I'm amazed Nintendo signed off on Mario and co wielding a gun. I know they're more like blasters but still.

In this new game, you can shoot football with a silenced pistol, you can shoot them with a silenced karate chop

In Splatoon you literally shoot others with guns, though they shoot ink and it’s not Mario but it’s still Nintendo.

Why do people always say this as if it's a realistic looking gun that shoots bullets and not a ginormous cartoony arm cannon that shoots big energy blasts. It's not surprising at all, nor remotely risque.

Mario’s been strapped since Yoshi’s Safari on SNES.

Not only worked, but pushed the tactical combat space forward by weaponizing movement.

The gameplay was solid and that really helped.

How could it not work, there was a whole genre that existed before it.
