the game is really fun.

the turf war mode kills camping and i always hated it to run around in a map and just search somebody. sometimes u run around for like minutes and its just frustating (exsecially if you get killed by a camper after that).
But splatoon gives you a task even if you dont see any other player to fight. Thats just amazing. they really improved most of the bad things in online shooters.

Just not my style of game honestly. Sadly, my Wii U is still unopened in my closet. I'll get there one day.

Splatoon looks like it gets old after awhile. Don't really see the game surviving long.

It looks fun but Wii U is still too expensive.

I'd say Splatoon is part of the reason to buy a Wii U..

There are also a lot of good games for the Wii U besides Splatoon

One of the best shooters I've ever played. The premise, the movement, the maps, the gameplay its all so perfect together. And on top of it it feels so natural. By the end I'm moving around like I've been a inkling my whole life. Its really something special. And I wouldn't have been able to experience it without Wii U, so I'm glad for it and every other exclusive on Wii U.

Not if you buy it refurbished from Nintendo's online store! You also get 1 year warranty for it!

They have two bundles under 250$ right now:

1. Super Mario 3D World bundle with Nintendo land is 225$

2. Nintendo Land Bundle for $200

Both systems are the Wii U Deluxe version as well!

Nah son, Xenoblade Chronicles: X is the REASON to get a Wii U.

Fixed.

I agree with this.
