The latest Splatoon update covers the squids’ ability to pass through wire fences. View the new screenshot above, and some information from the game’s Japanese Twitter account below.

It appears that when transformed into squids, the Inklings can pass through wire fences. The can use this special ability to take shortcuts and hidden pathways. However! They must be careful as if they transform while on to of a wire fence, they will fall to the bottom. With that said, what are their bodies made out of that it allows them to do this???

Recently, probably because I’ve been thinking about squids non-stop, I can’t help but notice them everywhere – even at the supermarket.

The other day, I bought a packet of a certain type of calamari for 150 yen. I pan fried it with butter and soy sauce, then dipped it in mayonnaise that was mixed with some ground up chilli pepper seeds. I wonder if it it is alright for something so delicious to exist…..

Kadokawa Games held a presentation in Japan earlier this week to show off some of its upcoming games. Unsurprisingly, Rodea: The Sky Soldier was featured at the event, and a few more details were shared.

Back when the title was first announced, Kadokawa confirmed that Takumi Miyajima (who has been involved with the Tales series) created the world and story. That hasn’t changed, and we also know that the scenario is from Yoichi Kato of Youkai Watch fame.

As previously mentioned, Rodea has lost his memory at the beginning of the game. The story revolves around the idea that he slowly regains it. Ion will act as a support heroine.

The well-known factory defective Samus amiibo – the figure with two arm canons – is going for quite the price on eBay. There’s still over three days remaining before the auction ends, but bids have already reached $900. Getting a defective amiibo ended up working well for the owner, it seems!
