In order to use motion controls in Nintendo’s latest hit Splatoon, players normally have to be playing with the Wii U GamePad. This would typically mean that only one person gets to play with the enhanced control scheme. But what if two local co-op players wanted to play Splatoon using motion controls?
Well good news — Nintendo slyly leaked a solution to the problem! Youtuber NintenDaan has showcased the hidden option to allow for just that (as long you own a Wii U Pro Controller, Wiimote, and a few rubber bands). While this method can only be used in Battle Dojo mode, take a look at the video below to try out this new playstyle!

Ummm mynintendonews already mentioned this?
Did we? I checked through all the Splatoon posts in the past day (since the vid has been up) and haven’t found anything!
I’m not saying you’re wrong — I’m just new and may have missed it! Got a link?
Yes, I remember reading a similar article a few days ago. Good article, though, nonetheless.
Thanks for the tip! Made a few changes — one of the reasons I love this community.
Sorry if I sounded rude – I was just confused
Don’t sweat it — constructive criticism is always positive! The article is better because of it, thanks to you!
Oh wait, look at that — found it! Thanks for the tip, gonna edit it now!
Wii remote & Nunchuck would’ve made sense for controls and you can still have the gamepad on the side for a map and whatnot.
I don’t know, you’d have to aim with the pointer. It’d be really weird.
no you dont aim with the pointer DOUSHBAG the wii motion plus acts as a gyro you plonker
I’m still pretty interested in the game… It looks cool.
It’s a really good game! You should get it. Although it’s not perfect its really good. Ya feel me?
