Nintendo Japan has confirmed that the next Japanese Splatfest will take place on March 12th and will be themed around the hugely popular Dragon Quest franchise. The theme question is the following: “What is your approach to Dragon Quest games? Do you go All Guns Blazing, or are you Cautious?” Here’s the times for the Japanese Splatfest.

- Japan: March 12th (9AM)
- Europe: March 12th (1AM)
- UK: March 12th (12AM)

- North America (PT): March 11th (4PM)

TEAM HEALIE
Is that the theme everywhere or only Japan? Because you put the dates for all the world.
Just Japan, but those are the times you can join in if you have a Japanese Wii U and a Japanese copy of Splatoon :)
Oh ok. Thanks!
One step closer for the FFVII remake to hit NX…
WAT?
The NX is said to be on par or beyond the PS4/XBox One which have confirmed releases of the game. It was part of the confirmed rumors: http://mynintendonews.com/2016/02/26/potential-leak-that-listed-nx-2016-release-was-right-about-pokemon-codename/
Yeah I know that stuff, but what does it have to do with a dragon quest themed splatfest?
Square Enix owns both Final Fantasy & Dragon Quest.
lol yes I know that too, it just seems kind of far fetched to think this signifies that it has anything to do with the FF7 remake, if anything cloud in smash is the biggest tell. I think this is just simply due to the popularity of dragon quest in Japan, I wish it was just as popular in the US. I’d rather this be a hint to validate the rumor that the DQX MMO will be ported to the NX, but I guess that still doesn’t guarantee we would get it here in the US :(
Either way, GO TEAM HEALIE ^^
Let us hope. If not, no big deal as I’ll just get it on my PS4 instead.
Man I love Dragon Quest. I wish it would just be in the west more
All guns blazing, damn it! I prefer to plan out my attack in the heat of the moment!
My strategy in Splatoon battles depends on the makeup of the opposing team. Dynamo Roller players, I try to stay faaaaaar away from because those things, for some reason, have the range of a Squiffer and can kill in one hit from any part of the ink fling (in other words, OP). If I notice 3 of the 4 opponents use chargers, I’m gonna sneak up on them and get in their faces where they’re almost helpless. Really helps to have at least a slight idea in mind after the 2 second glimpse you get of the rival team.
The next American Splatoon should be Anime(Callie’s team)vs. Cartoons (Marie’s team). The clothing for team cartoon should be pajama bottoms and sneakers with splatfest T-shirt and sleeping masks on the forehead. Team Anime’s clothing would be up to the makers of splatfest.( just a thought but Marie’s hair should be let down)
