the 3-1/2 hour main game is fine considering Star Fox games have always been about the multi branching path through planets- i.e. replayability.
however it is totally absurd to have the harder difficulty mode for the game locked behind buying an Amiibo. that's ridiculous and Nintendo should not get a pass on that, I mean difficulty modes are expected to be provided as a base. I have no idea what they were thinking. Also not enabling full compatibility with the pro controller makes zero sense, they have to be aware that a ton of their fans love the earlier games and are going to want as close to as they can get to the classic controller experience?
the difficulty mode blocked behind an Amiibo is literally a way to make fans hate the company, whoever made that call wasn't thinking
