How many children actually play this? I've only seen adults playing. And they're mostly manchildren and female weeaboos.
>>322994506
Lots?
What does it matter though, you can't see, hear or even chat with them anyway
The only way is to check their Miiverse or whatever and why would you ever do that?
Just play the game, it's pretty funHave to get back into it myself, haven't played for a good 2 months
woomy.
>>322994506
>can't find any negative aspects to game
>has to ask how many kids play it, in order to criticize
Splatoon is fresh and fun, how about you try it for yourself?
>>322995735
Sonyggers don't play games.
>>322995539
is this the new splatoon meme you guys are trying to force to keep it relevant?
>>322995851
No. This is.
I think there's a lot of kids playing this. It isn't hard to see how easy it is to win without trying.If you manage to carry your team full of ten year olds
>>322995791
>>322995246
LMFAO epic bro
I love Splatoon OP.
>mfw not weaboo
>mfw Military autist
>mfw half european
>mfw I am autistic over video games but not anime
You'd be what demographic can attract what OP.
>>322996067
This just never gets old
>>322995791
>10 yo playing as a girl
I thought only Japanese boys did that.
>>322995246
>>322996153
Seriously what kind of reaction was he expecting? I can just picture him sitting there going "Oh man I'm gonna troll all the Nintendrones It's gonna be epic!!"
Me and my friends play it, 21 yo. Its good, give it a go.
my 11 year old brother plays it
>>322994506
>source: my ass
It's fun
All you have to do is remember that your team members might be 12 years old. Fucking annoying to get killed by the same guy like 7 times though.
>>322997897
Yeah, being too competitive can hurt you sometimes
>lose game
>my score is three times the second guy on my time
>would be higher than the enemy team if not for the winning points
Can't carry in a team based game
>>322995539
thanks doc
someone post the spongebob doodle quotes
Turns out both children and adults play the game, what a suprise.Almost as if the colorscheme and artstyle appeal to a younger audience, and the higher rank gameplay appeals to more serious players.
This shit is the best thing Nintendo has produced in years.
>>322994506
the majority of the playerbase are 12 yearold japs
>source
I'm playing with a bunch of squiddly line kids retards right now
>favorite shooter since UT2k4
Spla2oon better have a goddamn bombing run mode
>>322994506
>I've only seen adults playing
Well, nintendrones have to defend this shit.
>>322997897
Honestly that's kind of why I'm glad there isn't any voice chat. I can picture myself just raging over him for doing something stupid. Which will just lead both of us to feel bad. Turf War goes by so fast anyways there's really no point of getting mad if something goes wrong.
>>322999830
I'm glad there's no voice chat. Honestly the Come On! and Booyah! options are good enough , but I wish there was a Go There!, but then again that might me too much. I really don't want to talk to any little kids while playing. Kinda sad that there are shitty parents out there that are oblivious to all the fucking stupid shit their kids are doing.
>>322999830
>>323000412
I can only imagine the things that'll be said. Then again, I remember some of the thing that need to be said to most of these shitters.
>>323000412
>>323000656
It's funny. Most people here hate voice chat because of random 12 year olds going "fuck you faggot" and talking about the things he did to my mom. But I feel Nintendo did the lack of voice to protect kids from hearing adults swear.
Either way the game does a great job showing everything you need without voice chat. Wonder how Spla2n is going to work.
> I've only seen adults playing.
How did you "see" them? Did you track down individual players and peered into their houses while they were playing? Or did you just assume it wasn't kids?
>>322996010
I wonder what it smells like haha
>>323000952
Nothing makes me want to frisbee my gamepad out the window like Splatoon. The things I would say to these 8 year old Japs would traumatize them for life.
>>323003425
They'd probably just say urusai Baka gaijin
>>322994506
A good number
You can tell by how many players go past the enemy base to gun down foes rather than actually setting the rainmaker down on the base and sealing their loss
>>322996010
sauce?
>>323003425
That's why I tend to stay with Turf War. Gives me the feeling of compatition but hardly any of the rage that comes about it.
