Thx, but the real fixed would be like last time:

Lmao. I think I participated in only one stress test but I kept up with the threads. Nintendo was on something with those late starts.

 

[kuroneko0509]

yup just announced @ koshien stream. can see the jp viewers are really excited

 

[pitt_norton]

Niiiiceee.. . loved the first tesfire a couple of year ago. Special times.

Just got to figure out how to afford a pro controller... I though the game played alot more solid with it when I played it in Tokyo.

 

[Cartho]

My body is ready.

 

[Lambtron]

yup just announced @ koshien stream. can see the jp viewers are really excited

Same.

 

[ScientificPizza]

If launch units weren't already sold out they are now

 

[Dark Ninja]

The music is so good.

 

[EDarkness]

If launch units weren't already sold out they are now

Heh, heh. Man, talk about calculated. They announced this thing WAY in advance. Gonna be fun times coming.

 

[The Giant]

What are the aussie times for this?

 

[oti]

yup just announced @ koshien stream. can see the jp viewers are really excited

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[spekkeh]

Nice. These are good ways to keep people locked into your system.
And I might get Splatoon 2 as well, even if it looks awfully similar to 1.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Also some AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA tbf

 

[Forkball]

Dat launch window.

I think the original testfires were instrumental in the success of the first game, so I'm glad they're doing it again.

Yesss!

Can't wait to dabble with the dualies

 

[Geg]

Switch launch purchase justified

 

[oatmeal]

Awesome. Very smart.

 

[kuroneko0509]

since some might confused with when daylight saving times or british summer time kicks in, here's japan time so you can convert to your own timezone for crosschecking

 

[Magnet_Man]

Fuuuuuuuuuuck.

 

[oti]

KITAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

 

[Compsiox]

Another reason to own the Switch. Works for me

 

[Octavianus]

Aw yes

 

[Experimenter]

Yay, finally my chance to try Splatoon out.

 

[MouldyK]

Edited...and 12-1pm sounds better for Sunday!

Also, 4am-5am for Saturday "Night's" one aswell.

 

[Jintor]

What are the aussie times for this?

AEST = Japan times + 2 hours
WAST = Japan times - 1 hour

 

[SinCityAssassin]

A Time To Kill.

 

[J@hranimo]

Switch launch purchase justified

 

[Lucifon]

Awesome news! Switch preorder redeemed!

 

[Cuburt]

Hell yes!

Time to teach rollernoobs a valuable lesson.


GAAAAAAH I just thought, what if Nintendo does this for ARMS as well????

 

[Aostia]

Wow, that could make me want to pick a Switch early

Pretty sure that is the plan

 

[Spiritreaver]

Guess I know how I'm spending my birthday this year.

 

[m4st4]

Oh my god the Switch hype is real, March is going to be insane.

Edit: Guess I'll have to buy the Pro controller before March 24.

 

[J@hranimo]

Yeah see this is me. I wasn't planning on getting one until Splatoon 2 releases. Dammit! lol

 

[Crayolan]

Played for the first time in over a year today and remembered why I love this game. This timing. :<

I wonder if any of my friends will have a Switch at launch.

 

[m4st4]

Yeah see this is me. I wasn't planning on getting one until Splatoon 2 releases. Dammit! lol

Luckily, payday is on March 10 so I'll make it, but damn it!

Nintendo is making all the right marketing moves ever since that downer of a conference (I'm talking everything from hands-on preview events to TV-commercials, Superbowl etc.)

 

[foxuzamaki]

Yeah see this is me. I wasn't planning on getting one until Splatoon 2 releases. Dammit! lol

Same exact situation

 

[AdanVC]

Awesome!!! Hope this means the game will come out sooner than expected!

Do they want to sell millions of splatoon 2?

Because this is how they sell millions of splatoon 2

The very first global test they did when the original Splatoon was about to come out was what sold me on the game. I get instantly hooked and it's been since then one of my most played games on Wii U and one of my fave games in years, so yeah, this global test thing truly works.

[Jashobeam]

missed out on Splatoon 1 but jumping all in for the sequel, this is also a good chance to test out how good Nintendo servers are for online gaming, and if they have improved at all from Wii U, considering they are going to start charging for it now.

 

[?oe?oe]

Do I have to now buy a Switch earlier to play a test fire, hahaha. Damn good shit.

 

[Kinsei]

Awesome! I can't wait to try out the splat dualies.

 

[SalvaPot]

ARMS when?

Loved the first testfire, can't wait!

The main issue with the Splatoon 1 was the P2P of 8 players with heavy data traffic. People playing on Wifi and/or with bad bandwidth caused lags for other people.

I doubt that the requirement of 8 players having good internet connections with low latency will change.

 

[mugwhump]

Dammit, I don't think I can afford a switch by then ;_;
