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

If that content didnt exist, you would be happier, but if exists as an amiibo bonus, suddlenly the game is incomplete.

And dont fall on that demgagy please, you need 80$ to have the full game.... where the 99.9999% of the game is already included in the game alone, the rest is just little fanservice, you cannot compare that to what other companies do, taking big chunks of a game and releasing later as 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.

That "fanservice" is very significant to me as a Starfox fan, and it's on the disc I'll be buying, yet they lock me out of it unless I buy a separate plastic toy. I will never support on-disc DLC, I don't care if it's minor. For years I praised Nintendo for not giving in to these horrid practices while other companies did. I'm not going to give them a free pass now just because I love their games or just because some other companies are even worse.

As for "it wouldn't exist if not for Amiibo", we can't know that, a lot of it may very well have. And either way, it is still content that is on the disc we paid for, but which we are denied access to.

I find Amiibo repugnant, personally. On disc DLC is one of the worst things to happen to gaming in the past decade in my opinion, and the fact that it's now spreading like cancer through pretty much every major Nintendo game is something I will never be okay with.

YES, we know it. Miyamoto himself said it, they were thinking about something cool to add to the amiibo and the young staff came with the idea of the retro arwing, and Miyamoto didnt liked it specially but he ended up giving them green light. And at first the bombs were going to be part of the retro arwing alone, but they though fans wouldnt like that so at the end this made the bombs get into the the main game. 

This would have not existed without amiibo, but then you would be happier, how ironic and dumb is that?
At least now you have a chance to have it, and if you happened to have a star fox amiibo, now the toy has more value and it gives you a nice little dumb thing.

Terrible, the worst thing ever.
