RE: Splatoon (Series) | Splatoon 3 Announced - Moonface - Mar 6th, 2021

I don't think it needs to spray ink. It could be that it can be launched to higher places or get into small gaps. Making it spray ink wouldn't make it very different to the Inkling, and then I'd question why not just make it co-op with two Inklings instead if there isn't many differences?


RE: Splatoon (Series) | Splatoon 3 Announced - Karo - Mar 6th, 2021

Thats true or maybe it ahs some mechanic where you switch places in story mode or it can be done co-operatively like getting into higher spots or tight places maybe? But a fully co-op inkling/octoling mode sounds like a lot of fun!

Splatoon 3 - Return of the Mammalians Trailer
A new trailer for Splatoon 3 was shown during todays Nintendo Direct, showing off some new weapons for the game and a look at the games single player story mode, where some very familiar faces will be lending a hand in Return of the Mammalians, where the Inklings’ world is about to get a lot hairier…

I really want to get into this game when it launches and not wait months later for it to die out to hardcore fans. It's really fun to play and I think it'd be a fun experience if we could all play as well ^_^

Splatoon 3 - Salmon Run Next Wave Revealed
The next wave of Salmon Run’s co-op action returns in Splatoon 3! But with this mysterious new giant Salmonid in the picture it might be a tougher challenge than swimming upstream!




If this could work in split screen I'd be all over this mode! I love co-op wave based survival, but I'm not sure how long my patience would last playing this with random teammates when I'm sure I'll end up being paired up with some little kid who can't tell left from right. Rolleyes


RE: Splatoon (Series) | Splatoon 3 Announced - ShiraNoMai - Feb 10th, 2022

I've read one rumor about split screen finally being enabled for this game but it might be some copium shit from fans. No sources cited. Eh

Still, can only hope! It is confirmed you can play locally via other Switches but not split screen yet. Hmm


RE: Splatoon (Series) | Splatoon 3 Announced - Karo - Feb 11th, 2022

I'd be willing to play Salmon run with the two of you if you'd like! The only thing is we'd need 1 more to escape the dreaded random! Gasp

I also must let you know I am not very good!


RE: Splatoon (Series) | Splatoon 3 Announced - ShiraNoMai - Feb 11th, 2022

I'm pretty lousy at shooters so don't you worry, I'll be eating shit alongside you while Moony carries ROFL

Definitely sounds like a fun romp though. I feel like every time I get an entry in Splatoon, it just collects dust cuz I get into it way too late.

Aww, it's not like Uncharted where you can do private co-op games with just two people instead of the full number?

And yeah I'd like to play this entry. I have 2 but I've never even booted it up and I expect it's too late to get into that game now. Eh

Splatoon 3 Releases on September 9
Nintendo has blasted us out of nowhere not with ink, but with a release date for Splatoon 3! The game will release on September 9.


Additionally, the Octo Expansion for Splatoon 2 has been added to the Switch Online Expansion Pack.


RE: Splatoon (Series) | Splatoon 3 Announced - ShiraNoMai - Apr 24th, 2022

People were so pissed when Xenoblade Chronicles 3 got a date as soon as it did, while Splatoon 3, announced way earlier, was given a window of "Summer 2022". Now, while technically still the summer, fans are even more outraged it got pushed back further. 

I'm unsure why, though; what's wrong with the current iteration (Splatoon 2)? Hmm

I might be wrong but doesn't Splatoon have Splatfests that only run up until a certain point in the games lifecycle, and after that just stop happening? It could also be that people are excited to get new things to earn since I suspect many players have got everything there is to get in S2, and if the Splatfests did stop then that means there's nothing new or different happening so the game starts feeling stale or at a dead end.


RE: Splatoon (Series) | Splatoon 3 Announced - ShiraNoMai - Apr 29th, 2022

That's true. I tend to forget most of Splatoon's experience is multiplayer/live service.

Maybe this'll be the time I really get into Splatoon while it's hot.

RE: Splatoon (Series) | Splatoon 3 Announced - Moonface - Apr 30th, 2022

Yeah, I hate missing the boat on these games too. I feel like by the time I've picked up a copy of Splatoon the bulk of the online stuff has passed and it's too late to join and get the full experience. I don't know if the games have them but it'd be nice if they had bots so you can still play matches even if the servers are empty or whatever. I know there's the single player stuff but that isn't the same content as the multiplayer.


RE: Splatoon (Series) - ShiraNoMai - Sep 10th, 2022

Might actually be picking this up. Anyone else down to get it and play together?
