Well to be fair, we don't really know what else they have planned for Amiibo in the future, Smash Bros seems to have been a test run as a game  to make decent use of them with games like MK8/HW just having some thrown in last minute functionality for extra measure.

I think we certainly could see an Amiibo game that actually requires them like Skylanders, it would be fun to play an action/platformer with dozens of playable Nintendo characters. If Nintendo is really releasing new hardware in 2016, perhaps this could be the big launch game and if it's free to play then they could just have it predownloaded onto the device, bundle a single Amiibo (most likely Mario) figure and u need to buy others in order to unlock new characters.

I don't consider the amiibo content in Smash any more significant than what appears in other amiibo games. 2016 is far too late. Amiibo will be two years old by the time the new hardware would launch. They need to be justufying it now.

No, Amiibo support in Smash is clearly much better than the other games thus far. An advanced AI that helps train u is much more than character skins for Miis in MK8 and a single excluisve weapon in HW.

We don't know what Kirby, Yoshi, Captain Toad, Mario Party have in store for Amiibo. It's possible that with each release, the Amiibo support becomes more and more worthwhile.
