Yes, I thought the same. I doubt they'd create new assets/textures, but rather recycle ones found in the various caves already present in the game to make something new.
To me its also a peculiar decision why they decide to add a dungeon of all things. TP is top-notch regarding dungeons, both in amount and quality design, but falls flat on its face on almost everything else. Almost the opposite as wind waker, where I was extremely dissapointed they didn't add a dungeon when receiving nayru's pearl. Also, locking a dungeon behind amiboo, leads me to believe that the added dungeon is the most signicficant change in the game. If that is true, another dissapointment on what else to expect.
If I buy a game I want the entire package, not parts of it hidden behind som kind of payment.
Not.I wish people would decide finally if they want amiibo to be more useful in a game or not. It's getting annoying, this constant back and forth.
Well good for you, right? Can you not like them without me having on-disc DLC?I'm cool with this, I like my amiibo collection and I like using them to get cool unlocks
Like a damn fiddle!To make TP more appealing, we created a new amiibo.
As stated before, it's not hard to come by in North America. Can't speak for the rest of the world.Wait, looks like it'll be cheaper to buy the game + Amiibo separately.
I mean, the sold out bundle will certainly not drop in price meanwhile the base game can.
The next Zelda game.
Wow. There's still people to believe that ? Are you trying to tell me that if it wasnt for the Amiibo, Nintendo wouldnt have released new content for a minimal HD upport of a 2006 GC game sold for 40 to 50 euros ?
.Sounds like just a new part of the Cave of Ordeals.
I think I'd like to know a little more about what it potentially unlocks in Zelda Wii U tbh. Also, is Link back to being left handed like the Gamecube version?
Yes, from the screens, this is the version with the sun rising in the east.I think I'd like to know a little more about what it potentially unlocks in Zelda Wii U tbh. Also, is Link back to being left handed like the Gamecube version?

Amiibo becomes DLC....what a horseshit
Inagibe how different the attitude would be if this "cave" dungeon, and minor dlc were part of a $10 bundle from EA or UBI Soft.
I guess it's ok though when parts of a game are locked in a plastic toy.
It is DLC locked behind amiibo, but I also think it is true that without Amiibo it probably won't be created because Nintendo DLC doesn't sell that well outside a couple of games.
Edit: practically the DLC follows the same pattern as games for Nintendo systems, is still behind the market in the digital vs. retail ratio.
So it's day 1 DLC on disc, that you need a buy a physical toy for to unlock?
Not.
With that off the table, screw this noise.
Well good for you, right? Can you not like them without me having on-disc DLC?
Like a damn fiddle!
If this is true in what world is this good? This is just glorified on disc DLC a practice I thought we have left behind because of the backlash.
Let's be real here it's okay because it's Nintendo.
Please stop.
I agree with the people complaining about amiibo here because they don't want the extra clutter. Cards or just straight downloads as an alternative would be nice.
Please do not bullshit me with "voting with your wallet". With your wallet, you can only vote "yes", or don't vote at all.Its not really my or other amiibo fan's problem is people don't like this. We're buying amiibo in such large quantities that Nintendo almost has no choice but to give us content that makes use of them. Obviously you can vote with your wallet and not buy twilight princess hd or any other game with amiibo locked content, but amiibo content is clearly here to say same way season passes are.
I've pre-ordered the LE that comes with Wolf Link but I still think it's a horrible practice IF it's actually what qualifies as a dungeon and some grotto or additional Cave of Ordeal floors. This isn't the first time Nintendo has locked non-cosmetic stuff behind games though. Splatoon has 10 levels (I think per Splatoon Amiibo) locked to the player and I don't think there's no in-game way to get them.
At that point they'd overcharge for the DLC because they want you to buy the toy.
Who else can charge that much money for so little content, and get gleeful reactions?
