I work for UPS and had to watch 44 (about 20 copies a piece i'd wager from the size) cases from Nintendo of America with "DO NOT SELL TILL MAY 29TH" emblazoned on them pass by me yesterday. I coulda just walked out with all of them... I coulda been playing Splatoon right now.

Oh well, at least that single game I got to play was fun. The Splattershot Jr. build is way more threatening then the rollers.

Ronnie posted:Lets all discuss how great it will be to play this game. To be fair the actual game will be more than a one hour window where basically every person who even has a casual interest in the game is rushing to get in at once. Like yea obviously fix this poo poo Nintendo but considering the last test was pretty smooth I'm not exactly having squid based panic attacks. That said, fix this poo poo Nintendo I want to ink people in the face.

On the other hand, what I've found really really interesting about Splatoon during the testfires is that I'm actually seeing a lot of Japanese usernames. Not used to seeing them in shooters on consoles.Commissar Ken posted:I work for UPS and had to watch 44 (about 20 copies a piece i'd wager from the size) cases from Nintendo of America with "DO NOT SELL TILL MAY 29TH" emblazoned on them pass by me yesterday.

Not used to seeing them in shooters on consoles. Its uniqueness probably helps a lot since there's also a ton of platformer and other non-shooter elements to it. I was actually talking to a friend how interesting it is from a game design perspective, since it offers equal or more agency to people who are bad at shooters than those who are good. Plus shooters and western games have been getting more popular in Japan than it's been in the past.

If anyone's tired of Squid Jump, the tutorial is still playable from the weapon select screen.

Plus shooters and western games have been getting more popular in Japan than it's been in the past. Very much this. Aside of the aspect of shooting the ground rather than enemies (though there's a lot of that in single player), there's generally a great deal more platforming and verticality involved, and little considerations to be made - such as grates - that would never be an issue in a more 'realistic' shooter game.

Got in a lobby on my own somehow. I swear that timer in the top left keeps resetting itself. The two matches I DID get into were fun. Motion controls are definitely going to take some getting used to.

Well this sure as hell did not work! Last time it worked so well it surprised me, no lag whatsoever and constant matches, now it can't connect at all. Can't say I'm not disappointed. Hopefully this won't work as badly for the game proper, because otherwise that's one new IP that won't go anywhere, and that's just sad.

Can't say I'm not disappointed. Lots of games ha e bad launch days. It's pretty much the norm. I'd go so far to say if your multiplayer is playable on launch day you aren't going g to make it, or you horribly over purchased servers. After the first week or two a game ends up with about half as many people on at any given time even if the overall player base is on the rise.
