Europe got their Flight vs Invisibility Splatfest announced, dunno about the others yet. Strangely I don't see it announced in-game yet. Maybe tomorrow then.

I think invsibility will be more popular but flight is way more useful if you're not a criminal/creep

I think it should be pointed out that Invisibility is worthless when every Squidkid owns at least one inkshooter. Flying is clearly the superior power, regardless.

It'd be cool if the respective sides got quick super jump and ninja squid but that's never going to happen

Nintendo of America announced they're giving exclusive publishing rights to the Splatoon 2 -themed bundle to Walmart, release on September 8th.

They also confirmed that the next Splatfest will also be Flight vs. Invisibility, so I guess that will also be Australia's and New Zealand's theme. The Splatfest will be during September 1st and 2nd.

According to that picture it's the "have to be completely naked" type invisibility, no thanks. Also as a reasonably nice person I can't think of a thing I could do with invisibility that isn't unpleasant in some way to someone

Same i haven't struggled with a choice like this since the Sleep vs Food splatfest in the first game

The answer is clearly flight. Have you seen airfare costs lately? Check-in? The TFA? All of that bypassed.

flight doesn't mean you also get the ability to withstand subsonic air pressures, or the drop in temperature at altitude, or all the bugs that splat against your face at lower altitudes

This Splatfest choice is actually a hard one I like it. I think we'll see a pretty close popular vote this time

Well if we're going down that route, invisibility would also make you blind as light would just pass straight through your retinas :colbert:

Going to have to side with Pearl on this one.

Usually the voting starts one week before the Splatfest, so we still have to wait a week for the shirts.

Glad I just imported everything in that bundle. It's a good bundle though. I hope this means they'll make a reverse color pair do you can have two green and two pink.

I would choose invisibility and become the greatest investigative journalist of our time. Flight seems awesome in theory but there's a lot of things you need to worry about while flying. It's also so public that the government will eventually catch wind of you and capture you for testing. Big Airlines also wouldn't want you going around bragging about not having to fly with them ever again.

It's harder to think of ways I could use flight for fun and profit, whereas if I were invisible I could tie cops shoelaces together and pickpocket the rich.

So with that bundle being announced is there going to be an option to buy the joycons separately? It's stupid if not. I'd love to give them my money for those.

The ink colours will be indigo vs green, like in the picture. Let's see you pervs try and make something gross out of that.

There's literally no way to transfer saves between consoles yet, right? If my wife bought that Splatoon 2 bundle, she couldn't move her current save file over to the new console?
