I might have mentioned this earlier, but I'm really digging the streetwear aesthetic they're shooting for in this. It reminds me of a more contemporary take on Jet Set Radio's look, which is great cause I love Jet Set Radio.

I wouldn't be surprised if much of Jet Set Radio's old staff came to Nintendo just prior to Splatoon, considering all of the similarities between the games.

Also, does the official artwork's style look familiar to anyone?

So, my guess is one of the later levels is a trap and then the good Cap'n has to bail us out. Probably by performing a Heroic Sacrifice.

Just in time for the final level, I bet.

60 FPS video of the gun we know and a newly introduced one.

Judging by the meatier sounds of the second gun, but the seemingly slower fire rate, I'm guessing one will be a bog-standard run of the mill rifle, and the other will be a traditional "Strong but Slow" modification to the rifle for those who like the big guns.

Also, an Inking that gets splattered sounds so pitiful.

IIRC the reticle wasn't there in the E3 demo, right? I like how it tells you when you're close enough to hit a wall/squid.

Also, 3-hit kills with the splattershot and 2-hit with the .54 gallon. Seems quick, but then again you have to get up close and take all the jumping and squidding around in consideration.

[up]Yeah the E3 demo had no reticles on screen because you were shooting ink so you knew exactly where you were shooting.

Nintendo's already rendered the Perfect Next Generation Substitute Plushie at Full HD at 60fps, the fur technique is already a proven thing [lol]

The three finest things in life are to splat your enemies, drive them from their turf, and hear their lamentations as their rank falls!
