Pretty shady of them to keep this news under embargo, but according to Nintendo Life, the arcade mode and the black arwing mode is in fact unlockable in game and the amiibo acts as an early unlock key! Which is how all amiibo should work on non-amiibo centric game!

This is phenomenal news. Looks like we're winning the war against Amiibo after all!
Man, I hope this becomes standard.
Phew, thank fuck.
Will be playing the hell out of these when I unlock them without buying Amiibo.
Great news and it's how I hope Nintendo uses Amiibo in the future -- as a shortcut for extra content.
Good, good. Hopefully this becomes the standard from now on with most games. 
Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won
They've done this before. It's nothing new, but good to know.
Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

| Bandorr said: In that case - good move. I'm all for Amiibos being a "shortcut" to content. As long as it doesn't actually lock the content. So they kept this secret to sell Amiibo's then? |
Unless we get a future update need to unlock the amiibo content, this may be true. Nevertheless, its reassuring that we dont need to buy amiibo.
