Topic: Splatoon - OT

Can I just add that it is nice to see another Nintendo game that gives you an option to change your skin color? Also, I'm going to waste so much time buying clothes so that my Squid Girl has a cute outfit...

According to my iphone 8 and my new nintendo 3dU console you seem to be living in the past. I came to warn everyone about the dangers of a stats stacking system in gameplay from your alternate future to try and avoid the zombie apocalypse that excessive sales of splatoon will trigger in at least one of our parallel dimensions.

May the force be with you, and godspeed!

This is pretty cool, we get our own 2D arcade game in Splatoon:

Agreed!

This looks to be another Hyrule Warriors success: Possible short single player but TONS of side content! I can't wait to make my own squid girl!!!

I thought Hyrule Warriors' campaign was pretty lengthy. Then again, that could be because I chose a mode that kicked my butt many many times. I had to replay parts a lot.

They should have the Mario amiibo put Super Mario Sunshine rendition of Mario as a playable character.. or even just his weapon/outfit. I wasn't a huge fan of that game, but it feels like the perfect fit.

I would love foramiibos to add in game-specific outfits. Like, say, Mario's hat. Or Ness's shirt. Or a Kirby helmet. This could be very interesting.

Oh hell no. I don't want that tied to amiibo. Just make it DLC, I don't want a random figure lying around my house.

My game nights need this game type. So excited for this year. Mario Party in March, Splatoon in May, Project treasure sounds like a Gauntlet Legends 4 person hack and slash, and Rockband hinting at releasing a new game!

I think it actually sounds great as an Amiibo function.

From a business perspective, it's a great idea. But as someone who has no interest in Amiibo, I'd rather just buy FLUDD DLC.

I would love the FLUDD in the game. It'd make a really interesting weapon type too, defending your side by washing off paint instead of spreading it. I have no interest in any of Mario's amiibos though, so I'm not even sure if I'd get to use it.

Also Splatoon tumblr updated! You earn money to buy clothes based on how much turf you cover! So you don't even necessarily need to win to earn enough money.

I've got to agree with Rezalack I don't want little things like Mario accessories tied to just amiibo's. I've got three amiibos mainly for Smash and that's more then enough for me.
I'd like to see Luigi's hat in the game but I don't want to have to own a Luigi amiibo just to get it. What's wrong with just having it in the game already or just having it as DLC, this is Nintendo after all they don't make us pay 1.99 for every little thing. Big packs of DLC theme items or weapons sure pay a couple bucks. Didn't I hear that the developers are mostly from the AC series and how much Nintendo themed stuff have they added to those games.

I feel like FLUDD or some sort of Sunshine cameo will be in the game without a doubt. Could even see Mario make a cameo after a match washing all of the ink off.

So this could just be google translate, so take it with a grain of salt, but it sounds like the leveling system is just used to be able to purchase weapons.

I hope that's all it's for, I'd be so excited!

Splatoon tumblr updated and it's an indef look at the weapon system. Confirmation of what we figured, it's class based!

I am loving these weapons. The shield sounds like it would be useful defensive ability, I can imagine using it to block off narrow paths. And that missile looks like it would just plain rain down hell.
