I’d say Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival absolutely killed Nintendo’s reputation for a couple years. Up until then, they were seen as a great developer who were just going through a rough period. After that game, though, they seemed more like irrelevant has-beens who were starting to milk whatever fans were still left. This game killed any illusion that the Wii U could be saved, and exposed Amiibo for being the cash grab that they were. Even now, I’m still VERY cautious with them.

I wouldn't go that far. There was some disappointment at the announcement of AC: Amiibo festival, but around the time it actually came out, Nintendo had Splatoon and Super Mario Maker going for it, which were pretty huge considering the size of the console base they were on. I'm not an AC fan so I didn't personally care as long as the other stuff came out. The Wii U as a whole was a big stumble for Nintendo, despite having some good games on it. :(

I'd honestly forgotten about Amiibo Festival, LOL.
