I don't care much for either (okay I'd be on board with water slides if I had never found out what happens with swimming pool water) but I guess it's water slides because I am a squid

Edit: Capybaras would also like water slides better

It's very hot right now so I would rather be on a water slide than a rollercoaster. My opinion might change if it cools down, though. That's why its a hard question

Actually wouldn't the inklings have to use ink slides or die horribly?

The splatfest themes seem to be based on stuff that inklings wouldn't know much about aside from pop and rock music, if that one battle track is a legit song in-universe. Dogs have long since drowned, and Judd's the only cat they know of. And I doubt they know what instant ramen is because that involves handling deadly water.

If I could be on either this month it would absolutely be a waterslide because it's 999 degrees.

Waterparks are more fun but Roller Coasters have Roller Coaster Tycoon which lets you fling patrons into lava.

Tough call.

Water slides were in RCT1 (at least, dunno about later) and were one of the better things to splat your guests with because the dinghies easily left the slide and they exploded on impact.

Team Dog, don't make the same mistake twice and vote for the more popular team. Superior matchmaking awaits you.

After giving it some serious thought, I think water slides are more fun for me, but I've been on more roller coasters. I'm going to pick the more fun option.

And if a slip 'n' slide on a hill counts then it's really no contest.

Well I just learned that if you shoot a Bubbler with the L-3 Nozzlenose fast enough it was push them straight backwards at a relative speed. I even push them off towers and into pits. They also don't seem to know what to do once I push them out of their shoot range.

I gotta toss my hat towards Team Waterslides because I am a big baby that hates rollercoasters.

But, yeah, I'm super not passionate about this Splatfest's teams. Ah well, can't have every one be gold.

e: vvv Coming from the North, I can confirm waterslides in the winter are fun as gently caress until the owner comes by and chases you and your friends out for trespassing.

I am not complaining about the choices Nintendo has made. I like Coasters vs. Water Slides. Nobody wants to passionately argue either way about it, though, and that is great.

How are ANY of you not voting roller coasters? :psyduck:

Water slides only go one way: down. Roller coasters can have hills and loops and poo poo, and they can be longer. One roller coaster is like 10 water slides.


They should've made this Splatfest East Coast vs West Coast. Hell I'd take North vs South over these lame choices.

You're right, because the time you spend waiting in line for a roller coaster can usually be spent going down a water slide 10 times :v:
