City hub yessssss. I'll probably customize outfits more than I play the actual game though. Outfits look too good.

 

[Mexen]

Aww yisss



Very exited for this.

Where are you off to?

 

[Jeff Vader]

On one of the inklings sweaters I swear it said irem on it.

 

[Neiteio]

This game is looking AAA as fuck

I love saying that in combination with "new Nintendo IP"

 

[TunaLover]

Well this game really got a big bump graphically, it looks great, also getting NintendoLand vibes from clean light-shadow and texture work.

 

[NHarmonic.]

Ugh i so want to play this...

 

[Sayter]

Looks pretty wonderful. The hub reminds me of Nintendo Land Plaza.

The Mii Plaza should've been done this way in the beginning.

 

[cloudyboy]

this game interested me since last E3 and it is still looking awsome! i really like the designs of the various vendor especially the anemone girl that sell head accessory. Also the hub remind me a bit of the one in modnation racing.

the wait will be painful...

 

[NEO0MJ]

No...not really

Depending on how strong unique the boosts are it could happen.

 

[Yonafunu]

Hype is at maximum right now.

 

[Kouriozan]

This game was already a day one buy, now I wanted it yesterday.

 

[foxuzamaki]

day fucking 1

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

This game is GLORIOUS, day fucking 1.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

I love it.

Will probably get it at launch.

 

[Micken]

This game will be soooooo good... Preordered it, so... Day one.

 

[Tenki]

I really hope they announce some Splatoon amiibo. I want to put a inkling in my life

 

[TheJoRu]

Absolutely GORGEOUS. The hub looks really lively and charming.

 

[Muzicfreq]

It only keeps getting better

The wait will be semi painful

 

[disco]

Very JSR.. groovy!

 

[hughesta]

This game looks absolutely incredible. Can't wait to just run around the hub world listening to that amazing soundtrack.

 

[Francokid1]

This is gonna be day 1 for me. The customization and multi-player items look so good.

 

[MagnesD3]

Game is looking better and better.

Im really hoping single player is as much of a full experience as the multiplayer is though since the single player trailer from before looked pretty dope.

 

[Rootbeer]

I thought no game could compete with Xenoblade Chronicles X in my heart for most anticipated of 2015 but this just looks BETTER and BETTER all the time!!!

It is going to be a huge huge hit.

GIVE US SPLATOON AMIIBOS

 

[Drencrom]

Can you make and play as a male character in this game?

 

[turk128]

I hope when they mean equipment they don't mean the clothing. Having stats attached to clothing means that only a small percent of them will be viable for high level play, making the playerbase look the same.

I can see them going TF2 style with the stats on items where it balances out. The play style will dictate the choices.

That said, I'd love to see peeps with similar play style adapting an unofficial uniform, forming cliques/gangs/squads/clubs.

 

[SatoAilDarko]

High Quality Trailer fron Gamexplain
http://youtu.be/u6O6akRDwJg

Looks really, really good. Much better than when I was streaming. Love the personality of the shopkeepers.

Man I'm going to be playing so much to unlock all the customization items and weapons.

Edit:

Can you make and play as a male character in this game?

The male Inklings are the ones with their tentacles in a top knot.

Trinnen said each player (character model? random for each new character you create?) gets different boosts from different combinations of clothing.

 

[Coolwhip]

This will be an instant classic.

 

[Captain Star]

Splatoon keeps looking better with each update.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Really sucks this won't sell well. Destined for cult classic status.

 

[Hazu]

I hope this game ends up being compatible with Amiibo. Having a different outfit for each character would be so awesome.

 

[Piers]

Man, the design in this game is stellar.

Not really feeling it. Looks like a 2001 THQ title imo. (Design-wise, not technically)
The gameplay itself looks great otherwise.

 

[thefit]

I may have to pass. I really don't like the art style of the characters, they look like a 90's "extreme" cartoon or characters
from wii shovelware. Also, having tentacles on their heads/hair is really off putting its stuff of nightmares to me.

 

[thestopsign]

Really sucks this won't sell well. Destined for cult classic status.

I think if it is marketed well to the right demographics and gets good reviews it could have a slight chance of being a breakout hit. Other than that, I expect a mid level hit (in terms of the Wii U), mostly fueled by the Nintendo faithful.

 

[Orbis Tabula]

I'm gonna be all over this game.

 

[Astral/H3X]

I'd far prefer that the clothes were completely stat agnostic, and then have slots for stats.

 

[thefro]

I totally missed in the first image that there's a "Level" stat... so I'm assuming you get both XP & money from playing MP matches.

The stars seem to be the rarity of the equipment... the one with 2 stars has 2 ??? slots while the 1 star ones only have 1 ?? slot.

 

[marc^o^]

This game looks:
- so good
- so cool

Probably the coolest Nintendo game of these last years.

 

[McBradders]

Militaristic Crabs.

 

[Mupod]

I love online hubs like that, they were part of why I liked PSO and Monster Hunter games so much.

 

[Ushojax]

This game has a great Dreamcast vibe, the plaza looked straight out of JSR.

 

[CrunchyFrog]

Hyped, so ready for this game to rock my socks off.

 

[Aostia]

visuals improved a lot, also.
can't wait, really!

 

[Chaos17]

Everytime I see Splatoon and everytime it become more beautiful with new features to discover. /HYPE

 

[Icyflamez96]

I've only been looking at some screenshots of this game. This will be one of the only games that I go on a psuedo media blackout for. It's not that hard really. For some reason I go into splatoon threads looking for info and I get lazy and end up forgetting the things I read, so i'm just going to stop trying now lol.

 

[PadWarrior]

Silly question but what are the controller options? Is motion controls needed?