>>323004818
but then you start to take even Turf War seriously
and then you realize that the matches are either totally one-sided or decided by something stupid that happens in the last 30 seconds
and then you realize that Moray Towers will be bullshit forever
>>322995791
>mfw ten year olds expose themselves to abuse in online games nonstop now
Kinda sad, weird and funny at the same time.
Its an abstract feel.
>>323004986
Naw I never really take it seriously. Hence why even after playing since launch I still just play for fun.
>>323008557
>Not a flip book of turning from a boy to a squid to into the ink
Could have been great.
Please do not actually hug an octoling
So I guess we can say goodbye to splatfests since they said updates would stop in January.
>>323013418
No Octolings either, and with how poorly it sold, the wiiu being abandoned and the NX being a phone platform, the chances of spla2n are next to nil
>>323013603
Oh hey it's this guy again.
>>322994506
Splatoon is to videogames what my little pony is to cartoons.
>>323015031
Felt good getting her badge in the arcadefor free.
>>323013603
Splatoon sold ridiculously well given the circumstances. Nintendo knows that. We'll get a Splatoon 2 on NX without a doubt.
>>323015465
Not to mention all its marketing tie-ins.
>>322994506
Children dont play Nintendo, they play CoD.
Nintendo needs to realise their pandering to a demographic that wants to be seen as mature.
>>323013603
>>323015465
Adding to this, it's sold 2.42 million copies and is the 5th best selling game on the console. A quarter of Wii U owners own it. For a new IP that's incredible.

>>322996038
>Throwing sprinklers at their own spawn
>Not knowing that the rollers can flick
>A sudden abundance of chargers
Yeah, there is definitely more kids, that or people were gone so long they forgot what to do. Not surprising since Christmas and all.
>>323015695
>2 million is a quarter
i guess that's why they decided to cut their losses
and looking at the /vg/ thread, the game is dead as shit
>>323015695
Wasn't that 2.42 mil after 4 months?
I wonder what its up to now, it recently passed 1.1 million in Japan
>>323015890
As of September but those are the newest figures. It's likely higher given xmas and black friday.
>still no clothing line based on the shit in-game
Nintendo is never going to properly utilize any IP they create, are they?
>>323017912
There's advertisements for the in-game clothing brands now?
>>323018202
as part of the advertisement for the game they released a bunch of fake adverts for the various brands found in game, barring real world brands like amiibo and unexpected brands like IkaMusume
>>323018358
Can't believe I hadn't seen these until now, considering how huge the game's gotten.
>>322994506
Target demographics IS children but that has failed
Children of today don't play videogames but watch LPs
So instead the people who it flocks in are nostalgiacs and manchildren
>>323019234
Sagakeen is a recent partnership with a city in japan, known for it's squid, the ones i posted were released before the game came out, as a way to show off the brands you can buy in game
there was also some conventions and events where attendees could play the game and participate in some strange one-off activities, a yogurt team up in canada and a biweekly comic in famitsu magazine.
>>323020269
I seem to have forgotten the memes

>>322995735
>>has to ask how many kids play it
that's actually a question nintendo should ask.
personally, wii aside (popular christmas/birthday etc. gift when it was released), i've never seen actual kids owning a wiiu, just people in their late 30s and above.
12-14 year-old either have a playstation or low-end pc they use to play csgo.
maybe it's different in japan or usa.
anyway the amount of splatoon softporn and porn kinda shows the demographic playing it
>>322994506
How do you know that? There's no voice chat.
Do you stalk little kids to see what they buy, wait in front of the splatoon stand all day or what?
>easiest game to cosplay
>no sexy non-butterface cosplays so far
>>323023016
>>322995791
damn
I can assure you the majority of NA and Europe players are obese pedophile manchildren who whack it daily to fanart of those two squid sisters that look like clowns. The so-called "children" demographic are primarily from Japan given how gook infested the game is.
Oh, and you drones still have yet to prove or fully explain what makes the gameplay so "deep and competitive" for autists, or even how it's better than, say, Mario Kart or Smash.
>>322996523
It's just Aussies shitting up /v/ again, nothing new here.
