AmiiBomb is a Windows tool built with cheap components for creating and cloning NTAG215 based-figures
- 1x Windows PC
- 1x Arduino Uno R3 (around $4)
OR ESP32 DOIT DEVKIT V1 (any other ESP32 dev board should also work fine, but modify .INO file manually to match pins) - 1x Arduino IDE with ESP32 Arduino core installed (Only for ESP32)
- 1x 1x USB Cable Type AB (comes with Uno R3) (Uno R3)
OR USB to USB mini (very common) (ESP32) - 1x RFID Module RC522 (around $2)
- 7x Pin Wire Male-Female (around $1 for x20) (Uno R3)
OR 7x Pin Wire Female-Female (around $1 for x20) (ESP32) - 1x Soldering Iron Kit (and a little soldering skills)
- Many NTAG215 as you want NTAG215 based-figures (around $34 for x100)
You have to solder the header pins onto the RC522 Module
Connect the RC522 board to the Arduino or Arduino clone following one of these schematics
Connect the device to the PC by USB and that's all!

ESP32 only!!:
Configure the ESP32 device to work with the Arduino IDE by installing the ESP32 Arduino Core
(this link is the official ESP32 Arduino core repository):
https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32
Download the GIT repository/folder containing the esp32 version of Amiibombuino: "AmiiBombuino-esp32.ino" from:
https://github.com/peacepenguin/AmiiBomb-uino/tree/master/AmiiBombuino
Use the Arduino IDE:
set the board to "ESP32 Dev Module"
set the COM port
open and "upload" AmiiBombuino-esp32.ino
The ESP32 is now ready to use in Amiibomb on windows. Don't attempt to flash amiibombuino from within amiibomb to an ESP32 board.
Pre-compiled builds for flashing within amiibomb may be added eventually, for now though the ESP32 must have AmiiBombuino firmware flashed onto them using the Arduino IDE with the ESP32 core added.
You have to run AmiiBomb, Set a working folder (*.bin files), select the Keys, flash the AmiiBombuino Firmware to the Arduino, and you are ready to Read and Write NTAG215 based-figures.
- *.bin folder
It's the folder where you can put your NTAG215 based-figure dumps (previously dumped with AmiiBomb or found on internet, Google is your friend for that).
You can save the read NTAG215 based-figures here too, to write it back to another NTAG. You don't have to re-execute AmiiBomb, it's looking for folder changes automatically.
- Keys
You probably already have them if you know a little how NTAG215 based-figures cloning works. If not, a little helper is here in AmiiBomb.
Due to Copyright reason, we can't distribute them, but there is many place to found them. AmiiBomb send you to the right website, you just have to highlight the keys chars and copy them to your Clipboard, AmiiBomb check if the valid keys was inside, and ask you if you want to save them. If you have already them, you just have to select the keys file.
- AmiiBombuino Firmware
Just an Arduino program who communicate with AmiiBomb, You can flash it through avrdude by yourself or using the Internal Flasher in AmiiBomb or using XLoader.
amiibomuino can also be compiled and installed manually using the Arduino IDE. (see build instructions below, arduino section)

Clean the code.
It's work really fine with an NTAG215 but I don't know if it's work with an Amiibo ^^'!
AppData editor (for SSB Amiibo or any others who have interesting things inside).
Support PN532 NFC Module in AmiiBombuino.
Improve the docs.
