You don't know what are you talking, no its not average game, its something new, great, and fun, and sales and popularity of game proves that, preorders of Splatoon 2 also proves that, also fact that people were saying for Splatoon that's one of best game and best new IP this gen, even before this thread, proves that. Main reason why game has 81 metacritic score is because game had very small amount of content on launch, but only few months after launch game had double of launch content.

And like I wrote, Splatoon 2 will be even much more popular because it will be on platform that will have much higher instal base, Splatoon 2 currently dominating on Japanese pre order list of games.

The only people saying any of that are hardcore nintendo fans. Stop making excuses, the game is strictly average and if it were on a Playstation or Xbox it would've been drowned out by dozens of better titles and no one would even remember it, but since Wii U owners had like 10 games worth playing it's considered great. 

Maybe Splatoon is actually a great, fun, creative new game that you could sink hours and hours into? I mean, the game had to have done something right if it sold almost 5 million units, almost on par with Smash Bros.
