Amiibo is the worst thing to happen this generation

Except that content would not be in the game if wasnt for amiibo, dam Curl I expect more from you.

Now they need to think in some extra fanservice stuff for every game to justify the amiibo, just as they release games to justify their console, so they include this little stuff on them. The retro arwing was an idea of the young staff when they were thinking what could they implement for the amiibo, and they come up with that, even if Miyamoto didnt like it so much. So this exists because of amiibo, but someway you would preffer if this didnt existed as long as amiibo has nothing to do with it, wich honestly sounds kind of dumb.. are you going to get up on this hate bandwagon with absolutely zero rational thinking as everyone else?

I'm going to be asked to spend $80 on a game that will lock me out of some of the content on the disc unless I buy an additional plastic figurine. That's anti-consumer behaviour on their part, and I will call out any company that does it, even Nintendo. 

Others keep saying "well you get a plastic figurine out of it", but if that's the case, they should be happy with just the figurine, rather than demanding in-game bonuses that the rest of us are locked out of despite having purchased the game at full price.

There is no excuse, ever, for a full price game not to offer buyers the entirety of the content on the disc they paid for. For years, we railed against companies like Capcom, Ubisoft, or Konami pulling this kind of shit. I am not going to turn a blind eye now just because a company I grew up loving has jumped on the bandwagon.

Good spech and all Curl but it doesnt matter, you are losing the point:

If wast because amiibo you wouldnt have that content to begging with, so... your complain is already pointless.

And if that content didnt exist, you would be happier, but if exists as an amiibo bonus, suddlenly the game is incomplete. Why? why cant we think a bit?

And dont fall on the usual price demagogy please, you say yo need 80$ to have the full game.... where the 99.9999% of the game is already included in the standalone game, the rest is just little fanservice, you cannot compare that to what those other companies you mention have done, taking big chunks of a game till the point where it feels lacking and releasing later that as pay dlc, you are complaining about a completely insignificant amount of content that would not be there anyways if they didnt need to think something to add.

I´m sorry, but find this really dumb, and I really dont know why is so hard to understand for so many people.
