Splatoon 3 is adding a ton of new content in just a couple of weeks as part of the Chill Season 2022, and one of the new pieces of content it’ll bring about is the Brinewater Springs stage. Over on Twitter, Nintendo provided a closer look at the level.
Nintendo said on social media that the stage is “hilly and packed with hot springs.” Players can choose to defend the high ground or attempt to invade from below. Of course, all of the little touches you’d expect from a Nintendo game are here, including a little jellyfish who’s just hanging out by a fountain.

Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Nintendo has started distribution of a small update for another Switch game, and we can now mention that ARMS players can download version 5.4.1.
The official patch notes mimic what we saw today with Splatoon 2, Super Mario Maker 2, and Animal Crossing: New Horizons (see here, here, and here respectively). Once again, Nintendo simply states that “several issues have been addressed to improve the gameplay experience.” Although we don’t have any other information, all of the games that were updated tonight were likely done so for the same reason.

The 2019 Switch game Super Mario Maker 2 has been given a new version 3.0.2 update. All players can download it now.
Like the new update that just went out for Splatoon 2, the patch notes for Super Mario Maker 2 are keeping things simple. Nintendo only states: “Several issues have been addressed to improve the gameplay experience.” The fact that a couple of Nintendo’s older titles were updated at the same time suggests that something more is going on here, but the Big N doesn’t want to elaborate.
