Splatoon 2’s Splatfest carries over the mayonnaise vs. ketchup theme into the actual ink
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 39 Comments
Splatoon 2’s first actual Splatfest carries the same topic worldwide. It’s the battle of the condiments: mayonnaise and ketchup.
Even in the battles themselves, Nintendo is holding true to the Splatfest theme. The ink colors have the same exact mayonnaise and ketchup theme. Pretty neat, right?
The first Splatfest is already underway in Japan. It’ll begin at 12 AM ET / 9 PM PT tonight. In Europe, it’s scheduled to start at 4 PM on Saturday. Each event lasts for a full day.

Cordelia and Female Robin have just been revealed to be coming to Fire Emblem Warriors, but the official Twitter account for the game is already teasing what’s next: sometime this month, a male archer and a female rider will be revealed.
The male archer is likely to be either Virion or Takumi, but the female rider is a lot harder to predict. Camilla, Hinoka or Caeda all seem like likely targets, though it could also be Elise, Est or a number of other characters.. What are your predictions?

ARMS update planned for next week
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 4 Comments
The next update for ARMS will make its way out to players next week, Nintendo has announced.
Specifics about the patch are mostly under wraps. However, we do know that balance adjustments will be implemented. The update will be pushed out in the middle of the week.
The most recent update for ARMS released about a month ago. It was rather significant, adding in Max Brass as a playable character, his ARMS and stage, the “Hedlok Scramble” mode, and more. Next week’s update may not be as big, but will still be worthwhile.
