I love the idea! I fear what the plaza may become because of this Splatfest, though.

It’s going to be awful and full of repurposed racist jokes.:lol:

In news unrelated to whatever the hell all this is, I've rediscovered my first love, the .96 Gal, and I can't remember why I ever left, because I'm splatting squids/octos left and right with this god drat thing. Maybe I've just gotten better at aiming so I can actually hit people with the two shots per second you get from this thing.

That’s my main and I’ll never give it up.:hfive:

Using a roller and killing as many enemies as you can while they spawn in is the best way to do it. Make sure to kill the ones about to use specials.

They’re not wrong unless you’re really good with rollers. No need for hostility in the squid kid thread.

I've been on the fence about getting this since I got my switch. I haven't played a console shooter since the original Halo because twin stick aiming sucks if you're used to a mouse and keyboard. How lost am I going to be trying to learn the controls/how to play? How is the community?

Gyro aiming is just as good as keyboard and mouse once you get used to it but it does take some getting used to. If you’re up to it then give the game a shot. It’s really fun and stands out from other shooter games.

I think his point was that he wants Nintendo to make it so people him him couldn’t do that in the first place. It’s nice that they’re pretty quick about bans though.

I really hope they add Urchin Underpass before they stop adding stages. The game feels a little weird without it. Saltspray Rig would be cool too.

Japan is getting another sponsored Splatfest in two weeks time - and it's a rerun from the previous game.

I’m glad I don’t have to participate in this one since it would be a very tough choice. Both those cookies own.

If you’re having a lot of trouble with Girl Power Station, watch a YouTube of someone doing it and just copy them. They always drop in set spawns the key is to splat as many of them as you can when they jump in and save a splashdown when it gets really hectic at the end.

It sucks but it’s just $20 a year. Even less if you do a group family buy.

I really hope Nintendo adds more to make it enticing other than a few NES games.

I played with a person today who was lv 93*, and I looked at his profile and he has played Splatoon 2 for OVER 1900 HOURS

I just don’t understand how that’s possible :psyduck:

I have multiple friends with hours like that in Destiny so it’s definitely possible.

Funny how Splatoon is my favorite current game, I have nowhere near that many hours invested in it, yet I’ve put in the same 60 hours into Octopath.

I don’t think I could put that much time into a game and still enjoy it. It’s kinda lame that the game even has ranks that cater to obsessive playing like that.

There's a direct scheduled for tomorrow evening, focusing on the next few months of Switch/3DS, and Splatoon always shows up for a check in with the Lab, so I'm guessing the mainstage rework gets unveiled in like a 60 second stinger and it's available this weekend.

They said we’d get content until at least the end of the year so maybe we’ll get a preview of that as well. I just really want Urchin Underpass since that felt like the defining map from 1 and it’s odd it’s still not here.
