Nintendo has provided GamesBeat with a statement concerning this month’s NPD report.

According to the company, Wii U software sales in the U.S. have risen 10 percent through the first seven months of the year compared to the same period in 2014. That’s largely thanks to Splatoon, which is now sitting at almost 540,000 units sold in the region. As was announced last month, the game has sold close to 1.6 million copies worldwide.

“Much of [Wii U’s software] growth can be attributed to Splatoon, which inked nearly 85,000 total units in its third month to bring its lifetime total to nearly 540,000 total units in the United States alone. As of June 30, the game has sold more than 1.6 million total units around the world.”

Nintendo also shared the following regarding 3DS hardware:

When you start Splatoon a minute before rotation -___-

How we divide the teams will all depend on how many will be joining. Optimally, we would like to have 4v4 but for sure we could have 3v3

Well, on that note...

Since the August Update has been released for some time and we were able to play around in the new modes... surprise, surprise!

We are going to have a Splatoon Tournament on Saturday, August 15 @ 1pm Pacific / 4pm Eastern / 9pm Europe! The mode we will be playing is Turf Wars and if there are a lot of participants, we will host 2 groups.

This will be the first Splatoon Tournament, so be sure to read over the rules, which is found on the OP or the next post!

[Sign Ups]

Splatoon Turf War Rules:

The August Update finally allows for private lobbies, so you know what that means! Splatoon Tournaments!

Basically, like all other events, all you need to do is to sign up with your nickname and be sure to friend the person(s) hosting the event! (They will be shown on the signup sheet). Under normal circumstances, the hoster be Ultrashroomz (NNID: Ultrashroomz)

Depending on the number of participants, there will be either one or two groups. If there are two groups, you will then be designated to one of two groups. BE SURE TO JOIN THE GROUP YOU WERE ASSIGNED TO!

We will be playing Turf Wars, Splat Zones and Tower Control, but will only play one mode for the whole duration of the tournament. No weapons, subweapons, specials, items, and/or skills are banned so use your best build! You can also switch weapons and gear between battles so you aren’t limited to using one weapon only. Teams will be randomly assigned within each group. However, you will play on the same team for 3 matches in a row before the teams are reshuffled.

Score will be determined by earning the most points overall. Since the bonus 300 points will be included for the winning team, be sure to try to ink as much turf as possible to get the bonus points. However, the MVP for the losing team will also be able to earn points as well so try your best! All maps will be used on random
