Splatoon Devs Showcase More Character Artwork and New Headgear Shop

The official Japanese Twitter account for Splatoon has revealed a few more tidbits about the intricacies of the upcoming shooter for Wii U. Today, the developer team showcases the Headgear store in their tweet – a counterpart to the weapons store owned by Bukichi the horseshoe crab unveiled earlier this week.

A new character named Anemo, stylised with a clown fish from the sea anemone in her colourful hair, greets players as front of house. Translations suggest that she’s known for selling items such as hats, glasses, headphones and gas masks in the “Okashira-dou” store, with its rather unusual layout as can be seen above. It’s not hard to spot Nemo in the character artwork below, either. Splatoon will be released for Wii U in May 2015.

  1. This is my next Wii U game and it’s not out til May. Where is Yoshi’s Wooly World Nintendo? The first half of the year has a pathetic line up.

      1. I’m sure Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, Mario Maker, Mario vs Donkey Kong and Mario Party 10 will be quality but I don’t care about them. They need more.

        1. Me too,dont care about any of them.Dont know if i will ever get yoshi wooly world as it seems to be for casuals without any difficulty,will wait for reviews to see.

          The only games i m looking forward for wii u are Star fox,zelda,splatoon and xenoblade.

          1. Also forgot and devil’s third too.Looks a lot of fun.(dont care about the graphics like most bitches) and ye i have pc and ps4 and still i think they are overate a lot about the graphics in them.I mean come on Dragon Age is really good but tell me that the graphics are good?They are not!
            The only next gen games so far that impress me in graphics is the new Metal gear and FF15.Witcher was there too but after recent trailers it seems they downgrade it(not that its bad)

            1. Yeah, I’m glad The Order: 1886 and Bloodborne are coming out in the next couple of months otherwise the first half of the year would be a barren wasteland.

  2. Agreed they have enough games supposedly coming out this year that they should have a better more spread out release schedule

    1. Hey I wanna join! Haven’t played shooters in a while mostly RPGs, I need to see if I still got the touch :)

        1. Do you really bookmark and saved all the youtube addresses so you can post on replies?

          You have a lot of free time.I mean you also doing a robo wierd behavior also…only one conclusion you are shy in real life.

          1. Nintendo Elite Commander Quadraxis

            I just have a very good memory and putting on any behavior is as easy as stomping Xbots…

                1. So you didnt ever own an xbox and still hate them so much :D,i owned 2 xbox 360 that god the red ring of death.Was good console but i m sticking on Sony /Nintendo for now but i m thinking of getting an xbox one in the distant future for exlusives i missed and i still dont hate xbox brand as much as you.So what is your story?

                  1. Nintendo Elite Commander Quadraxis

                    My story?…

                    I don’t support and like any realm that wants to violate human rights, spy on you, NSA cooperation and gaming wise, they are the ones that brought the current state of gaming into a sinking hole…

                    Because of them, the term Hardcore was invented, because of them, the Sonyans were partially forced to become graphicwhores to please the ever increasing corrupted imbeciles of today…

                    And because of them is why the Electron Army and Ubisian Armada are corrupted beyond salvation today…

                    1. you do realize that almost all new tv’s have built in cameras right. They watch you while you’re watching them! how creepy.

                    2. Wow just wow.Blame all you want who is at fault.I blame the new generation of gamers and thats what is wrong with gaming.Sony fanboys were always bitching about graphics and the superiority of ps brand since ps1.So you dont have android/ios devices because apple/samsung and all others are saints dont you have anything
                      microsoft related, maybe a pc? NSA can spy all they want they what are you afraid of. (Do you actually believe they watch al people in the world?) They just use the data for terrorists and such.

                      1. Nintendo Elite Commander Quadraxis

                        Your ignorance is astonish considering the human hero Edward Snowden already revealed that the NSA spies on EVERYONE regardless of who you are…

                        And I don’t care whether I’m a terrorist or not, nobody has the right to spy on me unless I say so…

                        If you want to be monitored like some cattle then that’s your problem…

                        And I assume you are American since they rather believe in the words of the idiots in power than the few ones with a brain to question them and present evidence…

                        1. I m not an american i m from Cyprus,seriously to check even the xbox install base what 6 million now will require huge amount of manpower from NSA.Americans are already in downfall with Korean/Chinese and Russia becomming powerful enough.

                          Also they can spy through satellites if they want to spy you so much.Heck they can just infect you smartphone and enable your camera all day long without even noticing.

                          1. Nintendo Elite Commander Quadraxis

                            Official reports are nothing but lies so whatever they have fed the masses over the years are just lies like they always do…

            1. Don’t believe you would be good at this game, So it’ll be easy to rid you, and Stranga is aggronant, so he’ll get cocky and lose.

              By the Way how those Super Smash Bros Stats looking, probably not too good either.

              Here Lies The Challenge…..

          2. I think my views have changed on this game when I saw the recent direct. It’s turning out great. I was a bit worried to be honest due to the lack of content/variety that they had shown so far. I may just pick this up after all! :-)
