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!

[Thoughts] Will Tears of the Kingdom have DLC?

  DLC for Tears of the kingdom could happen but I don't think it's likely Source: Author's edit I want to start off by saying I do not think this game needs DLC at all, though it would be welcome. Breath of the Wild had an expansion pass with 3 waves of content. Looking at the contents of that could give us an idea about what a Tears of the Kingdom expansion pass could look like. The first wave (Expansion pass purchase bonus) was available at the games launch and included the following: - 3 new treasure chests This was a very small wave featuring 3 chests of goodies. The biggest thing from this was a Nintendo Switch shirt link could wear. It was a nice little extra to start the game off with but definitely not the defining content of the pass. Moving on, The second wave (DLC pack 1) offered a lot more in terms of content, with it offering these following things: - Trail of the Sword - Master mode - Heroes path mode.  This wave offered many things to test the players skill...

[Thoughts] Dark Chronicle's Fishing Remains Unmatched!

While there are many great fishing mini games, Dark chronicle's still stands tall The main reason the fishing in Dark Chronicle stands out to me is that it transcends being a simple mini game with little purpose. There are many reasons to fish in this game actually. On top of this, the fishing itself is really fun and there are plenty of cool fish you can get in the game. So, with that said, let's go into more detail regarding this games fishing as a whole.  The fishing itself, is very simple and easy to get a grasp of. You start by casting your line into the water, which can pretty much be any body of water in the game. Then when something bites, which is indicated with a exclamation point, you start to reel.  From here your objective is to draw in the fish and ensure that your reel amount doesn't hit the top of the bar. While it is slow, you can pretty much avoid the danger zone completely by periodically tapping the reel button. ...
