I didn't download the update, and I don't play online.

overpriced by a big margin.

Deja vu

I remember when I went to the new 3DS midnight launch party and the guys behind me were talking about themes for it.

"fuck Nintendo for making us pay for themes, can't believe they are doing it!!"

5 second pause....

in a submissive voice "i'll buy them all anyway"

Do you mean buying amiibo for the extra content, or just in general? Some people just want the figurines themselves, and not just the extras they unlock ; )

I was considering getting the bundle, since I thought that'd be a good way to either save money, or get some extra content I was on the fence about for a few more dollars. Since I didn't really care about Lucas or the Mii costumes, that basically just left Roy, Ryu, and the two new stages, which ended up costing me $16 (with tax). The bundle I believe is $29 for both platforms, which is the one I would have gotten, so paying almost double for content I didn't care about didn't seem worth it.

But though the bundle pricing seemed too much for me personally, even buying individually wasn't quite so terrible. For that $16, I got two new characters, two new stages, and several corresponding trophies and songs for both versions of the game. If I only cared about the Wii U version, I would have been able to shave at least $3 off of that. There was also a free stage waiting to be downloaded, which was nice bonus I wasn't really expecting.

So really, for me, I guess the pricing was neither good nor bad. There are far worse examples of DLC pricing, as well as far better ones (many being in Nintendo's own library). I can see why collectors would have a valid reason to complain, but for me, I suppose it's basically just passable. I still hope this doesn't become a trend, though.

Well, Sony has their own themes for sale, so Ninten charging for them isn`t something only they are doing. ; )

Though I feel this way for this dlc. I really want the characters, so I gave in. The rest, I can pass for now. Even if they announce a deal later, I won`t mind. I wouldn`t want to wait for that if it`s a long time from now....

What`s wrong with the amiibo? They`re cool figurines and not too pricy. The main issue is just stock.

i just want the new fighters... time to shell out $16

 Nintendo's DLC has always been a bit on the pricey. They still charge $10 for N64 titles, that are almost 20 years old, on VC. They've been doing that since the Wii, some of the same games like Mario 64 and MK64. It's why I don't really understand how people constantly praise Nintendo's DLC handling. 

These things cost for developing, not for distributing. The DLC is much more expensive than the original content compared to how much you get, but it will also sell a lot less. It's expensive but understandable. I voted no because we're also getting a free stage and tourney mode, which makes the DLC in general average priced, IMO.
