I think there has to be a hub game coming regardless. That way Nintendo won't be so limited, and like the kid who wants to buy say a Tom Nook Amiibo because he/she thinks it looks neat but doesn't have Animal Crossing for the 3DS ... well they should be able to get some use of their figure too. 

I dunno if it has to be a game that plays just like Skylanders, I guess it could be something more like Nintendo Land 2 with mini-games, but if you scan in your Amiibo, you can control that character through the mini-games. 

My guess is it will be Nintendo Land 2, only this iteration will play like a combination of the first one and Disney Infinity...

In Nintendo Land you had the opportunity to unlock things from the mini games with which to decorate your park, but it didn't allow for much creativity...

This time you'll have more control...

Yeah maybe. Though I get the feeling the first Nintendo Land wasn't as big of a hit as Nintendo wanted. 

So maybe they'll just call it Nintendo Universe or Nintendo World or something and give it different play mechanics. 

To be honest an Skylanders style game using Nintendo characters and levels would probably quickly become one of their biggest IP, right up there with Mario Kart and Smash Bros. and the Mario platformers. I know Nintendo likes to be unique and all, but this is a scenario where copying wouldn't be the worst thing in the world.
