It has already been confirmed that the next North American Splatoon Splatfest event will ask players to pledge their allegiance to the heroic Autobots or Evil Decepticons, but sadly that offer isn't being extended to Europe.
The Euro Splatfest occurring at the same time will instead ask Wii U owners if they prefer singing or dancing. Not quite as exciting, we're sure you'll agree.
Euro players - were you hoping for some Transformer-related action? Let us know by posting a comment.

May not be quite as exciting, but I think we've learnt to expect this from Euro Splatfests now! I'm fine without transformers, regardless. And, for the record, singing.
For those who've seen it, my dancing has a ...reputation. Much as I love singing, only one real choice for me!
The only choice close enough to the kid/squid transformation & the UK misses out ...
Anyhoo, splatlings - My body is ready!
I could have sworn someone said it was going to be Dr's v Daleks?I think singing will win the popular vote anyway,probably by a large margin.
I like trains.
I like to dance every now and then but have never really sang, so I guess I'll go with dancing.
People on fire move better than I do, but singing is something I can do well so that's what I will pick.
(PS I hope people will get my quote...)
That's a tough one! I'll say singing... and X Factor is coming back on 29th August!
That's not as fun as the American one. I don't like dancing, but sing occasionally sing in the shower, so I'll opt for singing.
LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME
Tough choice, might go for singing but will have to see =)
Sad that I dont can do neither of these
Where's the "I prefer trains" option? :/
I dont sing or dance,Does that mean im a mercenary
I like to sing and dance about trains........
@123akis X Factor returns on Michael Jacksons birthday?! Anyway I can't sing, but I love dancing like MJ, so I'm going with dancing
Sadly?
Luckily!
where is "i like train"? because i like train(people who watch asdfmovie will know that i'm talking about)
@C-Olimar it will be really cool to add train so it would reference asdfmovie!
I WANT TRANSFORMERS or a doctor who splat fest because i do like doctor who and transformers
i also hope for anime or cartoon splat fest as well in europe
Really lame Splatfest when compared to NA's Transformers one. I think I'll vote Singing and do nothing like I did in all the other Splatfests.
I don't really enjoy doing either of those things.
I don't understand why we have to have different Splatfest options either? Ok for sponsored things like the Transformers or the Japan noodle flavour ones that's fair enough, that's the sponsor's choice. But cats v dogs, water slides v roller coasters etc, why did they have to be different?
@GloverMist Heh, I think this is immensely more exciting than anything in the Americas so far (much like Rock vs. Pop).
I gotta go singing for that one. Even though that microphone on the pic looks really cheesy
@ricklongo I kinda agree. The thing I'm most excited about is the fact that Europe has had 0 Splatfests which act as ads for companies, whethers America and Japan have had those now.
Uhhh, that's a pretty dumb choice for me. I don't like singing or dacing - I'm majorly an instrumental type, so I prefer ROCKING OUT!!!
But of course, there's no third squid sister for a third option, so I'm forced to pick the lesser evil... I guess singing, then. Because I'm not criminally awful at that, unlike dancing.
I like to move it move it!
Sadly? That's great! I don't need advertising in my Splatoon.
For the record I'm Team Dancing. Couldn't sing to save my life.
And those Inklings' got some sweet moves... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bS5kai8dHlo
@ekreig You feel shafted when you don't get to enjoy advertisement in your Splatoon? That's sad.
Singing Vs. Dancing fits the game better than transformers.
I sing in a band, so I'll be representing us at this Splatfest!
@Pod
Really?
Kid-formers, squids in disguise!
(I appoligize profusely for that)
But really understand this "Ughh, advertisement" thing I see in comments section of every College Humour video. It's Transformers, in a Nintendo game! What's not to love? Plus, I personally feel that it's more likely that Nintendo paid Hasbro for the liscening rather than the other way around.
Anyway, it'll be Dancin' for me hands-down. One, because I have no idea what I sound like and two, most of the lyrics to songs these days are pretty crappy, if we're being honest.
