Amiibo is the worst thing to happen this generation

So we should be happy that we're given the privilege to pay extra to unlock stuff that is already on the disc we paid good money for?

Sorry mate, that's just not good enough in my book. 

It doesnt matter wether is on the disc or is not, dont be so dogmatic, it may be on the disc, but the reason it was created was the amiibo, the reason they put that little extra effort is because they have a product that costs money and they need to give it value, and there is no other way to do that, would you feel more confartable if that content was not technically on disc? is a psycologic thing or something? There is no other way to add that content, it has to be already there.

What you want is Nintendo doing the extra fanservice that they are doing exclusively because they want to add value to amiibo, and then once is done... suddlenly they give it for free.... then whats the whole point then? 

The point is that when I purchase something, trying to then sell a part of what I have already paid for to me for an additional cost is scumbag behaviour in my book.

How about this; what if the Amiibo still unlocks the retro Arwing, but those without the Amiibo can also unlock it by beating the game? That way those of us who don't want to buy toys could still gain access it, while the Amiibo guys could feel special by having it right off the bat.
