Splatoon is right around the corner! Fans all over the globe are in a fervor to hop online and shoot up the world with a custom Inkling avatar and their various ink shooters.
But what’s this? It appears as though an image has been discovered online, showcasing a number of unknown ink weapons! If you take a quick gander, you’ll see that the famous Nintendo Zapper is set to make an appearance in two forms — in the original dark grey 1985 style and in the bright orange 1989 style! We’ll have you know, Nintendo updated the color to orange in 1989 to reduce the Zapper’s appearance of a real gun. Isn’t Nintendo trivia just fabulous?
Splatoon releases tomorrow, May 29th, in North America and Europe. Read our review here!
Thanks to those who sent this in.


It would be an awesome throwback and edition!
Where is FLUDD from Super Mario Sunshine?!
OMG!!! They should totally add that!!
It would be so fucking overpowered.
Not as broken as COD weapons or as OP as Little Mac.
You’re joking, right?
Little Mac.. OP? Have you even played Smash4? Your comments get dumber by the day.
Yes and he’s way too fucking fast and powerful for a mere boxer standing on spot for an entire game. Plus the fucker never flinches at all and his KO meter is BS which makes him the most broken character in the series and thanks to that fucker, he ruined the game for me. I rather play the lagfest Brawl with tripping than dealing with that OP asshole.
And I own both versions you idiot.
you must’ve been used to playing Brawl on easy mode. wtf Little Mac is’nt that hard to deal with, fucking noob.
If you want to beat Little Mac. Play as Kirby. Simple as that. He DOMINATES Little Mac. So does Yoshi and Peach (if you know how to use her correctly).
Basically, any character that has a kick-ass air game will murder any Little Mac player.
Other great characters are Ness, Palutena, Pikachu, Mewtwo, Samus. These characters either have great backthrows or good projectiles to keep Little Mac at bay. In Pikachu’s case, he has a good backthrow AND good projectile to stop Little Mac in his tracks.
Attack from the air so his counter will miss and if he blocks with his shield always land behind him so he can’t hit you with any moves. If he corners you on the side of the stage, just grab him and throw him backwards. If you can get him off the stage all you have to do is hit him once and he’s dead with no chance of recovery. If he is counter-happy every time he is thrown off stage, hit him from BEHIND and his counter will backfire ad send him shooting in the opposite direction.
Dude, Little Mac isn’t OP. Get him in the air and he’s practically a volleyball, yours for the spiking.
FLUDD cleans paint
keep mario OUT EVERY SOME FUCKING IP’S LIKE SERIOUSLY. Fucking Mario fanboys so damn annoying.
OUT OF SOME*
All we want is FLUDD. It’s not like we’re demanding Mario himself to be added.
lol kiddy gusn lol.
If you are on drug, you must notify everyone.
BECAUSE REAL GUNS THAT FIRE BULLETS WOULD BE BETTER IN A INK BASED GAME
GO BACK TO COD YOU FUCKING IDIOT
Better than your typical mature rated shooter that has been milked dry.
Who’s TK???
The new dude from the US.
If he/she is from the US you should be careful Sickr, Sasori will be jealous!
……………………
Make me comment mod PLZ. :)
……………..
I was just gonna ask that aha i think we need a picture 😉
I came home from work today hoping splatoon came early but…….
Nope 😢
Damn you amazon!!!
I heard that ,surprisingly, not many people got the game early. Maybe I can hope that I got the amiibos early tho. :P
Its a policy amazon need to change 😉
Won’t have any time to play it tomorow either most likely 😣
SO HYPED
If it’s coming out tomorrow why does this leak really matter?
IT’S ON TOMORROW!!! SOMEBODY’S GETTING THEIR ASS INKED UP BY YOUR’S TRULY 😉
Not if I ink you up first!!!
Oh that sounds like fighting words to me……BRING IT!!!!
I WILL!!! I’m using the Splatter Shot. I’ll beat you even if you use the Paint Roller.
Sounds like a typical Friday night 😉
Lmao
In Splatoon, no one can hear you…without voice chat. XP It’s gonna get dull pretty soon.
Nah, unless you have extreme issues with not hearing whiny 10-year old voices every few seconds like every other shooter in existence. There’s a reason I never use my mic when playing shooters.
Most people are dicks anyway.
I’m not defending the exclusion, but some of us don’t give a rats ass about voice chat. But, who am I kidding, I see your comments bitching and moaning about voice chat on every Splatoon article. Boo-hoo.
All I want like everyone else is options. Nintendo dropped the ball in this, new 3DS and everything else regarding online and market.
TK sucks dick
this is what nintenfags want to play? An ink game that has ink octopussies in it? That’s what u people are … octopussie faggots. Ohhh I want to be inked all over! Ink me! Ink me! You sick sons of bitches. Bunch of My Little Pony bitches and losers wanting to buy this game day one not knowing the glory of PC gaming and REAL VIDEO GAMES. FUCK YOSELVES!
Obvious troll. You came all the way here to try to make us mad, but nope, not working.
*sigh* It’s because of children like you that Splatoon is missing out on voice chat. Now get the hell off our site & go play Call of Duty or Destiny or whatever the hell it is you play in the shooter genre!
I honestly don’t know why trols even try here
Just go suck a freakin’🍌 and put it in a 👃 and 🔏
am I the only one not being excited by that game? don’t get me wrong I don’t say the game is rubbish and won’t give a try but I am not that bother about it.
Same here
Not as excited as I use to be when it was first announced, so you’re not alone.
Let’s see the super scope six and the original duck hunt gun from the 70s and the Japanese zapper the revolver
What time do the 3ds themes come out at in the UK?
What I want to know is, will they make the signature *ptang* sound when you fire them? … because I will be sorely disappointed if they don’t.
Squid girl is so hot. I want to shoot her with my sperm.
Wow, this game is doing everything right.
Almost everything. Needs more match customization.
It’s just the start. I’m sure there will be even MORE weapons than what we already know of and have seen from this “leak.”
See you guys in the splatterzone in about 11 hours!!
This is awesome, I was always saying that they should make the Ray Gun item into a Zapper in Smash Bros, its awesome they added both color variations of it.
As for the game itself, I played the demo and I cant say I am that keen on it unless there is an option to change the camera aiming from having to move the game pad to just using the analogue stick.
I like the paintbrush. Needs FLUDD from Sunshine. Oh & the Gust Bellows from Skyward Sword! A paintbrush with the Master Sword design would also be cool. But none of those things will matter to me if I can’t partake in long matches.
