Oh, did I say that anywhere? Or are you just reading what you want again? All I'm saying is that it's laughable to completely disconnect Nintendo from this and treat them as innocent here (though I'm not surprised by the people trying to say that), Nintendo knew what content was going to be locked behind the Amiibo and they approved of it.

Again, think before posting.

Considering Nintendo has never locked co-op behind an amiibo it's pretty obvious this was Yacht Club's idea.

And Nintendo was of course entirely powerless and couldn't stop them from doing it, right?

A multi-billion dollar company has better things to do than dictate what a small indie dev should do. I'm sure there were some guidelines, but it's not like Nintendo had any sort of creative control.

Nintendo agreed to an amiibo, nothing less, nothing more. They're not even producing or distributing them, that should tell you enough. You want Nintendo to bark orders at indie devs to scare them away? So tell me, are Sony or MS responsible for every exclusive content/game on their consoles?

Besides, people clearly thought this game was worth the purchase before this amiibo was unveiled, so I don't even see the problem. This isn't something they deliberatly held back on when the game first launched.
