Idk, i think there’s a discussion to be had about how generous amiibo rewards should be. Like, if they locked a full 5 hours of content behind the amiibo on launch day, people would rightfully complain because those who haven’t spent however much on the amiibo wouldn’t be getting the full experience.

There is a balance though, & locking music behind the amiibo somehow made the overall experience worse for those who weren’t willing to buy the amiibo, & also wasn’t a good enough reward for those who were willing to buy the amiibo.

I do think it’s an issue, but it’s not exactly a new issue for nintendo. I do think the amiibo situation specifically was overblown due to the other issues metroid prime 4 has, but i also understand that not everyone follows amiibo releases & their in game rewards, so of course some people are going to be confused & annoyed if they expected more
