@Kriandis Sony is co-developing the sequel I thought? I know that's not full ownership but they seem to admire the studio and want to help them at the very least. Honestly with all of the acquisitions then closures this is probably better than them outright buying them.

@RicebinBernacky
I think the non boss fights can be pretty easy, but uhm yeah basically every boss fight in this game is brutal. While I enjoyed so much about this game, those difficult boss fights soured it at times. I gave up halfway through the final section. But I still recommend everyone to at least give this game a try! It does so much right and I hope the sequel solves the difficulty spikes!

@swoose Yeah some competitive players found this the other day thinking they were going crazy lol

It's nice they are still updating the main part of the game, but still a little sad that they have abandoned Salmon Run. I really hope they expand it even more in Splat 4 since there's still a lot of untapped potential for that mode.

The cover I am seeing on Amazon looks different than this. Was this just a special cover for the media or is there a way us normies can buy that one?

EDIT: Also the book is titled differently in the US?

They clearly accidentally sent the graphic out, but why would they add the games to a graphic in the first place if they weren't internally planning for them to release? Nice try, Nintendo lol

I love the amiibo but they are just too expensive to justify nowadays imo

Are the Splatoon characters not added with this update? Strange.

We can only hope there's a direct or more info to share soon because as it stands it just looks okay. Impressions from the Switch 2 events weren't glowing so I have some concerns but I hope to be proven wrong.

I definitely did not place 4th or higher in every knockout and yet I still got it. (I played them all, but a couple I only got 6-7th)

@SplatRay001 I lost most hope awhile ago but the 10th anniversary w/ nothing was the nail in the coffin for me. So hyped they finally did it with Switch 2 updates!

@Jack_Goetz This happened to me a couple times last Thursday or Friday. I noticed the Switch screen itself thought the Switch was handheld and not docked. After undocking and docking I have had 0 issues since, but still a little worrisome considering this never happened with my Switch 1 on same setup.

I know why Nintendo is continuing to go down this hybrid path and it makes 100% sense from a business viewpoint. But as a 95% docked player I can't help but wish there was a non-handheld version.

Apparently this only works in the testing room and private battles so it shouldn't affect normal online play at all.

@tweaknmod Definitely quieter and overall the controller just has a more "premium" feel. The sticks in general though are probably the most noticeable improvement!

Has anyone else been having issues with the dock/connection? A few times today it would switch to handheld mode randomly which was especially frustrating considering I was playing online. The Switch 2 feels way less sturdy in the dock compared to Switch 1. Is this just the unit I got or are other people also having this issue or noticing the instability?

Side note - that is also when I noticed just how hot the unit can get. I was shocked when I picked it up to fix!

@raymond23 While I don't fully agree with you, I am also disappointed that most of your time playing in Grand Prix is just driving from one course to the next. I like the idea, but I feel like only 1 of the 3 laps should be driving to the course instead of 2/3. I don't understand why they thought players should be spending 67% of their time just driving between courses.
