I'm a complete derpface and accidentally bought $20 bucks worth of Nintendo eShop assets only usable in the USA. Any USA members here interested in getting the code, hit me up with a PM.

Region locking codes is just stupid. It should have auto convert option to convert to correct value of your region.

Anyways, I already had discussion with Rayfist and Brad about this and I believe I didn't post it here so I want to:
http://wiiudaily.com/2015/03/splatoon-a ... character/

I personally would enjoy game better if it stayed with Mario. I think it would be a great addition to Mario franchise since it would be unique gameplay. People complained that New Super Mario Bros U was same game like New Super Mario Bros Wii but in HD and with Mario Splatoon, people would finally praise how they finally changed formula.

Also, since I know Brad and Rayfist check this thread a lot, we already had this discussion on Facebook so I would prefer not to just copy-paste all things we said there and argue what would be better :P
We have different views which is ok. I am just wondering to know what other Nintendo fans think about this. I think it could have also been perfect chance to use F.L.U.D.D too.

The only reason Mario might sound more appealing is because it's a series we know what to expect from. There's not a lot to say about Splatoon besides "squids and squid girls" but I'm pretty sure they've got something good going.

Try contacting Nintendo first. Got a free controller and 50$ game in exchange for my 15$ card once. :P

I honestly find squids very not appealing. Even if it was not Mario, I would prefer anyone really over the squids.
Gameplay still looks very fun though despite of characters.

In retrospect, there has not been to many Mario IP's within his main series.

Yes, but seeing as this isn't a Platformer this game wouldn't even be in his main series. It would just be another Mario game.

It is not. It's a little rivalry term for those who have the love of the Lord within them.

Nintendo is teaming up with Playboy to promote Splatoon? I can understand why they did this with Bayonetta 2 but Splatoon? Jesus.
Yep, read this on Nintendolife yesterday. Strategies I guess but it is a bizzare one.

I can understand Bayonetta 2 since it was an M rated title but I really don't understand why Splatoon.

Why? I assume accidentally buying a wrong card doesn't warrant a replacement to-make-up-for-our-mistake from Nintendo's side, does it? x)

Wasn't that because there's also a squid that squirts white ink everywhere and that could be seen as... well... something else.

Man, I just can't wait for Splatoon. I hope we get more game modes. We already have King of the Hill, Turf War, and another one I can't remember. We're also getting a lot of weapons, more than 15 have been announced. And we also get to customize our Inkling to our liking with shoes, shirts, and mostly importantly Hats!
