Due to recent news it may seem so. So far Splatoon lacks features that are common for online shooter at this point of the gaming world.
These include:
1. No voice chat in random online matches
2. No bots available in 4 vs 4 matches
3. No online modes other than the one 4 vs 4 match in random online matches*
*We have no info about online matches with friends yet
Compared to other FPS and TPS with online modes made by well known developers, this is pretty barebone. Or are we asking too much from Nintendo? Have we taken for granted that other FPS and TPS offer much more options?
Splatoon is planned to release this May. Will Nintendo have time to revise and add more features? Or will they stick to what they have?

1vs1 were already confirmed in the last Direct (or daily Screenshots, one of them). Also, focusing on 4vs4 doesn't mean there are no other modes. Translations are not 100%.
Smash bros has also no Voice chat. Does that mean it was rushed?

Read the opening post again. Most if not all online shooters at this age have voice chat for randon online matches. Splatoon, being a shooter that also offers online and was first marketed at E3 booths with its online multiplayer, is being bought for its online multiplayer. To lack features that other games in its genre has at this time of the gaming industry could mean its rushed.
@Bold: Smash Bros isn't an online shooter.
