 The **N2 Elite** is an [[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~ The **N2 Elite** is an [[nfc]] writer specifically tailored for reading, writing, and storing [[Amiibo]] data.

 +The official N2E app doesn't work so well, 'cause it relies on connecting to the companies servers to get info about Amiibo, and those no longer exist. But you can also use the [[Android]] app [[TagMo]] to write to N2Es now. Works better than running the official Linux desktop software too.

 The official software is runnable using mono. I also have to run it as the root 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! The official software is runnable using mono.
