Dumb question but if I own a physical copy and I buy digital how does it work? It keeps the save file?

I originally bought physical and then got digital later and had no issues with my save file.

The Splatoon community did a solidarity move with the Smash community, causing Nintendo to axe their tournament stream. The end result is that lots of people think Splatoon is cool now.

That’s rad of them to do but everyone always should have thought Splatoon was cool.

What was the show of solidarity with Smash actually...about? Like, what is the drama about "free smash" or whatever? Trying to read those comments has made my eyeballs bleed.

Nintendo stopped sponsoring a tournament because people were going to play Melee emulated with this hack that allows online play. It’s understandable but they should have looked the other way, especially this time due to covid.

There was going to be a big online Melee tournament that was going to be running a hacked version of it that had rollback net code implemented into it. Obviously it had to run via emulator.

Nintendo DMCAed the tournament.

I think it was a cease and desist order, not dropping sponsorship.

Yeah they straight up canned the tournament instead of just pulling out. This pissed off a lot of people, especially when playing in person is a really bad idea right now.

I'm watching the community's replacement for the cancellation, The Squid House, now since it would have gone until like 5am for me. Splatoon's pretty good!

E: Apparently the prize pool ended up at 28k?

At last, some fresh Splatfest content instead of tepid reruns. And what better way than to celebrate Mario being old by asking which powerup is the better one, the Mushroom or the Star? (The obvious answer is Mushroom.)

This will also be the final final Splatfest - for the time being, that is. Time to choose your side!

Invincibility does not last long. Size lasts until you take a hit. What defines as a 'hit' is....questionable. If it's as small as a flea bite, it's equally useless.

In most mario games, the mushroom seems less a powerup and more like a way to get back to baseline when you have been weakened.

One additional point of this Splatfest: Since this is part of Mario's 35th anniversary bash, you could win fancy medals if you topped certain events. This is no different for Splatoon, where the Top 35 players (Top 100 in Europe) of each Splatfest Team will get one of these medals:

That art is clearly a MEGA mushroom not a SUPER mushroom. Super Pearl would be like, Marina tall.

Which brings me back to "Mushroom isn't even a real powerup, the state of not having one is a weakened state"

I haven’t played Splatoon in a long rear end time. Blowing my mind to see so many people on a much higher level than me at 31.

70s and 60s is quite common. Good lord, how many hours does that take
