If you can't put Bowser in a block, that implies that you can't put him in a bullet bill. What does that mean for other enemies? Lakitus in bullet bills? Mwahahahahahaha...
Will the arenas be the same as before? They should show off arowana and blackbelly - my favourites! Then again, I have the full game, so doesn't concern me!
@Captain_Gonru Yeah, we have subs over here. We also have a fast food take-away shop called Subway - do you have that over there?
I remember designing my own mario levels in non-lined notebooks. The problem is, the one with the most levels in, I threw out! Oh dear. Whilst I still have one or two, most of my inspiration for mario maker is in a Word document, with titles and brief descriptions of levels I want to make. Look out for the level "Rogue Plumbing" in your course worlds!
Urchin Underpass changes? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I love that map, and still remains my favourite alongside Camp Triggerfish. I don't see why it needs changing. Ahhhhh......
Whilst my Team Pop lost, I emerged victorious on Team Eat. My tactics are to wait a couple of days, and see which side has the most propaganda in Miiverse. Worked for me this time!
I normally chuck a Point Sensor or Splat Bomb over the top of the tower before I get on it. Point sensors are really good when riding the tower, to check who's hiding in the ink, and I find that Splat Bombs can be bounced just off the tower to make opponents scatter at your feet. My preferred weapons are the Splattershot Pro and Forge Splattershot Pro (hence SPlat Bombs and Point Sensor recommendations)
Why does Ninja Squid speed need lowering? If you have chosen this as your ABILITY, surely there should only be positives, not negatives? It's not like all abilities have negatives, just Ninja Squid (and stealth jump). Nonetheless, I'll still love this game
@rjejr RG comes with Ink Mine and Inkstrike, but MG has seeker and Inkzooka. Yeah, the inkstrike probably is the best special, but I think the versatility that the Seeker gives you in conjunction to the main and Inkzooka outweighs the slight disadvantage the 'zooka has to the inkstrike. Only my opinion though!
Those Octarians! Not only do they steal the Zapfish, they now steal our only hope of getting them back. When I get my second copy of Amazon, I'm gonna eat an Octopi for breakfast!
BREAKING NEWS BRITONS WHO PRE-ORDERED SPLATOON WITH SQUID AMIIBO FROM GAME - I just got an email from Game saying that the truck carrying my pre-order of Splatoon with the squid amiibo from the European warehouse has been stolen. Those old Octopi - you can't keep an Inkling like me from getting the game!
P.S. I know I already posted this, but I feel that it is necessary to tell everybody!

I know this song is annoying, but the have to have an interesting marketing strategy. After all, compared to other shooters, this is a whole new kettle of.... squid??
@Grumblevolcano "The problem revolves around that online matches only work with the Gamepad, I'd be certain that the feature would've been added if 2 Gamepads could be used with 1 console."
I swear that Nintendo were considering allowing some games to have two Gamepads??? I think I read it in a magazine. If it does happen (two Gamepads) the quality of the graphics and speed may be compromised, though nonetheless it would be worth giving it a go.
It was great that they managed to get the servers up and running again, but this actually has me a little worried. Is it going to be like this in the proper game? I certainly hope not, but I can't be certain...
@devilwaffle that sounds awesome! Perhaps using amiibo in splatoon to unlock arenas sounds awesome, or certain amiibos can add different obstac;es in Mario Maker. I'm probably specualating stuff that won't happen, but the idea is cool!
The Inklings look cool, definitely, but what about Mii characters? Even if its only your Mii's face on an inkling, that would be a great edition. Nonetheless, I had wanted to get this since I read about it on msn back in august, and still do.

@Mogster I was wondering the same thing.. I'm hoping it's Stratford, but I have no idea. Nothing on the website...
Re: Splatoon's Massive New Update, to Version 2.0.0, is Now Live
@EarthboundBenjy I know, but I mourn the loss of one of my favourite levels online. Save our Urchin Underpass! Save our Urchin Underpass!
Re: Nintendo UK's Summer Tour Kicks Off This Month With Super Mario Maker And Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash In Tow
If only for the Mario Maker, I am definitely attending this one

Re: Splatoon Version 1.3.0 Update Due on 30th June, Gameplay Adjustments Detailed
@OneBagTravel No, I haven't seen anyone else with a Power Mask (amiibo), Squidforce Tee (squidforce) or Blue Hi-Tops (Rockenburg)...

Re: Weirdness: Lorry Thieves Make Off With Splatoon Special Editions in Europe
Has anyone thought to ask HOW it got stolen?
Re: Weirdness: Lorry Thieves Make Off With Splatoon Special Editions in Europe
@123akis just stick them into their opponents ink with an empty Splat Charger - they'll never escape!
Re: Weirdness: Lorry Thieves Make Off With Splatoon Special Editions in Europe
@Chanchozoka yeah, I suppose so...
Re: Weirdness: Lorry Thieves Make Off With Splatoon Special Editions in Europe
@Chanchozoka look on the bright side, they'll be loads of copies for a fiver on eBay in a couple of weeks that's what I'm inking.
@Espy I got my replacement off Amazon, but I thought Squid normally hide in water, not jungles...
Re: Weirdness: Lorry Thieves Make Off With Splatoon Special Editions in Europe
These thieves must be whiz squids (sorry).

@Peach64 after cancelling my order - other companies are affected, though I don't know which ones. You're safe with Amazon though!

Re: Nintendo Download: 28th May (Europe)
It would be Splatoon that I'd download, but I had to buy a physical copy to get the Squid amiibo
UPDATE: those thieves got it instead...

I heard this was the worst Metriod game ever, but actually sounds really good. I'd still rather have another Prime for Wii U though
Re: GAME Launches UK Pre-Orders for Splatoon amiibo and New Wave for Super Smash Bros.
Will the Splatoon amiibo work with Mariokart 8 to have squid suits for your miis? That would be awesome...
