Oh huh, is this an official comic? The way it keeps dropping game mechanics is pretty cheesy (but in a charming way). :3:

It's an official comic published in CoroCoro, which is a comic magazine with a lot of popular kid's tie-ins.

There are like 12 pages missing from that comic, would it have killed you to post the source.

I linked everything from the imgur album I found it in, if you have the source, post it.

Google fu says its a 1shot in the May issue of some publication called Coro Coro. Scans are therefore :warez: and also probably :nsfw:

My only disappointment with this game is that it came out too late to be in Smash Bros. Though DLC could rectify that.

They're adding Splatoon Mii costumes to Smash, that's probably as far as they're gonna go.

I think so, yeah, but I'm sure they'll be available a regular DLC pretty soon after launch

Some other retailer (it might even be Gamestop/EB) is selling Splatoon shirts and/or giving them away with preorders, too.

Totally forgot about Mii costumes. That is the perfect way for Nintendo to "cheat" their way into adding characters without having to create anything completely unique. Still, an Inkling would have been a fun addition.

Its still possible, there's a link outfit and link still is in smash after all. They likely just put out the inkling costume because its easy enough to make that in time with the game's release.

I just realized this game doesn't seem to use the Miis. I'm kind of shocked there won't be a way to play as them. Every game should have Miis and Nintendo should have amiibo Mii costumes.

All of the scrolls have been leaked, and most of them are just goofy world-building. However, in the last 5 you unlock, [BIG-rear end SPOILERS, SERIOUSLY] it reveals that rising water levels wiped out all land-dwelling creatures on Earth long ago, which you probably already figured out from the Wii U scroll. The last two reveal that Judd is the last living Earth mammal who was cryogenically frozen from current day. loving Nintendo, goddamn.

Technically that belongs to Platinum. EDIT: I'm wrong, The Wonderful 101 is a Nintendo trademark.

What I'm hearing here is that we should stop clamoring for a Super Mario Sunshine crossover and start calling for a Wind Waker crossover

I remember I once saw a documentary show about how nature might reclaim the Earth if humans went extinct. One of their theories was that octopi might be the next creatures to evolve human-level sentence and take control of the world. I wonder if one of the devs saw the same thing.
