True, but in the end people have to understand you can't just make a game like that willy-nilly. It probably doesn't make much sense to Nintendo to invest heavily in an amiibo game when it's all uncharted territory for them. 

Skylanders was a proven concept long before Amiibo. They should have launched Amiibo with a game like that. And shooters were uncharted territory for Nintendo too, but that didn't stop them hitting the ball out of the park with Splatoon.
