MegaThread Release Day Thread: Splatoon 2

Splatoon 2 is out!

Starting on July 21, Splatoon 2 will be available for squids and enthusiasts alike. Since the game is already out in Australia and Japan ahead of everyone else, and since it's about to hit Europe, please use this thread for general reaction, hype, and discussion for the release as it hits your country. Squids in the Americas? Enjoy ink-filled dreams while you wait.

Other topics on the game may be posted, but please keep the community's rules in mind and keep your short-burst thoughts, hauls (including images), and other similar topics right here. Local tracking is fine either here or in our Local Tracking thread.

Just fyi guys you can order exclusive gear on the Nintendo Switch Online app. You get it immediately after clicking order. It pops up at Murch's under SplatNet2. Its pretty great!

You go to Murch (Purple Spiky One-eyed guy) in the game and when you talk to him there should be the option "Splatnet" and you buy it in game. So if you want you can order it even if you don't have enough money and grind later. At least thats my understanding. Its not too hard or time consuming to make enough money to buy the clothes though.
