As far as I know all the amiibo content is in the game as shipped. Its not the stuff that's being rolled out as post-launch DLC.

I'm not seeing the confusion here... :shrug:

On-Disc stuff is still DLC since you have to download the access key for it...but I'm seriously not getting the confusion here, I was under the serious impression that the amiibo content was in the game at launch, and not post-launch content like Hyrule Warriors' was.

If the amiibo stuff is DLC, do we know when it's supposed to release?

EDIT: Or was there an announcement of a DLC release of the amiibo-gated content that I missed?

Seriously, is there or is there not a DLC component to the Splatoon amiibo content? Silentman0 and Zaphod42 are both implying that there is, but I'm not finding any corroboration.

You tap the amiibo to get, perhaps even download off it, the content that is otherwise unavailable to people. In that way, you could say the costumes and mission 'remixes' are paid DLC because you pay to purchase the figurines that load this content to the game.

They are saying it is paid dlc because you have to buy the amiibo. That is literally the whole thing.

Okay, so this was just an incorrect usage of the term DLC, and the amiibo content is included with the game at launch. then?

Show me where I can download an amiibo (EDIT: Or the content the amiibo unlocks) and I'll be super thrilled to not have to wait outside a store tomorrow morning.

I'm very excited about them releasing more weapons because I'm really interested in the burst-damage shotgun weapons like the Blaster and having more weapons in that vein will be super cool, I believe with my heart.

I was legitimately confused by people referring to the amiibo content as DLC. Yes, in some games amiibo content has been added with a DLC patch, like the racing suits for Mario Kart 8 and the random drops from Hyrule Warriors. But certain statements here were really making it sound like either the amiibo content wasn't going to be in the game until some of the post launch DLC hit, or that the amiibo gated content would also have a paid DLC unlock option.

Then everyone started jumping down my throat about it.

Eh may be the objective but you definitely shoot each other. And shooting each other covers the area in some ink anyways.
