Why is it when everyone mentions the Splatoon characters being in Smash Bros. they always just call them "the inkling" and post the girl, or refer to the character as "her" or "she".
>>
how's her foot game?
>>
>>320567115
mostly this?
>>
>>320566974
Because no one plays a male inkling.
>>
>>320566974
the gal inklings are more popular than the boys
>>
they'd probably just let you choose both genders like robin or corn
>>
>>320567937
why

>>320567115

I fucking hate you people.

>>320568314
The girl inkling design is just flat out better than the boy.

Because they're fucking cute and sexy you dingus.

Dat hip sway.

The male Inkling design looks retarded.
>>
>>320566974
Even Miyamoto says the girl is pretty much the main character.
The devs added boys as an afterthough.

Also. They are popular for their design.

>>320567115
Splatoon prefers legs/tentacles. especially in japan.

>the tentacle ponytail disappears when you put on a hat

That was a huge glaring design flaw for me and it made sure that I never rolled a male Inkling.
>>
>>320567115
pretty good

>>320566974
>people thought inklings had a chance
corn is easy to add, an inkling would require adding in a whole new inking mechanic unless people just wanted a half assed gun user there was no way inklings could be in smash 4

>>320568930
Yeah, the last couple DLC characters weren't really the more cartoonish characters, they were more humanoid anime-esque so they'd be more easy to incorporate in a short amount of time.
>>
>>320568930
>>320568930
Inklings would certainly be the better choice over FE but the 3DS limits and wanting to advertise Fates for the west and for paid DLC reasons probably got FE another spot.

From a recent interview with the Splatoon devs

>Could the series ever work on the 3DS? Do you have any plans or hopes to make a handheld version perhaps similar to what Nintendo did with Super Smash Bros?

>Amano: With the splattering of ink, which is definitely key to the game, this is something we spent a lot of time on getting the feel and the look of exactly like we wanted. I think that's something that would be quite difficult to realize on the 3DS considering its limitations.

A splatoon rhythm / dance game could certainly work.
Or a rhythm heaven crossover
>>
>>320570763
Oh I fully expect Callie and Marie to start getting plastered on a ton of shit going forward. They're even getting an IRL concert next month.
>>
>>320569775
which is exactly my point, the only way for them to work is to remove inking, and if you remove it whats the point of having an inkling in the game. Thats why I thought people were retarded inklings just can not work till smash 5

>>320570980
If they wanted. Nintendo could easily make much more money of Splatoon.
Cartoon / anime, spin-off games and even more merch

>>320571605
>Cartoon/anime
>spin-off games

They do have official inkling plushies in Japan, but I have strong feelings one of these will become a reality.
>>
>>320571605
I think an OVA would be much more likely than a full blown anime, but I'd take either. The world could be a ton of fun to explore.

Following Agent 3 during both her octo mission and simply an inkling's daily life of friends / turf war / skating / fashoin etc.
