the whole amiibo thing is awfull.

its not like you got some(!!!!) amiibos or like 1 amiibo and you can get a little special funny thing in every game.

they just release for each new game own damn amiibos and make each game a own skylander crap. thats ridicoulus. and bad.

i dont got any of this shit and will never get.

Its just a 15 dollar dlc for every game with almost no content. 


next thing you know you will act as if you don't 'get' why people buy toys, action figures, dolls, statues- things that have no practical use. people aren't buying Amiibos for the games, they are simply buying them to collect or display. its that simple really

And Nintendo is not selling as figurines, they are selling as DLC disguised as figurines.

Lol, good luck with that comment. SSB4 a rushed game XD

People willcomplain about anything i see.


As I mentioned, I don't need luck, well, I may need in case they decide to ruin another franchise with DLC/amiibo.

Hopefully Zelda is intact of this practice or it will become another DLC fest like Super Smash Bros.


Oh no!!! DLC fest in SSB now!!!! XD

See it as a nice extra, just like this game is a nice extra for the ones that buy the amiibo's.

People want this stuff anyway, and now you get a free boardgame.

Personally, I hate the whole amiibo thing, so I'm not buying a single one.


I can only see it as wasted time and resources.

I'm only gonna focus on the Smash amiibo.

I could care less about the AC amiibo, or any other amiibo, really.


I can't wait until next gen every character in Smash is locked behind an amiibo.

Yeah sure, they currently have a perfect solution for Smash and Amiibo, a transportable figure that can uplevel and is saved on the Amiibo. Let's throw that away for an inferior idea. Not that Nintendo doesn't do stupid stuff, but why should they do that?

Of course not, but are you expecting that they give you the game because your pretty face or what?

It´s a stupid game that I´m still hating because I wanted a real AC. But of course the are not going to give this to you just because.

You need obnly 2 cards to play it, so you can play this game for 4 freaking dollars, there is no complain in there at all. And many people was going to buy the AC amiibos anyway because they are really well done and some people will buy them for Happy Home desginers

So there is no need to extend your hate for amiibo or for the terrible conference to this one, because they are not doing anything bad here.


Arent't they doing this game with amiibo/card/DLC in mind? Oh, you enlighten me.

... OF COURSE IT IS, that is why the game is free.

But are you able to play this game for 4$ instead of 40? Yes or not?

And your point was that you need to buy the game and then buy the amiibo to play the game. WRONG. You only buy the amiibos to play it, and you only need 2 of them, so a game that you were thinking that was a 40$ game is now a game that you can play for 4 freaking dollars, but you still complain then...

It will be better as a 40$ retail game??

I think this game shouldn´t exist at all, and should be a real AC, but since the game is already donde, I think this is the best way to go.

I now, it's sad. Hopefully next year when they launch NX they decide to do a good Super Smash Bros game with all the content in its launch.

This a fake thread

AC is free, you don´t even need amiibo to play, you can play with the cards.


Are those cards free?

Would the game be free without Amiibo?

Your porcentage doesn't matter. What Nintendo is selling is DLC and the message they get is people are willing to buy DLC. If they wanted to sell figurines they would be selling you amiibo without any functionality.
