Nintendo is treating Amiibo as On Disc DLC

No, I wouldn't say dlc is evil. It's a good way to extend the life of a game, though it's easily been turned into a bad thing these days... : /

You think you're getting an "extention" but what you're really getting is code that was written and removed for later profit. Wouldn't you rather said content be put in the game at launch and have it all day one, for $60.00? I know I would. Paying $120.00 for games is not something I consider a good idea. 

So, again... evil.

No, not all games are like that. There are some games where the content is post made. Sure, you could say they could keep delaying the game, but if they did that for Smash for example, we'd probably have to wait another year or more just to get everything... or Sakurai would finally give out from burnout! And there are times when companies just... give you more for free. So yeah, not all bad. xD
