Pick your team and splat it out!

Another Splatfest is upon us. This Special Splatfest, about which fluffy animal is your favourite, was first announced on April 5th on Twitter. As a reminder the choices for this Splatfest are, baby chicks (Shiver), lil bunnies (Frye) and bear cubs (Big Man). As usual, this event runs for two full days (April 20th @ 00:00 - April 22nd @ 23:59), with the tri colour battles starting on the second day.

The tri-colour stage this time is Mahi Mahi Resort. The layout for it seems very similar to the tower control version of the stage, just with more footing where the defenders would spawn. Something interesting about this being a tri colour stage though is the water level drop. It's actually tied to the first ultra signal being secured. We will have to see what it's like for the defenders and attackers as it could be really crucial to get that first signal. There could even be a small chance the defenders want the attackers to get one signal to make it better for themselves.

From looking at polls on Twitter and YouTube, there doesnt seem to be much of a clear winner for votes. Bunnies does seem to have a slight edge though. I feel like it will be the one to come out on top for votes but we will see when the results are announced. 

Make sure to use your conch shells before the Splatfest ends and to scrub your Splatfest t-shirt every now and then for those sweet ability chunks! Happy splatting!

That's it for this blog, stay connected!

[News] New "Hype trailer" for Summer Game Fest goes live

  Summer Game Fest gets new video source : twitter.com/summergamefest Summer Game Fest hosted by Geoff Keighley will be live this Thursday, June 8th as announced a few days ago. The event will be streamed everywhere @  3pm ET / Noon PT / 9pm CEST.  Currently, other than a showing for the recently revealed Mortal Kombat remake, there are no details as to what to expect from the show. However, in a follow up tweet to the video post, Geoff states we will find out soon. In that same reply he also says what you see in the video is not indicative of what we will or won't see. So it serves as just a little mind refresher for some of the new games this year. Link to the video can be found here  SGF video I will be watching this event, but I will have my expectations set very low. Previous summer game fests have not been that interesting so I expect this one to follow suit. Though, with E3 not being a thing anymore offici...

[News] Another game comes to Nintendo Switch Online!

Another game is now available for Nintendo Switch Online members   source:  twitter.com/NintendoAmerica Over on X (Twitter), Nintendo has announced that  another game is coming to Nintendo Switch Online. This includes 1 GBA game. The GBA game included in this update is Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team. The GBA app does require the expansion pass tier so if you have it you can enjoy this game. This game will be available from August 9th. For more information on the game click this link: Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team I haven't played Red Rescue Team, but I have played Blue Rescue Team and loved it. They are essentially the same game just Blue Rescue Team was on the DS. Both aren't coming together as we sadly don't have a DS app. I hope people who have the expansion take the time to try this, as the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games, while a bit repetitive in gameplay, bring a lot more interesting narratives than mainline Pokemon games.   That's it f...

[News] Grand Festival Announced! (Splatoon 3)

Nintendo has just announced the last? Splatfest! source:  x.com/NintendoAUNZ Over on X (Twitter), Nintendo has just posted the details of the last? Splatfest for Splatoon 3. It is a very special Splatfest with it being called the "Grand festival". For this, it seems all three idol groups are against each other taking one option each. The question being asked for this is "Which is the most important to you?". The three options are past (Squid Sisters), present (Off the Hook), or future (Deep Cut). The Splatfest will be available for 72 hours rather than the usual 48. It will start  Friday the 13th of September @ 01:00 am until Monday the 16th of September @ 00:59 am .  We don't know much about the fest itself but it's safe to assume it will have all the same things as a special Splatfest and more. In the trailer, we do get to see the three idol groups in special costumes, as well as hear a new collab song between the three idol groups. However, that's pre...
