I think there may be a notion that this game is a hot topic due to the day by day morbid creation of Splatoon threads in this forum.

Hanging out in videogame forums may end up causing a distortion of reality in some.



Nintendo is selling their IPs to Microsoft and this is true because:

Love that Soylent Green reference in the poll.

And I do like myself some calamari sometimes, especially at our favorite spanish restaurant. But no, no promotion like that in sight anywhere.



Hype? The only place I've noticed any hype for it is on this forum...
Maybe your idea could work in Japan.

Other than the Frozen Yogurt in Canada, I don't think so..

I really don't think it would resonate that high with most people. Using a more popular franchise like monster hunter dishes would be far better.

They could definitely do a promotion like this in Japan. Would do great for the game and bring fans of it to the restaurant. Win-win.

The hype isn't as big as you think. If we weren't trolling ming sites we'd not know a thing about it.

I was bored and I thought it would be a good idea XD. Imagine a restaurant that's near a game store in Japan, and while people wait for their copy, the restaurant offers a free drink if you show your copy and order something calamari or octopi related. The restaurant gets clients, the costumers get a free drink and a funny story, and Nintendo gets free advertisement (press loves those kind of funny stories).



You know it deserves the GOTY.
