Why couldn't they have released splatoon 2 first instead

>>377566838
>You might die before Splatoon 2 comes out

Because they're struggling to add enough original material to Splatoon 2 to justify it being an actual sequel. It won't be delayed, and they'll get the usual 'Nintendo Bonus' senselessly high review scores, but they're still (as always) keeping the extreme long-term brand value in mind.

I'm with you, OP. I'm considering buying a Switch solely for Splatoon 2 and I couldn't give less of a shit about Arms.

>>377566838
Didn't they only finish with Splatoon 1 like a year and a half ago? Give them time.

If any Nintendo game were released under a random indie studio name it would either be a breakout hit 8+/10 game, or a total bomb. Simply by being Nintendo-branded it is guaranteed to be 8/10 at a minimum.

>>377569587
It's being developed on an insanely fast schedule (especially by Nintendo standards). They didn't even commit to 'Splatoon 2' (vs 'Splatoon HD') until about a year ago.

>>377569870

You remember the arcade one and BOTH NES versions but not the one on the Wii?

I mean, shit, the Wii one was pretty much a remake of the NES one with an entire second campaign and no Mike Tyson until the very end where Sandman IS the Tyson, one-hit-kill punches and all.

Splatoon's reviews were silly. And they were basically all highly inaccurate within the first week if not the first couple of days.

ARMs looks like a great local multiplayer game, but I have no interest in playing it online and I don't want to buy another pair of Joycons when there are games with local multiplayer that I can play without.

So yeah, gibsme Splatoon.

Speaking of ARMS. Can you play Splatoon 2 in split screen online like you can with ARMS?
I hope so. It'd make a huge difference.

Dude, Splatoon OG was made in less than a year. That's incredibly small for any new Nintendo IP. To be fair though, it did show with the launch game. The free dlc stages, modes, weapons, gear, and music really showed that they cared though.

Splatoon 2 looks like a vast polish and feels great. New weapons, music, style changes, maps, campaign, modes, old amiibo compatability.
It's a sequel that surely time and love has been sunk into if we're judging purely off of the dlc and splatfests added to the original.

Also, if they don't have the Ika dlc from the first one I will be so fucking pissed holy shit.

>>377570197
>Simply by being Nintendo-branded it is guaranteed to be 8/10 at a minimum.
I'd agree that the name is the reason it sells, but I don't agree that it's the reason it is held high by reviewers.
Nintendo has released some real stinkers, and even IGN wont suck their cocks when it happens.

Some pedos like good (or at least existent) gameplay in their jailbait ridden media.

Does anyone feel like Arms is the anti-Splatoon?

If that were the case then Federation Force and 1 2 Switch wouldn't have been eviscerated in reviews. Even Splatoon 1 didn't get amazing scores due to the lack of content at launch.

Honestly depending on the Global Testfire for ARMS, I think that'll be my major deciding factor for the game. If it's something I can get into, enjoy, and want to keep playing more of, I'll buy it, but if it isn't, I'll probably just see if it'll ever go on sale and pick it up then.
I'm glad that Nintendo's doing these things with more than just Splatoon, which sadly I missed the Testfire for 2 because my Switch hadn't arrived yet. It's honestly a good way to market your product and see what people think of it.

>Because they're struggling to add enough original material to Splatoon 2 to justify it being an actual sequel
How can anyone be this wrong? Splatoon was rushed testrun, because Nintendo didn't believe the new IP could make it. You have your angle right there to shit on Splatoon 2, but you don't, because you don't know. You're mocking Splatoon 2 for being Splatoon 2.0, which it actually is, but you have no fucking idea why.

>>377580338

Ameriburgers are always having to be in competition to prove something with their enculteration by the capitalist system that they're top dog and everything below it loses. Insecurities and all. If you have a 10 inch dick, it has a 25 inch dick to beat yours. If you have a car that has 6 cylinders, theirs has 36 cylinders, and they always have to be smug. To hide their real insecurities. Just look at their president who has been caught lying all the time, he's a real exemplification of the American ideal.

The "Nintendo Bonus" is how salty Sonygers and Xbros (not that they exist anymore) cope with Nintendo having genuinely good games. It's just paid reviews, when Nintendo is notably skimpy with marketing.

Because ARMS is new. IF ninty released it like Splatoon 2 -> ARMS, then more people will skip ARMS because they'll be satisfied with Splatoon 2. If it's ARMS -> Splatoon 2, more people will buy ARMS so they have something to play because the other games are still not here
