They already did "Free DLC" with Mario Kart.
Besides, there are other companies doing it, for instance, there are like 6 DLC characters on Tekken Tag 2, they are free DLC characters

>Only 3 hours to play the demo
They tried with this Direct and I do love the idea of a new Nintendo franchise, but my interest in the game after the Direct is approximately 0.
The single-player mode seems obligatory more than anything else and the multiplayer seems real limited option-wise from what we've seen.
If it's amazing, maybe I'll still get it. But for now, I'm probably waiting for it to hit $20 in 10 months like all of the other Nintendo games that don't hit their sales mark.
>>293582412
both
>>293582751
No TF2 had features delayed for years until after release.
TF2 also had jack shit for content for years too.
>Day 1 DLC
It's ok when Nintendo does it.
>>293582574
Probably late reaction to all of the problems people pointed out over the course of several months of playtest events. Just consider how it was literally just weeks before launch that we heard about plans to address no parties, no joining friends online, etc.
>>293582574
It's the former. I mean the latter factors in, they need to get games on the Wii U with these months of no games in between, but they learned with Mario Kart 8, after the online fucking died the DLC brought it back. That's why they spaced the Animal Crossing stuff out so far even though it was complete.

I know right?? It's just like Wonderful 101 all over again! :D :D
>>293582780
Why not both?
>>293582552
Yeah lets be honest.
Im looking forward to the game but its pretty obvious that its not finished on release, or they're taking a strategy with the game to keep it fresh by holding back content and letting it release every couple of months so the game doesn't get stale quickly.
I don't mind too much the maps and gear being held back but shit like custom lobbies should be there day 1, I wouldn't be surprised if the devs had their own vision for the game that didn't include them but the backlash made them change their mind and so its not ready day 1.

And when they showed off finished maps telling you to look forward to them months after release?
Or how they locked an entire gamemode behind social media clicking?

I like free DLC, but the Wii U is really not designed for it with its tiny flash memory.
>>293582831
No, it launched with a full feature set. Things like ranked mode, matchmaking, custom rules, playing with friends weren't delayed for months to generate le epic free dlc praise.
BOY I SURE CAN'T WAIT TO PLAY THE DEMO AT MIDNIGHT ONLY TO HAVE NINTENDO'S BROKEN ASS THIRD WORLD SERVERS GO DOWN
>>293583086
But it could die if this flops and everyone forgets about it,
>>293582908
Maybe I'm crediting them too much, but I feel like if they're not dumb they'll realize this is a new IP on a system made for nintendo fans, so they're trying to keep interest at least throughout summer. I don't know, I can't find it in me to be upset about this. It's all free
>>293582513
>4am-5am

>>293583064
You really didn't miss much. Just more details on mechanics and stuff we already knew about.
>>293582973
It already is a meme ever since they announced the game. Whether it will be a flop or not will not change that.
>>293582841
I agree that Day 1 is still BS. The only silver lining I can see is that you can sell them afterwards, so when you've unlocked everything they have to offer you can pass it along instead of everyone having to buy it new. So:
>1 person buys figures
>shares with all friends
>sells them for maybe half of what they paid for them
It works out better than
>everyone pays full price
>1 hour intervals
Eh, they better hope their servers are secure as shit because if Club Nintendo can't handle a bunch of people accessing at once, I'm not sure I'll even be able to play 30 minutes.
>>293583148
Better to fix it earlier than later

>>293583070
I never said to directly compare them as if they were clones, retard. Valve's different approach to long term support isn't different just because they advertised it differently. Go fuck yourself.
>>293583064
Check youtube you dummy.
>>293583021
You might want to take another look outside of this thread, most people had their hype killed by this Direct.

did you forget that Nintendo got the fuck out of there?
>>293583070
>Or how they locked an entire gamemode behind social media clicking?
That didn't happen. They locked it behind enough people reaching a certain level ingame.
>only the winning team gets the slugs
>even if you tear shit up every match, and you team still loses sorry buddy.
Just make it so everyone can get them with enough points, but the winning team gets bonus slugs.

>>293583197
Yeah thats definitely a strategy they seem to be taking.
Stuff like squidfests also remind me a bit of mobile games like llsif and are a good way to keep players coming back.
The only real issue imo is them holding back custom friends stuff since i feel that will make people hold out on purchasing it until that update is available.
>>293582841
>tfw took the cheap shipping on my amiibo pre-order
Fuck it's gonna be July before I can get that sweet schoolgirl set.
>>293583132
I actually really liked the diversity in those supers. I feel like they're all actually useful.
The variety in this game is actually nutty.
>>293582574
One hiding as the other. You decide which order.
>>293583290
But this isn't long term support. This is patching in basic features months down the line because they weren't finished.
It's a fucking Early Access game, not a complete game with additions, it's an incomplete game missing core parts.

>I'm mad I have to fork over cash for the one costume I want
Be honest with yourselves, do you actually want the robot or the samurai gear?
>>293582868
I'm not saying is a bad thing, but they probably are lauching the game early to fill summer with something. What else is coming out for WiiU?
>>293583253
Thats probably why the demo is available to download in advance.
Are the splatfests the only way to get Sea Snails? That seems like a pretty raw deal if it's the ONLY way to upgrade your gear.
Also there was something about rerolling abilities? Sounds like getting the abilities you want on the clothes you want is going to be hell.

The gear should just go in your regular inventory. You would lose the missions though, as they have to be tapped each time.

It's also the same reason why there's "free DLC" like the Paintbrush that was already advertised before.

No other amiibo has worked like that. I just used my friends amiibo to get some minor shit in HW without ever needing it again.
