Costumes? Seems a bit lame. Maybe there is a bit more, that they haven't let out yet,

Don't know. If you think you can get all the advantages with a single amiibo, i don't expect those advantages to be that big.

I mean, Mario Amiibo will work with what? 30+ games until the end of Wii U? I don't expect big advantages for every game. 

 

Of course, once in a while there will be a bigger thing in a game for the right Amiibo.

Yeah, Amiibo compatibility is currently an afterthought. Maybe they'll patch more interesting stuff later on.
They did say they are thinking of unique ways of using nfc.
