Marina is instantly likeable from her drawing but Pearl grows on you from her attitude and the fan art. I like both of them to greater levels than Callie and Marie because I find their personalities more interesting.

(Callie was the better sister.)

Even though the logistics of the official Splatoon 2 headset are silly I ordered one because the idea of having a Splatoon headset is awesome and I like the actual design.

Yeah plus if I don't like the sound quality I get the dongle out of it for mixing and can use my preferred headset instead, if that works.

The real question is where the gently caress are our splatoon 2 joycons?

I think the real question is do you have to rebuy the game to play in different regions?

So, the D.va effect then?

Yeah but D.Va is like if you mashed Pearl and Marina together, since she's gotten sexy fan art from the start, then got gremlin art later, and went from a D tier hero in popularity to S+

EB Games has a whole lot of Splatoon garbage including the Pearl cap from the game cover https://ebgames.com.au/loot-231911-Splatoon-2---Inkling-Trucker-Hat-Loot

Thinkgeek also has the white tank she's wearing too if you want to maximize your trucker red neck squid look

Get hosed people who didn't buy splatoon amiibo like, 2-3 months ago when they were all readily available and on mega discount.

I can't wait for the inevitable Pearl and Marina amiibo. I got the new girl and boy ones too although I didn't really want another squid so I got them separately instead of the three pack.

Also I'm probably going to get a personal amiibo card of my character's preferred look because holy poo poo why would I carry an amiibo around with me when a card makes it way easier.

Splat balloons still pretty worthless

Yeah I used them for a bit and they were incredibly underwhelming. Then I moved to those triangle things and suddenly I learned what getting kills with grenades felt like.

Also I freaking love the Off the Hook time that plays before maps are announced with Marinas backing vocals and Pearls little squid phrase. Also that dj scratch every map announcement is so drat satisfying.

i absolutely don't mind just joining a general game lobby with friends and occasionally playing with or against them, that's one of the things i enjoyed most about team fortress 2 and one of the things i missed the most about overwatch. sometimes it's just fun to get into duels with your friends.

i just seriously wish there was a way to queue up for games together at all rather than having one person join a game and then hope your friend can join in on you before the round starts

Just bully pubbies until you take it over if you can't get the last spot.

I can 100% guarantee you mayo will win in Japan or at least be most popular. Some dude wrote a loving side story in his book series about mayo and the main characters love of it in Japan. It's huge there.

Also mayo is better lol you loving child. Way more uses for it.

Outside of America nobody puts ketchup on poo poo except American food, it's mayo all the way down. Kind of a questionable choice for the first splatfest really

all the Japanese people use the Luna Blaster and by the time you even see them because they're playing the game 3 seconds ahead of you you're dead

Yeah it's pretty infuriating when you get 3 japanese pairs and get absolutely hosed and killed despite them not even aiming at where you are, but where you were. One time this happened one of the japanese players disconnected and we won but didn't deserve it at all. At least the tammates of them didn't derank.

I'd rather play against Europeans at that stage because at least its a closer speed time. I really wish this game had dedicated servers.

I think the only Amiibo I would ever buy is a Mr. Grizz one since that could look like a tacky souvenir I bought in a tourist trap shop in the Pacific Northwest

It's actually an Ainu native bear carving that was made during the early to mid 1900s that was made to sell to Japanese tourists that hawked at the crazy natives they tried to exterminate as a way to provide for themselves. They are technically sacrilegious because ainu religion disallowed making carvings of sacred animals but they were desperate for money and the tribe was known for its bear rituals. Now they are associated with Hokkaido tourism.

I have one ironically in my house from the 1950s before splatoon 2 came out
