Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Five reasons why Nintendo doing DLC is a good thing

6. DLC allows Nintendo to once again show the industry how to do it correctly - The reasons why people dislike DLC are due to bad practices by 3rd parties. Nintendo is once again leading the industry in high quality and high value solutions.

Gives me flashbacks of how you defended Mario Golf's day 1 DLC.

Here I try to help you and you troll me with alternative facts.

Fire Emblem DLC's and Amiibo locked content are almost death-inducing, so I doubt this point really has much substance. xD

There is actually plenty of good DLC made by 3rd parties, I agree with you in general though (although I'm not so sure that Nintendo will do it "right" either, to be honest). I prefer pure expansions instead, The Witcher 3 has the best expansion packs I've ever tried in my entire life and some cool free DLC as well.

I've yet to see any amiibo content that was wroth anything. Amiibo's are just collectables, imo.

Fire Emblem DLC is purely garbage or pay to win. The DLC for fire emblem adds nothing ot the game and there is zero incentive to purchase, unless you want to make the game boring by playing the gold/xp missions to makek your team OP.

Why do people get this worked up over DLC?

Buy it or don't.

3. DLC allows us to give Nintendo more money and keep them in business - If you are a regular visitor of video game forums, you've come to expect a monthly (or weekly) "Nintendo should go third party" thread which argues that Nintendo has run out of chances and is on the brink of exiting the hardware business. The common error these people make is that they severely underestimate how much we are willing to throw money at Nintendo. A Switch T-shirt for Link is a good deal.

This alone says everything that needs to be said about you as user on this site. This point is absolutely indefensible to any rational human being on this planet.

I see you must be new around here.

Nope. Every once in a while I just like pointing out the obvious.

Ño. 

I mean, If we are gonna be extremely subjective and base this only on our opinion of said company, then I guess Nintendo won this gen.

4. DLC is better than amiibo

Yeah, I mean... Yeah.
