Splatoon 2
The squid kids called Inklings are back to splat more ink and claim more turf in this colorful and chaotic 4-on-4 action shooter. For the first time, take Turf War battles on-the-go with the Nintendo Switch system, and use any of the console’s portable play styles for intense local multiplayer1 action. Even team up for new 4-player co-op fun in Salmon Run!
Two years have passed since the original Splatoon game was released, and two years have also passed in Inkopolis! So expect a fresh wave of fashion, not to mention new weapons and gear. Dual wield the new Splat Dualies or stick to mainstays like chargers and rollers, which have been remixed with new strategic possibilities. As always, Turf War is the favored sport among Inklings, but they also dig ranked battles, taking down Octarians in a robust single-player campaign, and battling enemy Salmonids in one dangerous part-time job! No matter which way you play, splat at home or on-the-go with Nintendo Switch. Staying fresh never felt so good.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
But luckily, this is the first experience I've had with the game, so my impressions are overall very positive, if number of playtime hours displayed on my Switch's profile are any indication, which would be 70 hours within just a month getting the game, and I don't see myself taking a break from it any time soon. I'll make a list of pros and cons, starting with the cons:
Cons:
-there really should be more modes than there are. What is there is apparently fun enough to drain 70 hours of my life throughout the course of a single month, but with only four modes (five if you include Salmon Run, which is only available on specific days at specific times), it really does make you wish for more
-the single player campaign is fine, but there really is a lot more potential for it, given that the core gameplay mechanics are so unique. And locating the actual levels in each of the five worlds is irritating
-there are a lot of different loading screens in the community area, whether you walk into a shop, walk into the lobby, walk into the Salmon Run waiting area, or equip new gear. A loading screen pops up for everything
-the game does not do a good job of acclimating new players to the different features, and things you can do. There are some things I just recently found out about (after playing for a month), such as all the different things Murch can do for you, like ordering specific gear items you like that you see players in the community area wearing, or scrubbing slots, or collecting ability chunks, etc. That's probably my fault for not going out of my way to talk to the NPCs, but I still wish there had been a more comprehensive tutorial available somewhere (maybe there is, I just have to go out of my way to find it, I have no idea. Most informative and useful things to know in this game you need to go out of your way to find out about, which is frustrating)
-that freaking "talk show" that comes up EVERY time you turn the game back on, and is completely unskippable, wasting 45 second of my life on information that can me conveyed in three seconds, makes me want to rip my hair out. What the hell was Nintendo thinking when they made that unskippable, and why the hell has there not been an update allowing you to skip it after almost a year since the game was released?
-there isn't an option to save replays of matches. The screenshot button allows you to record up to 30 seconds of footage, but there's no way I can know something awesome is going to happen before I start recording. Really wish they would include a replay feature.
-I am not convinced it is conceivably possible to win a match if one of your team mates dips out last minute. One time I got stuck on a team of three and we made it within four percent of winning, but that is the closest I've ever seen it. Typically it's just a slaughter. It isn't as if their team has an edge over you, and you're simply fighting with the odds stacked against you. Nope. You're just done.
-no split screen competition of coop. I'd love to play it with my wife, but we'd have to get a second Switch and a second copy of the game, which is a shame.
All that being said, this is still some of the most straight up fun I've ever had with a game.
Pros:
-kids that are also squids
-game mechanics are super unique
-matches can be ridiculously tense
-you play as kids, and squids
-there may be a lack of modes, but the sheer amount of mileage you get out of such few modes is amazing
-customization options are expansive, but it never feels as though other players have an unfair advantage over you because they have better gear
-First I'm a kid, then I'm a squid, then I'm a kid, then I'm a squid
-all of the control options feel good, whether I'm using joy cons, my pro controller, or handheld mode
-no lootboxes, no paywalls, no "pay to win" features. You buy the game, you play the game, the end
-so many colors
-there are kids and there are squids and the kids are also squids
Turns out its a region locked game and now I can't play any of the DLC for the game as its incompatible with my real location.
There are several game plays to this particular game including competitive battles (Turf Wars, Clam Blitz, Tower Control, Splat Zones, Rain Maker), cooperative battles (Salmon Runs), and single player mode (story mode). There are a variety of weapons to use that will suit all play types from long range sniper like rifles to short range up close combat brushes - all the weapons are also cartoony in nature and the overall goal is not to kill (aka splat) other players, but instead to color (aka ink) as much ground as possible. Because a game can be turned so rapidly, there's a never ending compulsion to play more - I've gone on epic win streaks as well as devastating lose streaks - because I'm not guaranteed a win because there's no "easy mode" and you're thrown into real world players, it only makes me want to play this game more. Overall, if you're looking for a fun and addictive game, this is a good one to consider.
FYI - In September, Nintendo will be charging for online gaming - presumably this game included. Because the offline play for this game is so limiting (story mode only), keep in mind you may end up having to pay $20 each year to continue playing this online once Nintendo launches it's online gaming. For now it's free, but you may need to pay annually in the future. If limited to story mode only, this game will not be worth it because the story mode is incredibly short and this is a one player game only.

Y es que, en la tradicional fórmula de Nintendo, no necesitas ser un experto para poder jugar Splatoon. La mécanica del juego se centra en pintar todo lo que puedas, por ello, los novatos pueden centrarse en pintar y ser apoyo, mientras que los veteranos se lanzan al frente de batalla para exterminar a los jugadores del equipo contrario. Cada segundo cuenta y cada mancha que avientas cambia el resultado de la partida.
Si a eso le sumas un excelente gameplay y un diseño de arte fabuloso, tienes aquí un juego que desborda creatividad por donde le mires.
Existen varios modos de juego, pero ninguno te tomará más de 3 minutos completarlo; así que tengas 2 horas libres, o sólo 15 minutos, puedes aventarte una partida sin problemas.
Desde su lanzamiento en Julio, el juego ha estado recibiendo actualizaciones constantes, y casi cada mes agregan nuevos mapas, armas y accesorios, por lo que es un muy buen momento para hacerse de este juego.
Pasaron los años y no pude comprarme lo de lanzamiento, la verdad no era mi prioridad, pero ahora que lo hice puedo decir que es el mejor juego de la vida. Las partidas en línea son estables y muy divertidas, la tienda del juego(solo gastas dinero del juego, no dinero real) es magnífica, toda la ropa de los inklinks me encanta.
Nintendo supo darle su toque a un género y lo hizo propio

Este juego esta diseñado para jugarlo en linea, tiene algunos modos multiplayer pero el core esta en el single-player.
Lo compre dudoso de si me iba a gustar ya que no tuve oportunidad de jugar la version 1 (de Wii U) pero este juego me encanto, recomendado al 100%
Aparte que con amazon prime me salio un poco mas barato que comprarlo en una tienda fisica y lo tuve el dia del lanzamiento sin problemas.
