Nintendo is smart. We all know any real 'hardcore' fans would've bought the Falco amiibo already.

Seriously?

lol no, I'm being sarcastic xD 

I wouldn't be surprised if Hardcore Mode is locked to only using that particular amiibo.  It's not the first time Nintendo locked out modes in a game that requires amiibos (ie. Mario Party 10).  Nintendo is actually stupid.
