@IceClimbers WHOA!! You had to buy a GBC to play a GBC game?! Man, reminds me of the time I wanted to play Mario Sunshine, but had to buy a whole Gamecube and $50 game just to unlock it.
@Aeureon You said "it feels unfair, to me, to shoehorn it in a Nintendo game that isn't made for Amiibo specifically." What I'm telling you, is that since the inception of amiibo, they have been added to Nintendo games. Not all of them. But a lot of them. I do not view any game as created for amiibo, except, as I and you now have said, ACAF. But they gave you 2 figures of the bat, at no extra cost. So I think thats a pretty fair deal for a game if you HAVE to have amiibo as a prerequisite to play the game.
@CalcNite Wow, that..uh, sure was...illuminating? But if I could draw your attention to one thing: You said " If they're gonna do it right.Do it right. And if they messed up." How, exactly? They set out to sell a toy that adds extra stuff to your game. They've done costumes, weapons, extra lives, and powerups. Those add to the game, I'm sure we can agree. So if we disregard this Dungeon level leak, which your response told me to do, how, with the existing amiibo, and the benefits within, did they mess up?
@Aeruon So you think Mario Tennis, Super Mario Maker, Splatoon, and Smash Bros,to name a few, were created for Amiibo?! No game(Well, maybe ACAF) was created for Amiibo. Nintendo created the amiibo to add a little something extra Its an add-on! It takes an existing game, and unlocks a few things you wouldn't get otherwise. MY problem is the opposite; I want them to do even more. My $40 Yoshi does the same thing as the $14 one. People woul've freaked if Nintendo locked, say, an entire new level behind that Mega Amiibo, but they'd be forgetting we paid $40 for that level! Amiibo should unlock rewards. I want Cloud, but I've leveled enough of SSBU for one lifetime.
Man, I am reading some hate speech on behalf of the Big N. Look, the fact of the matter is simple: Amiibo is Nintendos DLC. Like it or not, it is. Did you ever ONCE consider that you can buy the Wolf/Midna, try out/beat the dungeon, and then sell the amiibo? Its almost like free DLC!! But seriously, saying that amiibo dlc isn't available to everyone is just ignorant. You can decline a feature or 2 because you don't want a toy, but thats somehow Nintendos fault? Its Amiibo-exclusive content. Why should it be available digitally? Think of it as the CE of TP, and all the arguments become non-existant. And don't give me that "it's $45 without the amiibo" nonsense. THat's just Nintendo being nice. When is a digital version of a game ever different from it's physical counterpart? Oh. yeah...When the physical copy comes with exclusives. Could be a shirt. Could be a Pin, or a patch. This time, its a toy. A toy representing the franchise you all claim to love, and it just so happens to unlock some pretty cool stuff.

Re: Splatoon's Next Update Is On Target For Launch Tomorrow
It seems like alot of people on this site cited lack of Splatoon amiibo in stock as one of the reasons they hate the things. Well, here ya go!

@JaxonH You sir, get it. If there is any arguing past this point, people just wanna argue.

Re: Rumour: Twilight Princess HD to Feature Special amiibo Dungeon, Hero Mode and Touchscreen Inventory
@DreamOn Yes, a 2006 remake releasing in 2016 will have amiibo content. If you think it won't, well..read your name.
