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

I know u joking, but the only time I have no issue with DLC, is if you get a complete game and you don't need the DLC. DLC should be extras that you can go without.



 

 

Around the Network

Having to pay over 100$ for a complete experience (Game + DLC + all Amiibo DLC) is not a good thing. It is a pure rip-off. All the content should be part of the main game as it was in all the years before.

What do you need amibo's for?

They all do pointless things. Don't they just spawn like rupees or hearts or something?

The only one that does anything more than that is teh wolf link one, which spawn a wolf sidekick, but personally I find that annoying in a zelda game. Link doesn't have no wolf running around killing with him. What is he a stark?



I dont get it why its getting hate. Nintendo fans are spending soooo much money on Amiibos (I have like 8 amiibos!) that:
- Does not have a lot of content
- DOESNT EVEN OPEN UP THE BOX!

Nintendo knows that people will buy these dlcs.



Pocky Lover Boy!

^This.

I also don't get it, some say it should be in the main game which probably would mean to delay the game one more time and more budget.

How is putting hard mode in a game gonna delay a game by a significant amount?

I'm not against DLC, but if there was an option to include all this content in the main game without having to pay more for it, of course that would be a lot better :/

..but game prices are rising, not just because of inflation

Just look at the quote below, superchunk. You were wrong and you should know it. Meanwhile, all of my points still stand.

Except Amiibo isn't DLC in any concievable way. Its additional product that works with Nintendo hardware and software.

He didn't say Amiibo's were DLC.  He said they were locked content - and they are.  Same with Splatoon. 

I'm the biggest FE fan on this site and I can attest - Nintendo does DLC right in a lot of cases.  But both FE's DLC were atrocious.



"You should be banned. Youre clearly flaming the president and even his brother who you know nothing about. Dont be such a partisan hack"

When Nintendo does something, its ok with Rol. I mean they could have DRM, and explode, and those would just be extra features! Switch exploded in your pants, well that'll certainly the ladies (if your thing is still even there). 



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

You do realize that amiibo is very uneccesary. All it gives you is fish and items that you can already get yourself without it.

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.

I used to underestimate you guys.  Not anymore.
