If it weren't for other companies doing the pre-order bonuses or store exclusive thing, I would really hate Amiibo. But I've learned that one can't get 100% of everything in a game anymore, so it don't but me as much.
But out of the possible cosmetic DLC's Amiibo do suck for a few reasons.
1. If you don't want a physical figurine you are stuck with one.
2. Most likely have to be attentive and jump on pre-ordering said Amiibo or stuck buying from some scalper for double the price.
3. Not easy to get as DLC. You have to go to possibly mutlpile stores, or multiple sclapers to get Amiibo. Normal DLC you can more easily waste your money all in one digital store very quickly.
4. Content is on your game. The very fact that I just put my Amiibo up to the nfc device and it generates my item instantly means that the game has the items code in it, but it's locked behind a dlc unlock code. Whether the game came with it already on or came in a update/patch, the dlc is on the game regardless of my wishes, yet I can only access it if I buy a figurine and scan it.
So yes, I think Amiibo are bullshit. But at least they are for the most part pointless bullshit. Takes BotW, while outfits are cool and all, all of the bonuses they offer can be acquired by other gear.
