There's nothing wrong with it, but it comes off as anti-consumer, especially since Odyssey came out in the same year with the same way of unlocking costumes, but as an optional feature so you could get the costumes earlier in the game if you wanted them that badly.

It also feels wrong because it's like locking the default Mario costume to a toy. I know that in BotW's case they intentionally wanted to make Link blue, but it still felt wrong to me. At least since it's amiibo I still got a nice OoT Link figure in my shelf along with the costume, otherwise (If it was straight-up DLC) I wouldn't have bought it.

Since when is 'expecting you to pay for bonus content' anti-consumer? 

Why are gamers so entitled? Why is it that gamers expect that everything on top of the base game is free or that they're entitled to get all the bonus content without paying? You don't go to a steakhouse and demand that your fries gets upsold to a poutine at no extra charge, do you? You don't go to a movie theater and expect a free drink just because you bought popcorn and a movie ticket, do you? 

Paying some money for some content doesn't entitle you to all the content for the same price. If a developer does give you free shit (nintendo with splatoon, CD Projekt Red with The Witcher 3), that should be something you appreciate as a nice bonus, not the default. 

If you want the bonuses that are amiibo exclusive, pay for the damn amiibo. 

Are you this obnoxious in every thread?
