An art book based on Splatoon was recently made available in Japan. Through one of the images, we’re able to see what looks like urinal warp zones. It seems that, at one point, the developers thought about letting players transform into squids and use urinals/sinks to warp to different areas on the map.

Natsume won’t be bringing any additional titles to the North American Wii U Virtual Console this year. Instead, we’ll need to wait until 2016 for any additional titles. That means we won’t be seeing the likes of Medabots: Rokusho/Metabee and the two Medabots AX games until a couple of months from now at the very least.

Interacting with fans on Twitter, Natsume said:

Medabots: Rokusho and Metabee have been available in Europe since October. The Medabots AX games are due out in the region this Thursday.
