Amiibo came out just over a year ago, I think Nintendo probably would have wanted to wait and see if they're successful before basing a decent budget game on it.
As others have said it is probably in the works as we speak. Beyond that Nintendo wouldn't just copy Skylanders, they would spend a fair bit of time testing out what would work best for their IPs and designing a quality game experience around that.
