Splatoon, due out in the first half of 2015, players take charge of a inkgun-armed cartoon child that can turn into a squid. The four-on-four multiplayer game has players fighting not to take out the opposing team, but to coat as much of the map as possible with their color ink. The colorful concept doesn't just make the shooter more kid friendly, it also delivers a slew of interesting concepts to an aging genre. With a push of the button you can morph into a squid, swimming quickly through your team's ink along the ground and walls. Swimming in the ink doesn't just vastly increase your speed, it also refills your ink tank. If you hit the opposing team's ink you won't be able to proceed. Even walking through the enemy's ink can be problematic, it's like walking through molasses.

If enough people are going to get it, I plan to get this game when it is released. Looks fun.. But need to know more details and what other modes or other stuff is available to play.
Splatoon confirms character customization, weapon customization, solo modes, offline and online gameplay, harder map modes in development, full sized retail game is their goal, basic chat features through voice chat unlikely.
exactly, i don't want 12yo having interest in my mom to ruin my gaming experience i duno why they judge the game badly just because of the lack of voice chat
inb4 we need communication to plan strategy blablabla
I read at reddit and a few news blog's comment, for the most part, I think everyone is fine with not having one.
i was only able to play one match, btw is the sniper having the scope? not sure if can perform 360noscope in the game
I've played quite a lot from the start till the end. Almost for the whole one hour, except the first 5 minutes where the server didn't work. You don't have the scope to begin with, this are all basic guns since it's just a testing demo.
Tried the game again on 7pm till 8. Still fun to play and I think I might get addicted to it when it is out. Can't wait for the full game now. Don't think i'll participate at 3am next lol. Hopefully there is more test run announced maybe.

Actually i still dunno how to take screenshot
Be in the position you wanna screenshot in the game and click the home button and go to Miiverse. Post the screenshot there and later go to your Miiverse browser or something and save them.
You can do it on the New 3DS XL as well. Sadly not enough processing power for old 3DS.
Anyone starting to play this? Good? Review on Amazon is pretty positive. Thinking of getting this, but XenobladeX is sucking too much time out of me
Played the test fire.. It's all good. Fun to play if you are into online multiplayer. Can be those short brust kinda game. Since it only requires 3-5 minutes for each round.
The single player look alright too base on streamers, but the main focus is of course gonna be the turf war online battles. Should take most of your time as well, since there is gonna be weapon and gear upgrades to get better in the game
