but I want this and I already have all Mario series amiibo from classic and smash sealed plus one copy opened of each I cannot buy the same amiibo for a 4th time can I?

Meh, not interested.

Give me a Shulk robot and then we'll talk.

It's amazing how people rush to judgement with so few details on things. I'm pretty sure the upcoming Zelda didn't get delayed to move resources to this, or that the developer isn't Retro.

People complained about Wind Waker HD and the 3DS remakes delaying Zelda U, even though the devs doing the remakes have nothing to do with that game.

The irrelevant game that amiibo deserves.

Seems harmless to me.

Those remakes weren't done of thin air. It needed Aonuma to be looking at those. As the person in charge of the franchise he has to supervise. Or do you really believe they just make the games and get released? No. He has to look at it. That's what some of us complain, as all that time invested in those remakes and spin offs can affect the developement, like Minish Cap to Twilight Princess back in 2005.

The game is not free, it will be given away for free for those who buy Amiibos now, presumably it's a limited deal. However, this game will likely be on eShop for cheap. I don't see why people want a Skylanders kind of game with amiibo, those games are a scam.

Yes because a remake, which is keeping the same looking world (just better visuals) and the same story and the same characters (just more detailed) really is going to require anyone from the original. Aonuma led that, probably, like producers are involved in movies (a fancy name attached to it to make it sell better). It's not like you need an incredibly bright guy to lead a team of developers to take a previous game and make it look shinier, but keep everything else the same (or 97% of it).

Lol, hopefully they will have a true Nintendo Amiibo Land game for the next system then
