These weapons all look cool, but I'm unsure how to unlocking of it will work. The only way I can think of is that they will use the spaces after level 20, as the Forge Splattershot Pro comes available at that level. Unless, of course, we get the Berry version at a lower level than the Forge one, but I personally find that unlikely.
We can also see a Bamboozler and a Slosher on the front. I personally hope that the Slosher has suction bomb and inkzooka, and the Bamboozler with Seekers and Bubbler, although I'm not sure that that is really going to happen. I also want a new Jet Squelcher with Squid Beakons and Bubbler, and 52 Gal with splat bomb and echolocator. I can dream, can't I

@A01 please, send me a link to the bookmark website. I'll play and star them, to hopefully stop it happening again.

By the way, I'm happy for anyone's bookmarks. Bookmark mine here: https://supermariomakerbookmark.nintendo.net/profile/stinky-t?type=posted

If we look at the box, we can see that we'll be getting a new Splattershot, squiffer, and splattershot pro (announced in direct) as well as a slosher, bamboozler and 3 others

@NintyMan Looking at the past amiibos, they give single player missions with alternative weapons/play mechanics. So, at a guess, amiibos yielding a Blaster, (or more likely) a slosher, or heavy splatling. Though, I'm unsure we will see more amiibo. Splatoon has been out for a while, and I don't think that any more amiibo would 'fit' if you get what I mean. Also, the Octoling files were updated, but I don't think we going to be able to play as those. Nonetheless, it would be cool to have more amiibos

My favourite stage is still Arowana Mall. In no particular order, its followed by Walleye Warehouse, Mahi Mahi Resort, Ancho-V Games, Bluefin Depot, Saltspray Rig, Blackbelly Skatepark, Flounder Heights, Camp Triggerfish and Urchin Underpass. I do also like Port Mackeral, Piranha Pit, and Kelp Dome. I'm not too keen on Moray Towers, Hammerhead Bridge and Museum D'Alfonsino, but I don't hate them either. What are your favourite stages?

Splatoon is fantast-ink!

played it months ago at comic-con and loved it - its SUPER DUPER FUN CARNAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really liked it

Ahhh... Nintendoland... I feel so sorry for you....

@CHET_SWINGLINE just use whatever suits you. I started off with the Aerospray MG, before moving on to the .52 Gal Deco, Splattershot Pro, and now, Mini Splatling. There are quite a few helpful stuff on youtube regarding weapons and tactics, but don't take any if it as gospel. Try to think about a weapon's strengths and weaknesses, and the subs that it has/abilities you can equip to counteract it. But - biggest tip I can give - you have sub weapons for a reason. USE THEM!! Just because its an ink mine or sprinkler or squid beacon - especially squid beacon - doesn't mean you don't have to press R! Unless you're against me, in which case...

Now its as stable as fluorine!
Its so stable that I can barely stand up!
(any other puns?)

@Iggly Interesting combination. I assume I'll use the point sensor to find my targets, and inkzooka for long-lange shots. Reminds me of the Forge Splattershot Pro... Anyway, I like the Mini Splattling at the moment

Any news on subs or specials? Splat bomb and bomb rush is good, but I'd happily consider an alternative combination.

@Jamotello I wish

@andrew20 no, bring Gamecbe to wii u virtual console. Luigis Mansion, SUper Mario Sunshine, Twilight Princess (although they've got the HD one) Metroid Prime (although Trilogy is on there already), and Pikmin. Any other ideas of GC games?

This is probably the best paintbrush loadout. The inkbrush is fast, but not enough range for me. The octobrush is my paintbrush of choice, but squid beakons are useless in a fight (ever see "splatted by Squid Beakon"?) and it already has short range capabilities which makes the kraken a bit out of place. At least the splat bomb and inkzooka loadout extends its maximum range! Though personally, I'm a splattershot pro/.52 gal/ mini splatling fan!

The only reason I ever played Fusion was with the 3DS Ambassador program.

Any news about the web portal yet??

You're in a block now, you're in a mine now... doesn't quite have the same ring to it, does it?

glad to see so much interest

Kuribo laughs
Bowser laughs
Kid laughs
Squid laughs
Kid - wait, squid - wait kid - wait, squid - wait, kid...

Without Yoshi, Panga's levels would maybe be easier.

So in that respect...

@ULTRA-64 The idea of a deathmatch would be interesting, and I would like it, but the question is, how to implement it? Firstly, it would have to be between teams, because of the inking. Also, how would you stop campers? Splatoon's stages and modes are designed to force players into the centre, but with a deathmatch, many players may just stay in their spawn. It'd be interesting to see if, and how, Nintendo implement this

@gauthieryannick @aji15 Those levels look good, will try them later

All of these levels look excellent. If only my levels were as good as these look. Sorry, Hang in There. (843D-0000-00EC-6458)

@Sonic4life I've heard good things about that, and I really want to get it, bit I haven't played it

@Splatburst yeah, its called Super Mario Maker

As everyone else has posted their top 10...

1. Splatoon
2. Smash Bros.
3. Super Mario Maker
4.Nintendoland
5.Mariokart 8
6.Super Mario 3D World
7. New Super Mario Bros. U

I can't think of anything else worthy after these 7 that I've played, but Metroid Prime Trilogy would be up there if it had eShop titles, as well as Mario 64 and Mario World

I really want this. When's the release date?

@Anchel that pretty much sums up my opinion as well!

Miitomo... if its free and on Windows Store, I'll get it, but if not... forget it

@Kirk New exploit with the midpoint flags? What's that? I never heard about that one.

Slightly off topic, but has anyone from Europe managed to get the Super Mario Maker update? I've shaken a sign as much as I can, but no checkpoint forms... It makes me sad...

@gefflt Tried a few of yours. I managed to do Mariocean - its probably one of the few actually GOOD underwater levels. Spellbound Castle is just pure evil - too hard for me!

Some great levels. If you want a challenge, play my level Boo Persuit 91A4-0000-00BF-96F7. Out of 111 attempts, no one has cleared it. Yet...

@MeatyDino It would appear so, but I'm not sure how it would work.. Which form would it assume? Would it change if mario powered up/down without touching it while its still on screen? We can only wait until November 4.

@SetupDisk have you heard of the Mystery Mushrooms?

@WaxxyOne they already said that you would have to clear it from the beginning once, and again from each checkpoint. There is only a maximum of two checkpoints per level, so... three perfect runs????

@WaxxyOne Ohhhhh... thank you.

@Mk_II Stay fresh!

"Players can choose to edit and re-upload their own levels, or create new levels from scratch using this feature."

Does this mean that we can edit our existing levels online? Or do we have to delete and re-upload them? Also, a burning question - if you delete a level, does it still count towards your level count, or can you upload something in its place? Thanks.

What if Shakespeare was deciding the Splatfests? To be or Not to be? Anyone? No?

Is it something to do with Mario World? My level Bomb-ombs Below ID: A69D-0000-0046-94A1 hasn't been cleared yet. Yet...

11pm is just a bit too late. I'll just skip this one.

I had to be in the 1% that voted New Super Mario Bros, didn't I?

Really looking forward to a new map. Staaay fresh!

@Aneira @Plateface @KomrathDE one word: agreed.

Super Mario!!! Woooooohooooooooooooooo!

Seriously, this game looks soo good. Im downloading it on day 1, but still jealous of America, who get to pre-download it, but that's a whole different debate. The only feature that I want that isn't here already is to be able to send levels to Friends before posting them on Miiverse for the whole world, but it doesn't matter if it isn't here - Super Mario Maker for the win!
