I knew someone was going to use an unreleased xbox indie game as an argument, it really shows how weak your argument truly is. Here's what the developer of the game actually said (not that any of you listen to reason anyway):
"EDIT (5/29/2015): As the there is unexpectedly many comments under the video and the number of views almost reached 100.000 I am adding some information about what you just saw. Minute trailer presenting prototype made by Mindware Studios. Czech Republic based studio behind Cold War, Painkiller Overdose and Dreamkiller is not longer exists. The prototype was made within six weeks by 15 people and it was playable. The basic principle is suprisingly similar more to Half Life mod called Day of Defeat then to anything else. You are just playing with paintball guns. The level is divided into sectors. Instead of capturing a flag you need to color all sector in order to capture him. By capturing all sectors to won the game. You have two teams typically with four players. Each player can chose one of four classes (painter, washer, tagger, supplier - i do not remember exact names). While painter's job is to paint as many areas as he can, washer can clean sectors painted by enemies and your team mates (when you are painted by your opponents color, you need to return to your base). Tagger can paint tags like lock tag that lock sector painted by your team, teleport tag and others. Finally supplier brings you color to battle field so you need not to return for ammo to your base. The concept is about five years old but the game itself was never finished . I do not think Nitendo copy cat this. Former game designer of Color Wars."
The game sounds nothing like Splatoon. And The Unfinished Swan? The games are nothing like each other. You guys do realize paint existed before video games, right? Splatoon innovated the shooter genre and many people are still sour over it for some reason. There's more to Splatoon than the fact it uses ink/paint you know.
Ps: there is an ink territory based minigame in Mario Party, which pre-dates both the games you mentioned. OMG Nintendo copied Nintendo!

lol that's a whole lot of dancing around to try to justify your hypocrisy there I must say
" The concept is about five years old but the game itself was never finished"
your whole argument hinges on the concept since it is concepts that determine whether something is generic or not, agree?
it should be clear to anyone with eyes who isn't trying to justify an untenable position that the underlying concept is pretty much the same between both games, therefore, splatoon according to you is a generic copy

I see you didn't read my post as the description of the game sounds nothing like Splatoon (even the developer of the game you mentioned said he doesn't think Nintendo copied the game and that it's more like a mode in Half Life 2). You've also never played Splatoon as you seem to think the ability to hide and move faster in your own ink is just a detail. Without that ability Splatoon wouldn't be half as great. PvZ: GW's online modes are taken straight out from other popular online shooters. It has no originality.
Your argument rests on an UNRELEASED indie game that we only know of from one short trailer on youtube (that had less than 50 views before Splatoon got announced). To suggest Nintendo copied this game is ludicrous.
But hey, keep pretending Splatoon did nothing new for the shooter genre or that it's only succesful because Wii U "has no gamez". Splatoon will be yet another great Nintendo franchise. The sequel should aim for 10 million sales.

now you are clearly readiny my posts and responding so i therefore have to assume that your eyes are in fact working
if your eyes are indeed working then i can only conclude that you are being willfully dishonest if you can try to tell me that the game i posted does not look pretty much the same as splatoon
" the description of the game sounds nothing like Splatoon"
the fact that you have to ignore the actual gameplay video and base your argument off of a description of the game is telling isn't it?
if this is where this discussion is going then its pointless to go further
"Splatoon will be yet another great Nintendo franchise."
so? this is relevant how?
plants vs zombies is a great franchise with a sequal coming out next year... this is also about as relevant as the price of tea in china
