Splatoon is amazing. I love the 'waggle'. Do you kids say that any more? Waggle? I love the 'waggle'. Would be interested in another shooter on the switch. I hope another shooter drops before metroid.

splatoon doesn't use waggle controls, that's a very specific thing from the early wii days

A devoted inkling dress-up spinoff is guaranteed.

I need a style savvy oh so badly

I guess this means that it most likely broke 1 mil WW by now.

Hardware numbers are also looking good!

Probably! I'm still waiting for NA numbers.

The real secret sauce for Splatoon sales is that if a household has multiple Switch owners, they'll be incentivized to buy multiple copies if they're fans of the game and want to play together.

Well there ya go. Splatoon 3 is guaranteed.

Same for ARMS 2.

Really nice, I'll get it as soon as I get a copy of the first on the cheap and play through its story mode.

As it turns out this is actually the biggest launch during a system's first year on the market. For reference MH3G on the 3DS was previously the biggest launch. MH3G launched while the 3DS already had 3.2 million systems on the market(including those sold at the launch) and thus had around 16% attachment rate with it's 521K debut:

01./00. [3DS] Monster Hunter 3G # <ACT> (Capcom) {2011.12.10} (¥5.800) - 521.959 / NEW

3DS | 3.234.299

01./00. [NSW] Splatoon 2 # <ACT> (Nintendo) {2017.07.21} (¥5.980) - 648.085 / NEW

NSW | 1.196.986

Waggle is when you have to wag to do things that don't correspond to real motion input. "Fake" motion controls. Splatoon 2 doesn't do that.
