Since the announcement of Amiibo, I kept waiting for Nintendo to unveil a game that was essentially Skylanders but with Nintendo characters. Not that I myself would give two hoots about it, but given the success of Skylanders, it seemed like a no brainer to follow in its footsteps.
Instead, the only games so far that are built around Amiibo appear to have extremely minimal gameplay. Why not do a full fledged game instead? It worked not only for Skylanders, but for Disney Infinity and Lego Dimensions as well.
Am I missing some obvious reason why this would be a bad idea, (commerically of course, I know some of us would simply dislike it on principal) or is this just another case of Nintendo missing the obvious?
