Eurogamer.pt has posted an article about the Splatoon Direct, but also they said something very interesting.
According to them, Nintendo Portugal is saying that the ND will have a very, very interesting announcement for those who own a Wii U.

I don't know where they got this information, but they quoted Nintendo Portugal.
I'll believe them because last time they said the ND would bring something special, the ND ended up showing NSMB 2 for 3DS.

Fingers crossed!

That's interesting. The only thing I can think of would be a MK8-like free game promotion with Splatoon.

A demo would also be great!

Yeah, I have 3 stars on that Grand Prix now on my first try today. Completely random and BS AI.

Now I have lost my 3 stars chance at Rainbow Road 64 twice, the easiest course in that cup... There's zero consistency in the AI of this game.

There isn't that much randomness against CPUs from my experience.

I had some trouble to get 3 stars everywhere in 200cc the day it came out, but that was because I used my super heavy combo.

After that, I didn't lose a single race against CPUs besides Baby Park.

An AI racer once beat all 11 other highly skilled players in a 200cc WW on a rather technical track in Ribbon Road. Don't really know how or why, it just happened. Shoulda saved the replay but I somehow didn't realize how epic a thing that was at the time. :L

It's pretty broken. I've seen CPUs disapear out of the blue to pop up later down the road a couple of times.

They never seem to break in corners either yet have no problem going through them. And then other times they crash into walls at the most stupid locations.

I've even seem them magically spawn items going from triple mushrooms to magical star without picking up an item box lol. I often get hit by red shells even though I got my item box before them but it's still spinning.

In Versus mode 200CC seems a lot fairer for some reason.

Here's to tons of new maps. Several new online modes. A demo after the direct. And finally announcement of the free game deal.


3 outta 4 aint bad...

:P

Overall, that was a pretty good direct.

I'll most likely get Splatoon at launch.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

1) There were no new maps.

2) There are no new modes at launch.

This game should be delayed till August.

...I have some choice words for you that are better left unsaid ;)

If you don't like the release strategy, don't buy at launch, but all this extra content is free so your whining seems a bit silly.

EDIT: According to the Direct, there will be at least 8 maps added post launch, 5 of which we have seen nothing from
