Nintendo has done DLC many times in the past; Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Brothers, With Amiibo, etc. What was so ok with them but not ok with this?

It's simple, you said it yourself. Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros. Those games are all about offering a multiplayer experience with as much content and variety as possible. They are competitive games that are endlessly replayable. It makes sense for those to have DLC for extra stuff.

But a game is game though. DLC is optional and it works in the same way whether the game has multi-player or not. It gives new content to make the game feel new even when playing a year after it's release just like with Smash Brothers and Mario Kart (which I actually play more of a single player experience of). DLC is DLC, and it's value is always in the eye of the beholder. Whether you like or not the sales prove people are willing spend more if it means they get more content to play of their favourite game.
