Confession: every time I won in Splatoon, literally every single time after the launch weekend and realized the vibe of the game, I did a little skanking routine when I won, to the beat of the victory theme. This may sound like a Retarded_Clown_ post but it's real.

They didn't even include the scores in the splatfest. But the absolute worst is that the losing music is such an absolute bummer compared to the win music.

what do you mean? it showed kills for both normal splats and special weapons plus the ink percent and #p for each side

It didn't show the score in the leaderboard, it just showed names, and I think the Ice Cream Power (or Cake Power, if you're a criminal, is just a splatfest mechanic).

I think he means the score that determines how much exp you get. I think that was just set to 0 so you didn't level up in the demo

Yeah the chat doesn't seem very useful, but I guess you can modify your gear and maybe view miiverse pictures so it's worth downloading anyways.

The way the schedule works is detailed here but I dunno if it's the real one. I'm jumping on salmon run as soon as it opens up though.

Nah it's a rotating mode for some reason. But it looks like the weapons set you have to use changes each cycle

im glad salmon run is limited time because i wouldnt care enough about a horde mode to play it much if it were always an option but only having limited access to it will trick my small brain into playing it whenever i can

I don't know if the Switch has done preloading/prepurchasing yet. I think splatoon 2 is only 3GB though so it shouldn't take too long to download.
