The Japanese Splatoon Twitter account has continued to publish new content from the game. Check out a new set of images above, and some new information below.
This image was sent by one of our researchers.
It appears to be a sketch of the Octopus Army Corps Base, which is the setting for Hero Mode. It seems as though it was made using the remains of an ancient civilization. It seems to be using very familiar things…or is it just my imagination?This is a sketch from the secret investigator. This inkling boy is using a giant paint roller. You can customize all your weapons and clothes; like t-shirts and glasses. Inkling are very fashionable!
In turf battles, you can use special weapons by painting the ground and building up power. Below is one of these, the ‘Barrier’. For a short time, this will rebound all of the opponent’s attacks. It appears that there are other kinds of special weapons to be found as well.
Squidssquirt ink to create a substitute to escape their predators.
It’s an oily substance, difficult to dissolve in water, that becomes a sort of mass.
On the other hand, octopi use ink as a smoke screen. It is water soluble in order to spread.
Like oil and water, even the inks of the two species doesn’t mix.

Australian New 3DS system can essentially become a European unit
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in New Nintendo 3DS, News | 26 Comments
Here’s something interesting about the Australian New 3DS. It appears that content from an original European 3DS system can be transferred over. So if you purchase a New 3DS from Australia, it essentially becomes a European New 3DS.
If you want your Australian New 3DS to function as a European system, first set your location to Australia. Connect to the eShop, exit, and then change it to the European country of your choice. That’s it!

Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire certificate for those with Pokemon from the original games
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 12 Comments
A Japanese gamer who has been playing through Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire came across an interesting message. After bringing over Kyogre from his original game on Game Boy Advance, he was presented with the certificate above.
Here’s how the translation reads:
Dear player Tetra,
We hereby praise you with this certificate, for your unbreakable friendship and tight-knit bond with Kyogre.
From all members of the Game Freak staff.
The certificate doesn’t have much of an effect in Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire, though it’s still thoughtful of Game Freak to consider players from the original games!
