doodad you use in place of the Amiibo. It can store 200 Amiibo worth of data, and you cycle through them with a button. I assume a person doesn't want to click through all their stored Amiibo one-by-one, so probably best to only store a few on there you need~

+NB: You can't use this writer to write regular NFC tags.
 If your phone does write NFC you'd be better off just using that with an app and writing to the really cheap NFC stickers you can buy online.

 Support for the writer has been in the kernel for a while. Plug it in and ''lsmod'' and you should see a ''cp210x'' in the list. If you ''lsusb'' it  is identified as ''Silicon Labs CP210x UART Bridge''.
-The official software is runnable using mono. I also have to run it as th eroot user, but you can probably fix this if you want((Add your user to the 'uucp' group in Arch Linux)). So I use ''sudo mono N2EliteManager.exe'' and things run fine!

+I've had issues with it not being recognised if it's not attached when I boot.