Europe should get Jedi Vs sith next time
DANCING! I've got the boogy fever in my soul!
Hope Splatfest is smooth this time without those damn unstable connection antics!
@97alexk I think it'll probably end up more like this; "Get ready for the next EPIC SPLATFEST in America guys! We have JEDI VS SITH!" EU: "Ok guys, are you ready for the most epic splatfest yet?! This time, it's... LETTERS VS NUMBERS!"
If the choice is dancing vs singing.......I better be drunk
Not the most exciting theme, but I don't know anything about Transformers so I honestly prefer this.
While I don't sing or dance very often, my pick for this one is singing.
That'd be hard for me. But I'd go for singing.
But I'm in Murica.
Dudes! You were wrong last time you reported on Europe's Splatfest (South pole won suckers!) and you're wrong now. Who cares about that ridiculous Transformers franchise? I'd rather sing AND dance! =)
@97alexk YUSSSSSSS
Or even Rebels vs Empire! (Though i guess the general public wouldn't know the difference lol)
I can't vote neither...? Well, I'll just go with the popular option, which'll probably be singing?
Lol, that's so lame after NOA gets Transformers. Step up your splatfest game, NOE!
Pffft that's so lame :/ Can't we have the same splatterfest?
Europe generally has pretty lame Splatfests when compared to the ones in the U.S, so I've gotten used to that by now. For the record, though I don't normally do either, I'm going with Team Singing (because I can't dance if it were the end of the world, but my singing's alright).
@Pod yes, also zzzzzzzzz.
This is lame... singing, I guess
lol. You guys got such a sucky and lame Splatfest theme. Team Autobots! Go!
@abbyhitter Yeah we know
The transformers' movies are to the movie industry what COD is to the gaming industry. Both have mass appeal with visual spectacles that are highly successful, but underneath are just a big turd. I'm glad we didn't get the transformers
Does anyone else think it's weird that singing has a normal mouth, while dancing has an Inkling dancing? Shouldn't singing have those weird squid teeth?
@MarvinTheMartian Except the splatfest wasn't based off of the movies but rather a new cartoon.You could've at least gotten that right.
Anyway, glad I don't live in Europe, another boring splatfest with ugly Tee's to boot.
I could easily be way off on this as I am on the wrong side of the pond, but could these generic choices be due to the vast cultural differences when taking all of Europe into account? Drs vs Daleks, while interesting, wouldn't the interest in that be mostly limited to the UK and perhaps other English-speaking countries? Just a thought. Again- I could be way off.
Rhythm is a dancer!
They always find a way to make the current event even more EXCITING than the one before!!!
@abbyhitter Eww are you gay or something
Well, if I were in Europe I'd totally be team singing!
Europe Splatfest themes are soooo boring but I guess they are keeping it super general so it fits all of Europe...
@97alexk THIS. Also, I would give away all my snails and all my splatoon money for a inkling Vader mask. Perhaps all my real money too. Next weapon type: ink sabre!!??
For all of us who have moves like Jagger - ie can't dance without flailing arms about - we can join Team Sing.
@Zombo one thing that's worse than the Transformers movies are the recent Transformers cartoons. They stand in their lines, shout the names of their moves and fire laser beams at each other like musket men.
Most people don't even know what a Decepticon is.
I sing in the shower so I'll pick that team.
I was born to dance, baby!
@manu0 you don't feel shafted when NA splatfests are better than EU?
I don't see how its really advertizing its video games for the sake of peat does it matter? it could be good v evil for all we care would you still compain?
@Uberchu Again, I feel sad for you if you consider sponsored splatfests better than non-sponsored ones.
I don't believe in "good" and "evil", but at least that's not advertisement.
I'd rather have singing vs. dancing tb h
Hahaha... Is this Nintendo's way of telling Europe to go F themselves for so poorly supporting the company for the better part of a decade?
