To celebrate the launch of Splatoon on May 29th, yesterday Nintendo of America hosted the Splatoon Mess Fest in California, inviting some celebrities to get inked in a real life Splatoon-inspired obstacle course. You can check out some pictures of the event in the gallery below, and some additional images here and here. The event looked like a success and as messy as promised. What do you think of the photos?

If they do something like this for XenoCross, I will flip my shit.
In a good way of course.
Well, if they build working Skells then yes.
All we have is a fully operational Gundam in japan
WHY DIDNT THEY LIVESTREAM THIS
Lol. Because the event was for you to get off your ass, get outside and partake in the event. Not watch it on the Internet while lying in bed…haha
*Sniff* That was beautiful ;_;
Why is Nintendo making such a big deal about this game? It doesn’t even look appealing. Even my niece don’t care anything about it. She didn’t even care about playing a demo. To each their own I guess.
She doesn’t care anything about it probably because she doesnt know anything about it. All kids like bright colors and character animations. It’s one thing you can rely on.
Okay so I guess we should all just listen to your niece now huh? I played the demo, it was kickass man. And like you said, to each their own, and there’s a lot of people who can’t wait for this game, you just gotta live with it.
I’ve been having to just “live with it” for decades. Always seeing people loving horrible (or just plain stupid) games. I’ll give this game the benefit of the doubt for now. But I still have no hope of liking it. I have dozens upon dozens of actual GREAT games in my collection that I never play. For one reason or the other.
Alright, it is bad that as an American I have no idea who the fuck all these people are?
I’ve never heard of any them either. That James guy looks familiar though.
Apparently he was Superman in the 2006 film Superman Return.
So he was in the worst Superman movie? Then would that make him… Worstman? Hahaha… haha… ha… … (I can’t even joke)
You were reaching far with that one weren’t you XD
Yep, kinda… XD
Lol well I’ll admit, it made me smile a bit so you got that.
>>>The worst Superman movie? Not even close, the worst is Superman 3>>>
He was in Superman but I think he played Louis’s bf/husband or whatever (not superman). He did play as cyclops in the older Xmen movies which is prolly where everyone remembers him from.
Well in that case that’s why I don’t remember him then. I remember Cyclops, but because he always had his glasses I never cared for the actor behind the character. Good to know though.
Oh god… A nikon 4Ds for making photos like this…. What a shame…
They really should add this to their amusement park that they are considering.
Ya mother fuckers on California so damn luck compared to the east coast ya got better comic cons and e3 and ya mother phucker got splatoon and tupac represented ya im done ranting
You have the Nintendo Store.
Nuff said, you won by a landslide.
(SQUINT EYES) Touche salesman who name god
Lol man what I would give to have a Nintendo Store here in Chicago.
(I probably wouldn’t give up anything, but I would go constantly to the store)
Wow. Nintendo is in desperation mode.
