I’m still floating on the joy of playing the Wii U original, so this is probably a day one purchase. Just a week before FFVII-2 comes out for switch, though, and then then new school year means if I don’t get it in July, I might forget about it. I hope not.

That said, I really just like using my Aerospray and singe player always limits your weapon choices. I hope that the sub weapon construction means you can always select those, at least.

Already I’m sad that this isn’t a multi-player game like Salmon Run. Not that I do much online anymore.

There is option to play co-op with upto 3 other players (online or local wireless).

You’ve brightened my day! I wish I could give you more than one upvote!

Let's keep those extra upvotes safe for a rainy day 😀

Is this a smaller title? I'm wondering if the 50/60 price tag is an exception or if they'll actually decrease prices going forward.

Either way, I have enough Switch 1 games in my backlog that I'll pass on it and most S2 games for now. I haven't actually played a mainline Splatoon game yet.

I think it might be a smaller title. Though with their reduced digital prices, I am hoping digital games won't cross $60 now.
