Be fair.

At least you can use them in multiple games.

Still waiting on those Smash Bros. Amiibo booster cards. Other than Amiibo they seem to be doing okay. Hopefully the powers up dlc for Mario Maker will be a good value too.

Starting from the top, best to worst, in my opinion and based on my experiences.

Mario Kart 8 & Hyrule Warriors both had great value DLC, a mixture of free and reasonably priced. The season passes for both those games were excellent in terms of pricing. I don't expect Nintendo to make free DLC only (Splatoon) standard, so that's why these games go at the top. It's the approach I'd like Nintendo to take going forward.

Everything for Splatoon has been free, and that's not including the locked on-disc content. Since then Nintendo have actually added to the game for free, which is great. Given this week's update, it looks like Mario Maker will be getting free DLC, too. I haven't bought Mario Maker yet, but the promises of free updates, and particularly more content, mean it's a must-have sometime soon. Splatoon still gets played a few hours a month. I'd love to see some more single-player content, though, and to see some of the mechanics/level features from single player find their way into multiplayer.

Smash Brothers had a mixture of free and priced DLC. I'm not a fan of the costume DLC for Smash, and I think some of the paid content has been expensive, particularly when it comes to those who want to buy for both versions of the game. A sure sign Nintendo know their audience, though. The new IP gets free DLC, the broader appeal franchise (Kart) gets free/good value, and Smash gets the combination of free, more expensive and microtransaction DLC because it's for the most dedicated.

Fire Emblem: Awakening had a handful of free missions which allow you to recruit more characters, which was great, as well as a bunch of free smaller downloads (the challenge teams). The paid content was largely over-priced and many packs were hardly essential, though I thought the Future Past pack in particular was fantastic. I would happily have paid £10-15 for a mini-campaign based on the Future Past premise, and, at some point, Nintendo should have combined the DLC as a single, discounted pack. I think Awakening's paid DLC was a real foot-finding exercise for Nintendo this generation.

Over all a mixed bag from Nintendo, with obvious triumphs (Splatoon, Kart, Hyrule Warriors) and at least one game were their approach was very hamfisted (FE: Awakening). As of yet, I've not seen much amiibo content that stands as 'true' DLC, though I do agree any signs of that trend are concerning and would reflect badly on Nintendo.

Yeah, more locked content in more games.

It's decent O: Not too bad, but not cheap either. Kinda falls in the middle.

I bought all the dlc together for 15$, we are talking about 200 hours of content. I don´t know how much cheaper could be.

Those complaints become valid only when Nintendo locks meaningful content behind Amiibos. So, Hyrule Warriors for one amiibo, Splatoon in a way and Shovel Knight. Everything else is something that nobody would call relevant, like MK8's mii costumes.

Others would justify the Splatoon Amiibos by saying that there was enough free content to counteract it, blah blah blah, but that's not me. As soon as Nintendo locks a dungeon behind the Zelda U Amiibos or something, I'll get mad, but you're just complaining for the sake of it with the it just sounds like amiibo DLC we currently have. 

15? I thought it was 20... Actually, it is 20 for the NA. It does come with a lot, but 20 seems a but steep for me. O:

He complaining just for the sake of it? He never does that...

15 euros here, so like 18$ maybe, similar price. But the thing is, like you say, it comes with a whole ton of content, even Jim Sterling made a Jimquisition episode praising the Hyrule Warriors dlc, I agree that FE and Smash have overpriced dlc, but not Hyrule Warriors.
