I guess the other point is that while I’m excited for Splatoon 3 it’s going to be a tremendous challenge to push the series forward noticeably on the same hardware.
I believe they’re up for the challenge and have exciting ideas I couldn’t possibly think of or implement, however there’s some things we fans want from the series that they cannot possibly deliver because of hardware limitations.
Maybe the successor to Switch will be just as popular as current gen Switch in Japan and Splatoon 4 will be the game that clears nine million copies in Japan and competes for Japan’s best selling game of all time title.
