The weirdest thing about this is certainly the amiibo bit. So now, in order to finish your amiibo collection...you need a cereal box. I don't get it to be honest

I emailed my mom, who's in the USA right now, to look for this in stores and bring 2 of them to me, back in Canada, for Christmas. I'm 33 years old...

Super Mario Cereal from Kellogg's makes breakfast a playful experience

With Super Mario™ Cereal, Nintendo and Kellogg's® have teamed up to take fans on a breakfast odyssey that will continue long after the cereal box is empty. In addition to collectible Super Mario Odyssey™ box art, each Super Mario Cereal box functions as an amiibo™ accessory, making breakfast a more playful experience.

“This powered-up partnership with Kellogg's is another exciting way for us to expand the Nintendo brand in unique and creative ways,” said Tom Prata, Nintendo of America's Senior Vice President of Strategic Initiatives. “We are always looking for new opportunities to bring smiles to people of all ages, and this is a fun way to kick off the day.”

The limited-edition cereal box will begin hitting store shelves across the U.S. as early as Dec. 11. Those playing the Super Mario Odyssey game can tap the cereal box on the Nintendo Switchâ„¢ system, like you would an amiibo, to receive gold coins or a heart in the game. Even the cereal itself has a Super Mario twist, with colorful power-up marshmallows and a blast of mixed berry flavor in every box.

“We are thrilled to pack so much fun into one box of cereal,” said Brad Schwan, Senior Director of Morning Foods Marketing. “The package adds value and excitement for fans, with marshmallow shapes in the cereal inspired by Super Mario power-ups to tie the theme together.”

Cereal is worthwhile. You need food to live

Amiibo-locked content is never worthwhile.

I don't mind it to be honest. It seems financially motivated, sure. But it's also just cool. If I was 10, I'd *love* this.
