Topic: Splatoon - OT

OK, so I've decided to download this game. The question is, Preload or not?

Why wouldn't you preload?

Maybe in the future there would be discounts.

If you're downloading it then there's no real rush to preload. You've got weeks to download the game early.

I pre-ordered the special edition with the squid amiibo, and pre-ordered both Inklings.
The Inkling amiibo especially look very nice.

Here are gameplay from the 3 Turf War maps that weren't playable in the Testfire demo.

In addition to Urchin Underpass, that I linked to earlier:

... there's also Blackbelly Skatepark:

...and Arowana Mall:

Well if you are buying Day 1 then Pre-Load won't make a difference. From what you said before I assumed you were buying Day 1, I guess my bad on that part. If you are waiting for a deal you might be waiting a long time. Most Nintendo IPs don't get sales, the last one I can remember is Smash Sales.

Preload it is. I'm not getting any benefit from delaying the purchase anyway.

Dear God, has any one seen that new Splatoon commercial? Are they trying to lose sales or something, that was embarrassing to sit through my god. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjPOSKnOftA

I totally prefer the other video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oynGf9-T1UA

I think the Japanese commercial is definitely the best one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZyevotlKJw

I don't know. It doesn't really tell much about the game. I also like to see gameplay in my commercials.

Hahaha sweet Jesus....the cringes were intense on that one!!

...I stopped watching commercials a long time ago.

Actually, cringworthy would be that Wii music e3 demo playing the super Mario bros theme.

I don't mind the commercial, but what do I know with my inner kid at heart, heh

Seriously, is there that much of a difference between the marketing team in Japan and the marketing team in the states? I honestly think the Japanese one was awesome, god, that one man.

But even though they have seen this commercial, read the article on here about how Splatoon is great for children, know that the devs avoided using red ink because it looked like blood and cancelled voice chat because "swear words", people on here will still argue that Splatoon is not aimed at kids.

⬇︎ Yeah. It has to be like this:

Were you referring to showing the Youtube video? For those wondering, I was trying to show the Smash Bros. commercial. And I mean THE Smash Bros. commercial.

Apropos commercial.
There was a billboard commercial for Splatoon at a Baseball match. Seattle Mariners? I have no idea.

Nintendo is really trying to push Splatoon it seems.
