NINTENDO: NO BIG NEWS FOR SPLATOON ON JUNE 9, COMPLETE BULLOCKS

"Although we do not normally comment on rumors and speculation, we can confirm that, contrary to the rumors circulating since yesterday, the Japanese weekly magazine in question has not written any article about an announcement related to Splatoon for June 9. With which, it is a baseless rumor."

"Tomorrow, June 1 at 9 am, a new stage "Wahoo World" will be added.
It is a topic amusement park as a date spot among the naughty squids.
In the vicinity of the attraction in the center of the stage, the floor turns, the aisles are connected and broken at regular intervals.
Weekend, Wahoo together!"


"The amusement park "Wahoo World" near Hikara Square is a popular spot full of attractions such as the classic Ferris wheel and a powerful roller coaster.
On holiday, family, friends, everyone Wahoo!
By the way it is only jellyfish who are enjoying attractions, squids seem to be crazy about battle like that."

Octo expansion is released on Thursday!

It was also announced at the Splatoon World Championships that the free content that was planned to cease in July, has been extended to keep rolling out until December.

Is there a competitive scene for splatoon 2 in Ireland?

I really want to play competitively after seeing the championship last night.

I'm not bad but i do make sill mistakes.
A+ rank on everything bar tower control where i have S rank. Testament to my lack of gameplay time.

I'd like to start playing in leagues for any nintendo game tbh. The community feeling always comes across quite genuine and fun.
Is there a scene for it in Ireland.

Any Squads?

I too would love to know this! Not A+ or S just yet but working towards it! I adore Splatoon 2!

Stupid question but does anyone know if you can turn off the Pearl and Marina piece at the start up? It goes on a bit.................

Octo expansion downloading at home

Really need to start finding some people to team with too.

Its even more awkward than teaming up for a destiny raid :D:D

You can not. Best you can do is leave the game running and you'll only get them once or twice a day rather than every 2 hours.

New Albacore Hotel is a brand new stage coming to #Splatoon2! Complete with a rooftop pool, this new battlefield lets Inklings splat it out while enjoying a city view.

Yes. See Splatoon 2 like the original is p2p. With Nintendo charging for online in September, Nintendo could invest some money in dedicated servers. That might weed out these hackers or at least deny them entry.

Just went to play Splatoon 2 and it says cloud save isn't compatible?

Are they for real?

I upgraded my older switch to a different LE and just assumed all my game saves were on the cloud on the online service.

Something to do with your ratings being tied to the save so you can manipulate your rating by playing silly buggers with cloudsave and local save

Its a complete load of ****e to penalise normal players for the sake of people who would manipulate a loop hole that the developers left.

There are plenty ways they could prevent that happening without over complicating it.

I couldn't be arsed starting from scratch again and that not a case of throwing the toys out. It's a case of not investing time in an online game that doesn't have the online support for its player base.

On the plus side, it's more space on the sd card when you delete the game altogether

Oh ****, didn't see that you've lost your save. That sucks.
And it doesn't help that according to prominent Games Journal the daily telegraph there's a switch hardware revision coming next year. You'll have no balls left to kick at this rate...

I love the switch Banjo, that's why I bought a second one , its just that I expected all the saves to have been backed up to the cloud service and not to find out that one of them didn't due to some loop hole with Splatoon. I usually upgrade consoles every year or so anyway so a hardware revision would be a nice treat and something I would welcome.

You might be missing the point I was making which is that it's pretty unfair not to support cloud saves for a game due to the possibility of an exploit, which is something they can remedy.

Its a lazy approach and pretty much gives an instant negative to one of the main USP's of the online service

Yeah I only really played the single player. Didn't spend much time on multiplayer, even though I spent loads on the first one. Never even tried Salmon Run. Must get the DLC myself

So which islands off the coast of Ireland are recognised?

I think Inis Mor must have been sold to the Brits, along with the rights to Father Ted!
