Topic: Please help a frustrated newbie

Hi - I’m trying to help a (young) family member switch to a special weapon and wondered if anyone can help with instructions. He starts with a main weapon and then charges the gauge at top right to full but then doesn’t seem able to actually switch to the special weapon. What are we missing???

@chelsea99 Might want to mention what game you are playing alot of games out there switch weapons.

@chelsea99 To use your special weapon, you press the right control stick after fully filling the gauge. Both control sticks act as buttons, as well, in addition to moving your character/camera. You'll also want to practice with your weapon set-up so you can get a feel of how your special weapon works. Hope this helped!

Good point!! Splatoon 3

Thank you @MarioLover92 - you have literally made a little boys month!!!! Appreciate you taking the time.

@chelsea99 You're totally welcome! Glad I could help
