Rip Splatoon.. such a good game

ItsMetaKnight · Sep 26, 2018

Rip any reason for paid online.

I assume it stands for Radical Ink Playing? If games are "dead" without getting new content perspectives, 99,9% of all games are dead on arrival, right?

It's great that they've supported Splatoon this far, however I think they should definitely be trying to engage the community more and keep that going instead of just dropping all support like they did with Splatoon 1 on Wii U. Splatfests should still be around after the two years of promised support is up, and they should add new in-game events and whatnot to keep people playing. Or, of course, they could come out with a brand new Splatoon of some kind.

Yeah, I'm finding it odd that they're stopping this support now, after the paid online has been released.

At least with Splatoon 1, it was because they had a new console and Splatoon 2 around the corner. With Splat2n, unless there's a Splatoon 3 somewhere, the Switch still has many years of life and the Splatoon community is not going anywhere. Hoping for more Splatoon in the future.

Splatoon 1 was only around 2 years before the sequel. There is a very good chance Splatoon 3 is coming out this summer which would explain halting updates. But then again there isn't a new console coming out next summer...

I felt that the Octo Expansion DLC was sort of the 'last hurrah' of the game, im not surprised Nintendo is not going to make more maps but could at least add more cosmetics (Like some on Wii U and still isnt ported over)

I bet there is a Splatoon 3 coming out eventually but the issue is if its more of the same, I wont be getting it, I feel the main reason 2 was popular as nobody bought 1 (Maybe a hidden port?!?)

Now this is just a thought but maybe Nintendo is going to make Splatoon games every 2 years kind of like sports games are made every year except for this will be every 2 years a little Nintendo thing.

Pretty ironic that they launch online to play games like Spla2oon and then stop adding new content. shouldn't some of this money go into said free updates XD

Sounds like it, oh well, less reason for people to be sad about ban.

Meh. Nothing of value lost IMO. I don’t like splatoon, they just feel like the characters Nintendo wants to insert into all of their other multiplayer games. At least those sploon update videos wont waste time in nintendo directs anymore.

ehh, they were a guest character in mk8 alongside link, Isabell, and Villager and are in smash bros. which has pretty much every Nintendo character under the sun. it doesn't seem like there shoehorning them into much of anything

Well, I didn’t like how MK8 had non-Mario characters in it to begin with. But then inserting more? And why would they stick in Splatoon characters into Smash when literally NOBODY asked for them, but then NOT include highly requested characters like Banjo and Kazooie (Microsoft said they’d be okay with it), Geno from Super Mario RPG (technically belonging to Square Enix, but they could at least try to work out an agreement), and I hate to say it because it’s mostly a meme, but Waluigi is also a highly requested character. I just think if they’re going to add characters, they should add ones that people actually ask for.

ehh, there were quite a few people who have asked for inkling before. the characters you listed have been around longer and therefore have had more time to be requested meaning they seem much more prominent

They said this was the final stage, doesn't mean there won't be more content.

Darth Meteos · Sep 27, 2018

Finally they can get to work on Splatoon 3.

switchbricker · Sep 27, 2018

leave it to nintendo to launch an online service and then drop support for their flagship title. cant wait for Splatoon 3 with nothing changed or added substantially
