I have been on a positive post streak lately. That has ended with the complete lack of hardware updates (which has me in an angry depression) and this Nintendo news that I read about the new 3DS Metroid. I even gave Nintendo the winning E3 score this year, largely because of announcing not one, but 2 new Metroid games. After reading an article about 3DS Metroid though, I'm insulted and pissed.
In order to access all of the game that you buy, you must buy 4 amiibo toys! Now, some of the unlockable amiibo stuff is OK, like unlocking artwork and a music player. I think you should be able to earn those, but not too upsetting. Now the shocking, absurd, and greedy cash grab that makes even Capcom, EA, and Activision look like non profit organizations! In order to play the hardest game mode (Fusion Mode) you must buy an amiibo to unlock it! What?!
You can't even just pay for DLC (which is absurd to have to do in itself). You must buy a kids toy to unlock the game's best mode! Now what is a grown man going to do with this toy? Am I supposed to run around with it and say "pow" "pow"? No, I'd just throw it in the trash. What a waste! As a long time Metroid fan going back to the 90s, I was very excited about Metroid: Samus Returns, but now I just feel insulted.
Nintendo needs to realize that their fans are not all kids that want to play with their toys. I know some older players may want to collect them and put them on a shelf, but I have no interest in toys. Even most of you Nintendo faithful couldn't defend this, could you?
