Why I’m Skepitcal About Splatoon 3, Former Nintendo Employee Agrees
When it comes to Splatoon, I wouldn’t say I’ve loved the franchise. It’s been a good amount of fun for a few hours, but my lack of skills makes playing online a bit of a crapshoot. I’m glad the series exists, though, because it has been one of the better new Nintendo IPs in a long time. A third release in the franchise is enough to prove that. But watching pre-launch videos from Nintendo regarding Splatoon 3 has me a…

The Nintendo Switch is one of the most popular systems right now. And Nintendo is bringing Smash Bros Switch to E3 this year and releasing the game this year too. So what else do you need? Does Nintendo actually need anything else? I think a lot of people would just be happy if they showed a lot of Smash Bros and nothing else. But…Nintendo won’t be happy with just Smash Bros this E3. Oh no. And while Smash will get…

Read MoreSplatoon 2 Review
Not many games entice me to be online often like Splatoon 2 when it comes to Nintendo products. Even with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, I generally spend way more time offline with friends locally, than online with strangers! I suck at first person shooters, and I generally play adventure title, almost exclusively. About there is something unique about Splatoon that makes me come back again and again, and I'm not sure I can put my finger on one reason why. Whether it's the online modes, Salmon Run, or the single player campaign, there is always something to do in ...

Let’s see what questions…

Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me #4: Splat Attack!
Have you played Splatoon? If not, you’re really missing out. With Splatoon, Nintendo has created a wonderful, Wii U defining game. Here are my thoughts about Splatoon and why I love it! Most Nintendo games are all about the single player and if there’s an online feature, its more of an afterthought or a nice addition. Splatoon, on the other hand, is totally different. The single player in Splatoon is the afterthought. The story, in my opinion, is not…
