They extended support for it to an entire year since it was more successful than they ever imagined. The sequel should be supported for much longer than the first game.

Specifically, they added a few more weapon variants (Sheldon's Picks) and kept patching it with more minor updates and bugfixes for more than a year. It only stopped in late 2016. The new weapon types were what was still planned.

S2 has a much more aggressive update schedule, with a full year of seemingly hefty content updates coming and two years of Splatfests at a minimum to S1's single year of fests.

Anyway, downloading right now, would be happy to splat with goons.

I feel like you could come up with a lifetime of splatfest ideas in a couple of days and just have them automatically run for decades, or just have them loop

It would have been a tougher choice if it was between mustard and ketchup, but as things stand, I have to side with Marina on this.

EDIT: Also got my Splatoon 2 bundle. Huzzah! Still waiting for my amiibo to arrive.

But they are best mixed together into fry sauce :smith:

(Mayo is more versatile, if this is the US splatfest I'm siding with the gremlin)

I like them both together and separately! Though, I like mayo slightly more, so I guess that's what I'd choose if these are the NA choices.

Ketchup blends are way less versatile than mayo blends. The best blend ketchup has us with mayo.

Side with the gremlins or else.

No that's salsa, ketchup is gross with most things that aren't potatoes.

A small amount of ketchup with scrambled eggs or an omelette is really good too, though.

Current status: extremely fresh

Also, as a S1 veteran, I have to say: the motion controls make approximately 1001% more sense with lightweight joycons than they ever did with a goddamn five-pound screened gamepad. If you had told me Splatoon was designed from the ground up for the 'cons, I would believe you.

The US fest will probably be different. NoA and NoE handle their own Splatoon regional servers.

I'm awake and ready to splat all day!!!!! Well from like 2pm onwards as I got invited to a mega early Dunkirk screening

When I first remembered this game was out after waking up my heart was filled with probably an embarrassing amount of excitement and joy :3:

You should edit this post and tell us how Dunkirk is once you've watched it.

The Euro splatfest is making me crave potato salad :ohdear:

My guesses for the NA one:
Hamburgers vs Hotdogs again
Already a sponsored splatfest to get that Brand Engagement going
Mustard vs Ketchup, but the picture implies that it's the neon yellow mustard that just tastes like vinegar

I see bonuses tied to point thresholds with some armor here and there, and buoys elsewhere. Armor is obvious, what do the buoys do?

They're not buoys, they're Gatchapon balls. Ie; randomized prizes that you open and find out what you won (generally a bit of cash, and probably a chance for Crusty Sean vouchers).
