Loli squid

Advertising and forced perception. It's not even a good game.

Simple, it didn't

Deep moral choices like kid or squid

Nintendo made a new IP and actually advertised it.

It's a fresh take on TPS.
Also squidlolis and squidshotas

>>323091823
Actual marketing
A new IP
Wii U had few games at it's release
Game's concept is pretty unique
appeals to pedophiles

I don't get it either. Squids look fantastic when drawn in 2D, but as soon as you go 3D they look fucking nasty. Really hoping to get Splatoon 2 on the NX when they update the models and make them look like not shit.

Its a fun, simple, and unique new IP that appeals to all ages on a console with a small library of decent games. Plus it has a pretty cool semi-90's aesthetic and its from fucking Nintendo what did you expect.

By actually betting a fun, competitive game. It's marketed like a shooter but honestly it's somewhere in between a TPS and a fighting game in terms of the dynamics of play, like the fact that spacing and close quarter mind games matter a lot. It's not a perfect game, though. I don't think Nintendo fully appreciates what they made here, either.
>>
I like it because it's actually a fun game.

>>323093651
And? It's still good. The inklings, the octarians, the store clerks, Inkopolis, the splatfest Inkopolis... It's fucking perfect.

It was something new, a shooter that had colors and was more complex than mere "kill the enemy". A fresh breeze of air in a genre that got fucking stale by everyone degrading itself to cowadoody to get their sales numbers
And nintendo advertised one it for once.
Also, the game is pretty gud and doesnt milk its player with paid dlc shit, but that doesnt matter much at this day and age

Japs have a fairly subtle lag advantage the majority of the time, but it can make all the difference in the world at S and above. No matter how shitty the player is, in a straight firefight they'll kill me instantaneously as their bullets catch up on my end. I'll often duck behind cover, escape, or think I've killed them before I hear everything hit me all at once and explode. Chargers and certain specials are especially heinous.

Nintendo has heard all the complaints about map choice, voice chat and more.
Whether or not they address them, and how they even would, is what will determine if this series can be elevated to godlike status and stand alongside gay-ass eSports scene.

For as good as it is, without proper online features it's still going to be considered a laughing stock if anyone tries to call it "competitive".

Okay so, stage and mode rotations. What else amiibos are pretty much a non issue because they only have cosmetics, the minimap on the lower screen isn't an issue either due to the size of the maps a quick glance tells you where to go so you don't miss a beat.

Not that fag/girl, but $60 for a multiplayer focused shooter is bullshit. Especially when you can get comparable/better games in the same genre on Steam for $5.

Nintendo seriously need to drop their policy of keeping their first party games full price, because even on release Splatoon should never have been more than $40 for what it is.
>>
>>323103537
>and splatoon barely scraped that together in the years since it came out
It hasn't even been a year yet and it's a new IP on a console with a low install base.
Also compared to the exclusives on a competitor's system that's about the norm even for an established series.
>>
>>323103868
>Nintendo seriously need to drop their policy of keeping their first party games full price
That has never been a policy anon.
Also after a certain point the retailers control the price and seeing as Nintendo games generally sell steadily regardless of price they're less inclined to drop the price.

Also there's yet to be a steam game to match it.

There is no source because Nintendo is running it on their own servers this time. In other words it'll be up a lot longer than the Wii ones which were hosted on Gamespy servers and went down due to their bankruptcy if I remember right.

So networking, matchmaking, locking you into lobbies where you can't do anything, and an extremely short singleplayer campaign somehow aren't flaws?
Also amiibos give you far more than just cosmetics.
Tower control is easily the shittiest mode that forces everyone onto an extremely small, slow moving space. Rainmaker is superior in every way. But it wouldn't be a problem if you didn't have to wait four hours just to get to play a mode you like.

A quick glance at the minimap at the start does not give you a good indication of your surroundings when you're in the thick of things. How often do you look down at the minimap to notice you're about to get flanked when you're in a firefight?

>>323104245
It's not a matter of hand eye coordination, it's the lack of being able to look in two different directions at the same time, especially in tight situations.

>>323109062
Yeah, because it's not possible to get an understanding of where people are on the map by seeing the ink they lay down or when their exact position shows up on the map via echolocator or when they have ink on them.

You can glean quite a bit about where someone's going or what they're doing by looking at the map. If you're in a dogfight and suddenly you notice a giant ass steak of enemy ink coming up behind you on the map, that's a pretty good indicator that you're about to get a roller shoved up your ass and to get away.

It's also absolutely vital for rainmaker, and even useful for tower control. Also if someone escapes and is attempting to hide or ambush you, but still has some of your ink on them, giving away their location.

Some devs would KILL for a dedicated following as Splatoon has. The reason for its popularity, I'd have to imagine, stems from specifically the design of yhe characters. The inklings are interesting just by design alone, not to mention cute, and the "messy" modern artstyle resonates with people. It manages to be both modern and retro at the same time.
Beyond that, the game plays great and the online is solid. Clearly the devs hit SOME cord while making this game.

Nintendo just makes experiences that nobody else has thought of doing. Not even baiting, there's a pretty wide roster of Nintendo games with pretty unique gameplay. Metroid Prime series, Pikmin series, Splatoon, Smash, Mario Maker, are all games that have no counterpart, at least on any other console.

And when people try to copy the Nintendo formulas, we get shitty, watered-down Zelda clones and FUCKING Sony All-Stars. There's just nobody else to scratch the itch.
