It looks as though quite a few of you enjoyed the Splatoon demo which went live on Friday. The game has climbed to the top of the Wii U best-sellers chart on Amazon and has probably achieved similar success at other retailers. We haven’t got too long to wait until the game is released as it’s due out on Friday, May 29th.
Thanks, Paidenthusiast and AKA-Link77
Best shooter this gen
It’s really good, but the next Deus Ex installment is just down the road. Let’s wait 2 or 3 years to close the case.
Without voice chat, customization and FUCKING ADS IN THE GAME, we all know who the clear winner is and it’s not COD or BF.
Halo 5?
Microsoft’s milk made bitch? Hell no!
Star Wars Battlefront?
EA and Microsoft are the same poisons of the gaming industry.
Star Fox Wii U?
We also forgot about Mass Effect 4. I’m aware that Bioware is under EA’s roof, but still.
Evole :P
That borefest? You literally had to search in a huge ass world for monsters and people to fight, which is worse than 12 people only multiplayer in COD Ghosts’s Stonehaven map.
Uhhhhhh yeah. You never played it have you.
Muahahahahahahahaha

You’re rehashing a joke about a rehashed franchise. Wow.
sad part is, its true in most times.
lol no.
It deserves. Pretty solid gameplay. I still need to get used to the controls, though.
That was me.
Are you using tilt controls or stick controls?
I gave the motion controls a try, but it was a little awkward going up and down with the gamepad. I’ll try the stick controls next time I have the chance.
I hope in the future Nintendo releases a patch to put the map on the main screen and give us the option to use the pro controller.
Yeah I use the stick controls, it’s just so much easier
It’s not surprise as the demon allowed us to see how good the game is. It succeed.
Typo detected. Or pun intended?
You have to guess…..
The demon? LOL. Splatoon is evil confirmed.
I was referring to nintendo being “the demon” since they get too much hate yet they make a very fun game.
Well, they do make great games. But they also make some pretty bad decisions. I wouldn’t call them a demon for it though. XD Also, the only people that give them too much hate are just dumb fanboys. There’s a difference between criticism and hate. The people that give them “hate” are most likely the same people that laugh at just the sight of Splatoon. They don’t care if it has or doesn’t have voice chat. They still make fun of it. (And all the people that play it of course)
I need this demo to go back up!!!! I’m having withdrawals!!
Be cool if they just ran it for one whole day. Kind of hoping they’ll surprise us, but then again it isn’t too far off from release.
I am guessing they’ll do another session in a week or two.
Your guesses are idiotic, get out of this website.
It’s also twentieth best selling in overall video games which is pretty good.
Well, obviously. It’s got nothing else to compete with right now on the Wii U.
That didn’t seem to boost sales of Kirby or Mario Party.
Both of those are sadly crap. Kirby Canvas Curse sequel should’ve been on 3DS.
MP10 is still selling well.
Morons and newbies only buy that crap and not know the real MP games like the second one.
Bowser randomly comes out and some unlucky person ends up getting all their stars taken. It’s always funny when it happens to someone else and not you. :P
You mean MP2 or that POS MP10?
I was talking about 2. I’ve never played 10 before.
Yeah and don’t bother playing 10
I think of Mario Party 10 as a gambling thing, someone wins by chance and luck.
Which is BS
MP8 is probably the best. Only game with creative maps, in my opinion.
But MP2 has great boards and best mini games yet.
its actually really fun stop being nostalgic and guys the wii u isnt going to have miracles its too late lets just play a game without worrying about its sales
Fun having to drive fucking cars with lesser character roster and stale mini games with Amiibo mode (being a gimped original MP gameplay) as an excuse to sell itself? No thanks. I’ll wait for the BETTER MARIO PARTY games on VC.

