why do they call it season pass? Does it mean it will expire?

Good news, what DLC is coming with the season pass is listed in the OP. We even got images

I never understood the hate for DLC honestly. If you don't like it, don't buy it. Nobody is forcing you.

Do developers like to take advantage of it? Yes. Be smart enough to know when this is the case.

I think DLC saves the middle games. Now we don't only have AAA or indie games.

Hope they do some DLC for Mario 3D World, like a bunch of hard levels like Champion road would be amazing :P

May 2?! I can't wait! I've been waiting for another mario golf, loved the n64 and GameCube games. I'm very excited to know it's coming in a couple of weeks. I had no idea it was right around the corner.

Considering the first DLC is available day one that might not be true. 

Preorder cancelled. This was going to be the first Nintendo game I had bought in over a year.

It's completely unacceptable.

If only they'd had a season pass for the Fire Emblem Awakening DLC, I could have saved so much money...

I may have eaten up a Fire Emblem season pass.
You don't need to all stick by your "No DLC" guns to keep looking like men. Realize this is a business companies want to make money in, and often the game that releases on launch day is no longer the complete end product/service.

If you would have bought Mario Golf for $40, you would have received 126 holes, and you would have been happy with that. Now offering you almost a whole other extra game, 108 holes, for $15 is an unacceptable thing? You can even try the DLC before buying it.

That's a lot of content in both the main game and in the DLC, is all I'm saying. Nintendo has decided that it's cheap to design holes, or that they had a whole bunch extra left over already, and this is the best way to capitalize on that large level of extra content.
