I'm on the fence personally. On one hand, cross-game dlc is kind of a big deal. On the other hand, there's only a few uses that are really noteworthy. To underline this unique proposition, they need to increase the amount of games that function with amiibo, but it also can't be too big of a deal. For example, i love that link got you gear in hyrule warriors AND a skin in mario kart AND fighter info for smash. Cross game dlc. They didn't keep it up though. There's no reason the new kirby amiibos shouldn't work with smash and mario kart. There's a delicate balance there though. Day one dlc is pretty lame. BUT, if new amiibos grant me post launch dlc for past titles; i think that balances the good with the bad.
I don't understand why the didn't make a skylanders game by this point. Simply use the smash roster and make a simple 3d adventure game. Seriously, copy skylanders. I'd probably not buy since i collect them for display (guilty pleasure), but good god kids would eat it up.
That's my 2 cents.
