Well deserved. Best new FPS in years.


This is sort of a pet peeve of mine, but Splatoon isn't an FPS...

How popular is the shooter genre in Japan? I suspect not very.

You suspect wrong.

Great game! Great numbers!
I'm thinking about the kind of promotion Splatoon creators deserve. This game is a gold mine.

To be fair, Smash Bros. was also on the 3DS. It's pretty fantastic that the Wii U version has sold ~700k over there regardless.

Yeah I suppose 700k is good but it is just such a superior game in my opinion. But again that is just my opinion I know a lot of people just don't see the appeal of smash.
