simple to get over this amiibo - if you don't like DLC/micro transactions and figurine toys, don't buy it. it is DLC on a toy and that is how Nintendo wanted to market it. a design done by Nintendo and the cretors of Skylanders, and others.

while other publishers have its own way of DLC, it is basically similar.

the plus is you'll have a toy, if you don't like it then just don't buy it.

don't support DLC/micro transactions as well.

The problem there is that without it something that was once in-game will not be in the game.
It grows further than just ignoring the DLC if it's extra stuff you don't want, when it's a part of the game tied to it, in this case an ability which was already in the Kirby series just like any other, which now is tied to a toy.

There is no easy path around this one, if you don't want it and just avoid it, you are accepting losing part of your game for not paying more; if you buy it you are supporting the idea of tying content of the game to an extra cost for the company; and if you ultimately just want the feature and would pay a DLC price for it, you still can't, you have to pay for the whole toy anyway to get that ability, if that's the only thing you want as a gamer, not a figurine collector.

Do you understand it? It's a horrible practice for a gamer only and not also a figurine collector, and it's potentally scalating.

So wait, is Kirby not able to take anythings power without an amiibo? Or is it just character specific powers?
