Splatoon on the Wii U
9.14/10 from 33 user ratings

Welcome to the official discussion thread for Splatoon on the Wii U!

To start, please add this game to your log, add it to your collection (if applicable), and (when you are ready) rate it using the link above!
Splatoon is Nintendo's unique twist on the shooter genre. Shoot ink on both your friends and environments to win the match! Players can turn into squids and 'swim' through their team's ink color. Players can also use their team's ink color to slow down enemy movement. It's ink or be inked in this chaotic marriage of third person shooters, de Blob, and good ole fashioned paintball.

I can't help you; its been MONTHS since I've touched it.

I don't play with friends in friends-only matches much as I play much earlier than the night owls here but ranked mode is awesome! There's three other modes within it man! It's a bit more For Glory while the Turf War is For Fun. I'll always choose to jump into someone's game if a friend is online though.

I'd love to organize time to play with you guys but my hours are so weird. I do have friends I play with for both rank and turf but we haven't managed to get a full team for Splatoon organized.

Finally finished the end boss - the very last section caused me many deaths.
But then I realized I was just standing too close, which didn't give me enough time to react to the squid bombs. Once I moved further back, it was pretty straightforward. Great end boss.

Was there an update this weekend?

@achhibbar
Yeah I loved the end boss. Super satisfying fight. Longer then expected, too!

New Splatfest next weekend!!! Art vs Science in the NA… so hard to choose.

Behind the scenes from soundtrack recording sessions.



Seeing The Squid Sisters in human form sure is something!

That's so cool! I was hoping to see something like this since the music in Splatoon is so unique.

@Octorockin
Yeah, I would have loved to see half an hour of this, with some interview material and cool information tidbits spliced in. Would be sweet if Nintendo dressed these people up in squid outfits and arranged a live performance at some point, IMO. A Squid Sisters show during the next E3 FTW!

@r_hjort

Maybe even a Squid Sister driven Nintendo Direct! Man, that behind the scenes video is super neat. There's a lot of talent that goes into those songs.

So is the Splatoon community here dead now? lol No mention of Hammerhead Bridge being released (that final level we knew about!) and the fact that Splatfest is happening now! I will concede that it's still early for many of us… only 6AM on the west coast…

Come on people! TEAM SCIENCE!

Goddamn work is killing my gaming! I want to be playing Splatoon but can't find time or energy to do it. I would check out Hammerhead Bridge, but I'm going to be busy for the rest of the day.

@r_hjort

It's going to be live for all of Splatfest (in NA) but I bet it's the same globally too. Find five minutes man!!

@DrFinkelstein
I might be able to do some Splatfesting tomorrow... Gonna try!
09/19/15, 16:18   
@r_hjort

Uh, Splatfest is today only though!

@VofEscaflowne
Isn't it like it always is? Over here in Europe it's always been from 7 pm saturday evening to 7 pm sunday evening?
09/19/15, 16:21   
@r_hjort

Oh, I just assumed you meant in NA. I didn't know Europe had it around the same time as us.

@VofEscaflowne
Well, I'm not sure about that either to be honest with you. I haven't kept up with the Splatfests and stuff since I haven't played Splatoon for ages.
09/19/15, 16:26   
OH MAN. Super Mario Maker is evil! It takes and takes and takes all my time!

Time to toss Splatoon back into the old Wii U!
