Nintendo Japan has released a very short video showcasing two of the ink guns in the forthcoming Splatoon. First up we have the Splashooter which has an extremely high rate of fire for an ink gun and the second one is the .52 Gallon ink gun which covers more area per shot. Splatoon is out this May, so not long to go.
Thanks, Khalidmr93
A couple is right. But I’m beginning to see how awesome the detail in customization is. You can practically hear the difference.
Can’t wait for this
If Yoshi’s Wooly World doesn’t come out before this I’m pretty much done with Nintendo. I won’t be in any rush to buy their games. I haven’t bought a game since Smash Bros. No games til May is simply unacceptable.
It’s looking like it’s gonna happen man I mean they haven’t talked about it since E3
Can’t blame you, but I can wait. Making a game takes time, and making a good game takes even more time.
I might eventually get Rainbow Curse to fill the gap. Splatoon will be awesome.
Totally agree. I prefer to wait and have a amazing game (like all the Nintendo ones) that like having my game ASAP like AC UNITY for exemple, and have a unfinished game.
atleast you can get rainbow curse for some god awful reason. KatRC comes in Q3 for EU
I agree with you. No games for the first five months of the year is pretty bad. Nobody will buy the Wii U if it doesn’t have a constant stream of games. Wii U game droughts are ridiculous, and the worst it’s ever been on any Nintendo console.
Kirby literally just came out
ikr and Mario Party 10 is coming this month people just like to bash nintendo in this website for no reason i bet they don’t even have a Wii U
You’d rather buy yoshi’s whooly world over splatoon!?!
I really hoped it would come out sooner also, but i can’t complain cause I have such a big catalog of games to finish such as the Metroid prime trilogy and various e-shop games.
Super excited!!!
things are shaping up… might be fast or famine, but there are half a dozen very (potentially?) solid games that will come out for Wii U this year
Splatoon
Zelda
Xenoblade
Star Fox
Splatoon
Yoshi’s Wooly World
Devil’s Third
And then the possibility of that Robot game they showed at last year’s E3
That is enough for me frankly, but i know some of the more hardcore gamers need more, and that is understandable
You said splatoon twice, but it has quite the potential, so I think I can see where you’re coming from.
haha… I swore I didn’t do that, but hey whatever… that would still make it a half dozen so that’s cool.. point is, plenty of games
This game must have a Samus Aran Weapon DLC!
amiibo
I’ll happily play this over this The Order $18.86 in any day of the week lol
Looking good. Can’t wait.
I love the look of this game!
Dont remember the last time i bought a shooter if ever XD
No voice chat equals fail. I may rent it
Do you really want to hear people screaming in their mics while playing a game like this?
No, I don’t want to hear people in my ear. But there is also no communication of any kind. No orders, or commands to give to online teamates. So there will be no strategy in these matches unless you are telepathic. Every match will be a chaotic free-for-all with no direction. A simple list of commands could have made the online multiplayer so much more fun. I mean it would be nice to ask a teammate to create a diversion while I sneak up from the other side right? Nope, not gonna happen. I have no idea why Nintendo does not want you to communicate with fellow online players. It’s mind boggling.
This game does look amazing, and I will defiantly buy it day one. I just don’t understand Nintendo’s brain dead decision making on certain aspects of the game…
THIS. SO MUCH THIS.
As soon as I heard there was not going to be any way to communicate in-game with teammates, my attention towards this game just dropped. You can’t make a game where teamwork is paramount yet have no way to communicate so you and your teammates can play effectively. I’m not saying voice chat is necessary, because it isn’t. Even if it only had a command list with simple phrases you could use to tell a teammate to “follow me” or “guard this area” or give them alerts like “enemies incoming” or “prepare to ambush” akin to Left 4 Dead, that’s better than nothing.
Honestly, Nintendo lately… For every step forward they take, they take two leaps backwards.
Yeah, I agree, I don’t think voice chat is absolutely necessary when inputting commands works just as well, or even better. I still think this game is gonna knock my socks off though, and who knows? Maybe they have yet to announce something like that? We can only hope.
Same here. I’m not compeletly bummed by that, but I do find it a bit ridiculous.
I do hear lots of people say things like “great! I won’t have to listen to little kids swearing!” but that’s not the point. If you don’t want voicechat, just turn it off. What most people don’t seem to get is that their needs to be some sort of communication to really make it a team battle.
…Um you do realize that is untrue right? The whole no communication this was a mistranslation. You can communicate with friends I believe, just not random people. Or something like that. Either way there is communication buddy.
I know it’s possible with freinds, but what about just normal online?
I don’t think it’s been confirmed either way from what I’m seeing. Its one of those things that they haven’t clarified implicitly just yet, but I don’t really see the issue considering the nature of the game is about painting territory rather than killing opponents. That and the handy dandy map that shows color and ally situations kinda renders most issue moot.
This is something people have been clambering for from Nintendo, a new LP, and I don’t quite get how this feature, who’s presence and quality have yet to be considered essential to game play, merits a buy or not for a new IP. ditching it just because of that just tells Nintendo to ignore requests for new IPs. However, dissatisfied customers, whom they say they are going to be listening to more, tell them to add this and other features because they want to continue making money from them.