Devil’s Third? lol
Almost forgot about that game. lol.
lol Seriously? Then Nintendo or whoever needs to advertise that shit like crazy now.
OMG!!! GUYS IM SORRY BUT SPLATOON WAS FUN AS A MOTHERFUCKER PARTY! im a buy this game day 1! I tried the game at 11:000pm yesterday :_: i need this now! I love u demo u helped me.
I’m curious as to how it plays. Wish I had the chance to try it.
damn it, you missed it! we were waiting for you! i can tell you this it felt fresh and fun as hell
You shouldn’t have sold out on the Wii U. lol But I also don’t blame you. I’m coming within of doing it again.
I’ve got mixed feelings about it. I really don’t like the decisions that Nintendo make, but these games look pretty good.
That too but I can survive without them and play later if I’m still alive. lol
I know. But Star Fox and Zelda are pretty hard to resist. I’ve always said that I’d like to be able to play Nintendo games on other platforms but whenever I say it, I instantly get scolded by Nintendo fans that tell me to purchase Nintendo hardware to play Nintendo’s games. I really like the games but I’m not really a fan of the Wii U itself. It has too many flaws for me to fully enjoy it. Sure, the Gamepad can be nice at times, but I just find it annoying for the most part with its short battery life and the fact that it’s pretty much required to play the system. :/
Star Fox is BORING but Zelda is always great..except for Skyward Sword’s super annoying Fyi tutorial BS that puts Navi’s level of annoyance to shame. lol
You think Star Fox is boring? Lol.
Even though people don’t like it, I like Star Fox Assault more than 64. Not a fan of just flying around in a ship. So yes it’s boring. I agree. If they bring only flying back and no ground play in the new one, I’m skippin it.
I played 64 3D and Command. Didn’t really excite me much but Command’s story was better. I wanted to try Assault since it has third person gameplay and open space battles which sounds fucking amazing and wish future Star Fox to be like that.
Starfox is amazing. I will bitch slap the fuck out of you sir!
It’s boring because I beat it quickly. Zelda on the other hand is a lot longer in length and epic in story.
The gamepad battery is bad but you can get a better battery replacement for it which should last you around 8 hours tops for straight gaming using it. I’ve skipped Nintendo Systems since Gamecube to Wii but I regret that. The Wii U is a great combo with a decent gaming PC. That’s what most of my friends including I have. Great games and the gamepad feature is nice for me.
Yes, but most of the games I would really want to play are not out or are taking forever to release. (Xenoblade, Zelda, Yoshi WW) There are a few I would actually like to get like Hyrule Warriors, Bayonetta 2, Wonderful 101, etc. But even then, I’m already busy enough with the PS4 and I already have a big list of Steam games I want to get. Can’t really be bothered to add any extra systems right now. Though I may consider it next year as I catch up on some games.
So that’s why I haven’t seen you around…that too bad man.
If you own a PC you might see me on Steam though. XD
does a laptop count? I do have a twitter, skype, facebook and others. Do you got to any of them?
*go too* My bad.
Your opinions are irrelevant, child. Get out.
Awesome. I’ll show myself out the door now. :)
>>>Another of my clones have escaped>>>
I’d like some one on one Splatoon love with you so I can splooge my penis ink all over your robotic face.
>>>That’s…lovely…I guess…>>>
It was really fun! I was actually sitting on the fence for Splatoon, but now I’m sure to pick it up day one. Not pre-purchasing digitally since that’s a waste of Wii U’s limited storage space IMO
Buy an external HDD then your problem is solved
It was extremely fun! The game could be so much better though with battle customization, voice chat, and some extra maps and modes. All these things may come later hopefully, but regardless the base game is still fun.
I only could play at 4 in the morning cause I was grounded but dude apart from me being tired it is amazing
I have my shirt off when i said this.
lol.
Hehe
This game makes me horny too boy!!!!
The game is way more fun than I thought it’d be. I was already going to buy it, but now I’m a lot more excited.
I specifically like how each different weapon completely changes how you play, if you really want to make an impact.
This was something I haven’t really felt since the old Star Wars Battlefront games. Which are still my favorite shooters, but who knows. This game might take that place eventually.
It’s super polished and so satisfying to play.. And the squid/ink mechanic is just brilliant for fun gameplay.
They still need to work on the servers a bit though. I had only 2 errors during that last session, so it was a lot better than the first. With hardly any noticeable lag. The music is awesome as well.
Same here bro. The demo only put the exclamation point behind my already confirmed purchase
The first was flawless for me, but on the last test I finally experienced some lag and disconnection errors. I got stuck in this one room that wouldn’t start for like 15 minutes, then it just disconnected.
Nothing out of the ordinary though for an online game, it happens. As long as it isn’t happening all the time, I’m good.
What the fuck…wtf? this cant be happening. :'(
Lol there’s nothing else new out for Wii u I’d hope it would be
I need Splatoon…now.
Good the game is selling. I plan on getting this game.
get next gen get learning curv to 9axis TWIN STICK SHOOTING ISTWO GENS OUT OF DATE
Out of curiosity, does anyone know what the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th best selling Wii U games on amazon are?
If I had to guess, I would say Smash Bros 4 is up there, Mario 3D World, maybe NSMBU, and Wind Waker HD? Oh wait, maybe Mario Kart 8 is in there instead of NSMBU.
Well on the best seller list. The following Wii U game is Smash Bros then is Mario Kart. But they are way down the list from all the other best seller video game items.
Update. 2nd is Smash, 3rd mario kart and 4th is wind waker HD

SPLATOONING was AWWWWWWWWESOME!
Woah! It’s beating Smash Bros!?!? This game is going to be Nintendo’s next huge IP!!! I’m so excited! We should expect Splatoon sequels every body! Hooray!
Current best seller. Smash bros. Been out for along time so I don’t think people will still be trying to get it.
tbh MK8 is also beating smash in terms of sales so is NSMBU
After watching the game play, im satisfied in saying that looks fun as hell. I’m even envious a little of you Wii U owners, for other games as well but gah.
BlackB0ND’s going to be mad as hell.
if this clobber’s his “hate and foolishness” then yes he will be.
Wow im impressed with this game Im definitely buying a wii u
BTW sorry for the jumbled up email @ sickr…. I rushed it. xD

You people are all losers

4. The Witcher 3 : Wild Hunt (PC)

Splatoon, DOES have potential. This game’ll break the bank! ;)

I really enjoyed the game. It hardly had any problems connecting and it has great potential for a new 3rd person shooter. The weapon selection and maps were a bit small , but after all it was a demo. Additionally, I found the charger sniper rifle a bit more challenging to use. Nevertheless, if one practices with it, the power behind the controller can dominate a match with it. Can not wait to get it on May 29 along with the amiibo three pack set.
