@rjejr Your amiibo argument is highly flawed. You aren't paying $13 for a skin; you are paying $13 for a Nintendo figurine, as well as any bonus content the figure may provide, which, in most cases, is more than just a MM skin anyways.
That aside, it would be a rather large task to make renders for all 120 amiibo skins in the NSMB style alone, not even thinking about doing the same for the other two. Doing so would take a lot of development time, especially when the game has already released and there is a smaller amount of people to work on the game.
@SuperWiiU Why not? It's harmless fun, and Nintendo gets a little cash out of it. Like someone else said before, you don't even have to get it, just don't play the challenge course.
@DBPirate They made DLC for Mario Golf, so I wouldn't be surprised.
Anyways, I'll definitely be getting this. I love Mario Tennis, so solid gameplay is all I care about. I don't need gimmick stages, I never used them anyways.
One of the reasons I dislike the comment sections of this website so much is because of how negative everyone is towards amiibo. The situation honestly isn't nearly as bad as you guys make it out to be, and I'm sick of hearing people complain about how much they dislike them. If you don't care about them, or flat-out hate them, fine, but don't try to spoil them for the people that actually do.

Re: Sakurai Talks About the Development Process Behind the Smash Bros. DLC Stages
@PtM Nintendo Everything has a history of stealing from SG without giving credit.

Oops, I accidentally selected MMLC, when I meant to put Pokemon Yellow...
Re: Super Mario Bros. Z Creator Launches New Patreon Page After Nintendo Takedown
the thing is, he is directly taking most of the sprites and sound effects FROM Nintendo games. Ninty is in the right here.
Re: Here's How Much Of Your Wii U's Internal Memory Pokkén Tournament Will Gobble Up
@Krisi Not at a competitive level. You can't walk into EVO and win with Dedede or Zelda, regardless of how much work you put in.
Re: Pokémon Splatfest Hitting Splatoon in February
Nintendo, come on guys... Please let us keep these Splatfest shirts.
Re: Site News: Welcome To The Brand New Nintendo Life!
I like it a lot! It looks stylish and professional.

Re: Fire Emblem Fates Removes 'Petting' Feature in Western Localisation

For the record, it doesn't particularly bother me, but I can't help but wonder why it was removed.

I don't particularly like her, tbh.
Re: Art: Here's Another Western Take On The Legend Of Zelda's Link
I like this one. The old one looked... Really bad, but this one looks really cool, imo.
Re: Rumour: A Class in Bravely Second is Supposedly Being Censored for the Western Release
@Dezzy This wasn't Niintendo, they had no control over the changes in this game... This is all Square.
That said, I have no problems with censorship, I don't get why people get so riled up about it.

All I need is Smash news. Anything else is a cherry on top.
Re: The Pokémon Company Sues Fan for Copyright Infringement, Demands $4,000 in Damages
@XenoRiki The Pokemon Company and Nintendo are not the same thing.
Re: Dry Bowser and Bowser Jr. will be in Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash
Comments are as toxic as always, no surprise there...
I find it hilarious how ever since Smash Bros had Bowser Jr. In the clown car, now all of the sudden it's mandatory that he is in one at all times.
Re: Preview: Hitting the Courts in Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash
Day One buy for me,Mario Tennis is the best Mario Sports spin-off barring Kart.
Re: Nintendo Download: 29th October (North America)
I'll by Octodad eventually.

@Aerona But Darth Maul was the one good thing to come out of the prequels!
Re: Video: Nintendo Shows Off a Few More Challengers in Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash
I love Mario Tennis
I love Waluigi
Will buy
Re: Nintendo Life Weekly: The Smash Bros. Fighter Ballot Ends, a Naughty Splatoon Octoling and More
K. Rool, Inkling, or Shovel Knight are my top choices.
Re: Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash Will Be Served Up in North America on 20th November
@AdanVC The last Mario Tennis had Online Multiplayer, I'm certain this one will, too.
Re: Nintendo UK Store Serves Up Incentives for Ordering Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash
@MasterBombad
I'm actually pretty hyped, myself. Mario Tennis has always been my favorite Mario sports title, so I'm excited to pick this up.
Re: Nintendo President Tatsumi Kimishima to Stick With Smart Device and IP Plans, Previously Predicted Wii U Troubles
I'm still a bit nervous, but he seems like a good guy, and a capable man for the job.
"Warm and friendly", huh...?
Okay then...
Re: Video: Shigeru Miyamoto and Takashi Tezuka Tackle Michel Ancel's PAC-Mario Stage in Super Mario Maker
@Jayvir Reggie may suck at SMASH BROS, but he can handle himself well enough with other Nintendo games.
Re: Toon Link Will Reportedly Be Playable in Hyrule Warriors Legends
But Medli?
Please give me Medli.
Re: Rumour: Fresh Sources Suggest Shovel Knight Is Indeed Digging His Way To Super Smash Bros.
On one hand, not K. Rool. Boo.
On the other, Shovel Knight.
I can work with this.
Re: Talking Point: The Argument For And Against amiibo-Cloning Tool Amiiqo
One of the reasons I dislike the comment sections of this website so much is because of how negative everyone is towards amiibo. The situation honestly isn't nearly as bad as you guys make it out to be, and I'm sick of hearing people complain about how much they dislike them.

Re: Poll: Is Pokkén Tournament The Wii U Release You've Been Waiting For?
I'll get it eventually, for sure, but I'm not that excited for it.
But yes, the game will sell. It has Pokemon. The end.
Re: The Piracy of amiibo Now Seems Possible With the 'amiiqo' Device
I rarely use amiibo for in-game content, barring Splatoon, so this doesn't hold any interest for me.
Re: Video: Super Mario Maker Contains Secret Fly Swatting Mini Game
Nintendo does love their semi-obscure references.
Can't wait to get this game.
Re: Nintendo Download: 20th August (North America)
Nothing for me this week, but I'm definitely getting Mario Maker when it launches.
I really want them to launch XC over here, but I kind of understand why they aren't going to.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo's Dismissal of Chris Prangar Highlights Issues With Company Culture
Hold on now.... Pranger broke his NDA. He did something he wasn't supposed to, and, heartbreaking as it is, he should be held accountable for it.
This is his fault, not Nintendo's.
Re: Xbox Boss Phil Spencer Acknowledges Nintendo as a 'Beacon' for First-Party Games
Wow, that's a cool thing to say, points to him. I'm never gonna buy an XBOX, but I can respect Mr. Spencer.
Re: Chris Prangar, Nintendo Treehouse Staffer Who Recently Spoke About His Work, Confirms He's Been Fired
That's sad and all (the FB post was heartbreaking), but at the end of the day, he broke the rules. That isn't Nintendo's fault, it's no one's bit his.
