Topic: Splatoon 3

@MrCarlos46 4 idols! Please! I have been begging for this for literally years now! Just split them into 2 teams of 2. Then you can even mix-and-match which characters rep which team. Maybe there could even be a unique way of showing this, EG certain songs only play when C1 and C2 are on a team, or when C2 and C4 are together, etc.

@Dev-N Having 4 idols in a group makes it easy to bring back 2-team Splatfests rather than risk another mess that 3-team Splatfests brought. They can even allow for mix-and-matching to prevent it from being bias towards a certain idol again.

Do you think Nintendo may have Summer Nights in late May instead of the July slot of last year? I was looking back at the Splatoon 1 Splatfests and one of them was Burgers vs. Pizza. Perhaps to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Splatoon, they do Burgers vs. Pizza vs. Hot Dogs which also kind of fits a summer theme.

@Grumblevolcano That would probably be saved to June or July. And I think after that, that’s it for Splatfests in Splatoon 3.

Hey so I'm a Splatoon veteran. Started with 1, played 2, and played a bit of 3 when it first came out but dropped it quickly, and only now I started getting back into it. Are the Splatfests really rigged?

Not sure about rigged, but a lot of the sweats are on Big Man’s team, and it could be because of the option and what they like doing or to let Big Man retain his winning streak, especially after Shiver won 5 Splatfests in a row.

@Dev-N It appears we’re almost at the end with Summer Nights coming up in a few months. Nintendo has one last chance (assuming there’s no 10th anniversary fest) to give the other sides good teams too rather than just for Big Man.

Huh, first Splatfest I don’t even check out Splatsville at all.

Hey, does anyone know how to report a bug?

Idk if this link will work but this is what happened.
Please don’t judge the bad gameplay 🫣

The May calendar was shown, and no sightings of a 10th anniversary Splatfest.

In case anybody here is interested, Eggstra Work will be happening in about 24 hours from now.

Hello friends! It’s been about a week and half since I made my decision, and I’m not sure why it took me so long, but I’m here now to announce that due to various factors, I have decided to resign from my position on my current team, to retire from competitive play, and to take an extended break from Splatoon in general.

I’m not sure if or when I’ll return to the scene or the game, but for now, my focus is elsewhere. I wish you all the best of luck with your matches, and if any of you all want to continue to talk outside of this forum, you can add me on discord, @djmhxstgsrcc.

Thank you all for everything over the last 6 months. Good luck, and have fun.

@AccessibleDaydream Take all the time you need! I have been in a similar spot for a bit now. Enjoy your break, and when/if you return, we’ll be waiting!

Next weekend is the last full weekend of May (June 1st is on a Sunday) so it seems there's no May Splatfest considering the latest sneak peek could've started is today.

Summer Nights splatfest was mid/late July last year, I think.
@Grumblevolcano

No anniverasryfest, it seems

Happy 10th, Splatoon! I played the series for the first time during Pulp V No Pulp at a friend's house, but didn't own a Switch or a Wii U so I couldn't get it for myself. Fast forward a few years, and I got Splatoon 3 on launch day! I haven't played in a while, but I will be hopping on later to enjoy a commemorative game or two 😊 Everything, from the gameplay to the music to the lore, is just so amazing!

I didn't really become a Splatoon fan until a couple years after the first game came out. I wasn't even sure if I would like the game actually, since I don't play shooters that much. Then I tried out the online and I already loved it... makes me wish I played in at least one of the first game's Splatfests. Heck, even the art style grew on me. It looks all hip, cool, and totally 90s, and the series' awesome music compliments its art direction and gameplay perfectly. I played quite a bit of Splatoon 2, including a lot of its Splatfests, and got even more into the series with Splatoon 3. I finished all the games' story modes too, including the DLC for 2 and 3. I even got quite a bit of mileage from Splatoon 1's online before the Wii U's online servers shut down.

I can't believe Splatoon has been around for a full decade now... I feel old, lol. Maybe I'll dust off my copy of Splatoon 3 for some rounds, it's been a hot minute since I last played it.

I’ve been with Splatoon since S2 launch day and the amount of joy this silly little Nintendo Shooter has brought me is insane! It’s crazy to think about it being so old now. I’m glad that Splatoon has cemented itself as a staple Nintendo IP and I can’t wait to see more in the future!
