I was neutral towards the game at first, but I've really warmed up to it to the point that I can't wait to see more! I looks like a lot of crazy fun. My only hope is that it supports local multiplayer. Looks great and fresh, though!


Yeah I hated it at first but the more I saw of it at Nintendo Treehouse the more I liked it.


A lot of the games shown I didn't feel that impressed by until I saw more on the Treehouse and remembered that Nintendo likes to make a poor first impression, then wow us when the game actually comes out (ala 3D World). Mario Maker was something I was sure would be eShop only and dismissed... until more details came out and "Mario Paint" was mentioned. I was instantly sold.

In an IGN interview the directors said they were looking to put a single player mode and local multiplayer.



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

I'm buying this, favorite game from E3 if you ask me.


Yep, of all the games at E3, Splatoon is notable because:

1. It was an honest to god new announcement.

2. It showed actual gameplay.

3. It even had a playable demo!

4. The gameplay was fun and fresh.

If there were any other games at E3 this year that satisfied these criteria, I'd love to know about them.

It really surprises me, quite pleasantly, that a game like Splatoon is the game of the show. I'm of the same opinion. Last game from the last conference, a humble game with big ideas, and I'm in love.



Nice thread!

Not overly sure about the game but will certainly keep an eye on it



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

If I remember correctly, they mentioned a local 2-player mode where one persons on the TV and ones on the gamepad.

Did they? I had heard they were thinking of a SP campaign and different modes, but not local multiplayer like that. The main issue I see, though, is how they would handle the map and jumping to join teammates



Game looks great will defiantly buy it when it drops!

^I also heard that there is a local multiplayer. One player uses the TV while the other person uses the gamepad.



           Survivor Millennial vs Gen X!!

ok so reggie just confirmed that there are more than one modes so good!
