A brand new stage for Splatoon 2 has been revealed on the series’ official Japanese Twitter account. Today, we have a look at the Diadema Amphitheater.
This is a facility used for concerts from various artists. The legendary Squid Squad band also used to hold concerts here, and this is known as the holy place for rock music. Some may be worried that the machinery may get damaged due to the ink, but there are already proper countermeasures to prevent that from happening.
Here’s a look at the stage:

According to a report from Gamasutra, Nintendo of America co-founder Alan Stone has passed away. Stone died at the age of 71 on Friday due to cancer.
Stone acted as one of the co-founders for Nintendo of America in 1981, and was also key in the company’s early efforts to distribute its coin-op games in America. He later joined SEGA before becoming a board member and chief operating officer of Nanotech Media a few years ago.
Stone spoke about his time at Nintendo and more during a 2013 interview:
Our deepest sympathies go out to Stone’s family.
Gamekult has a new interview up with Nintendo France’s Philippe Lavoue. Among other things, Lavoue discussed sales expectations for Switch.
So far, Nintendo is seeing pre-orders similar to those of Wii in France. The company also expects to sell 800,000 units this year, which would be the lifetime sales of Wii U. That includes 95,000 units on day one with a near 100 percent conversion rate with Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
Gray is currently more popular than the neon option at the moment. However, Lavoue thinks things will ultimately shift in the opposite direction.
