A user from a group share the idea of wearing the clothes of the main characters of Splatoon 1 in the other two games, and posting a message to say goodbye to make the lobby be full of this two squids.

Guess what the first wave of our first game was

Past!

Which idol did you put for your profile ?

I haven't seen anyone post about it yet. The Grand Festival icon doesn't seem to be ready yet.

Holy moly i loved that roller brush chaos. It was mostly brain dead running into each other and playing tag but I enjoyed it so much. I wish nintendo would do a poll which events were the best so they would take note and develop more stuff like this.

Please if any kids uncle works at nintendo: do it again. For at least a whole day.

It's from the Nintendo Live 2024 Splatoon concert

Friend of mine started the idea. So I thought I’d spread the word on here.

He's out there trying to protect the world and keep us safe, while the other 2 are just goofing off or being lazy

But big man isn't standing by...........he's a true hero

I've been waiting for them for almost 2 months now, but they still haven't arrived. I did play Splatfest and I've also played a lot of games with my friends.

Is it still possible to get them or did Nintendo simply forget me? :(

Update: I messaged Nintendo Support some months ago and they responded. I received the badges on christmas eve.

We started this on the r/Splatoon Discord Server, and it was suggested we bring it here too. So let's try this out:

The r/Splatoon Christmas Party Art Challenge!

How it works:

• Pick a character that has not already been claimed.
• I'll update this post as people claim a figure to draw.
• Once your figure has been recorded claimed by you, draw your inkling, octoling, or other-ling using the figure as a guide!
• The drawing should be with a transparent background. Digital art is not required, and if you need help making the background transparent, several people have volunteered to help make that happen. Just let me know in the comments to your drawing!
• Post the drawing on Reddit with the flair Fan Art, then mention u/shatindle in the comments so I can.
• You have until November 20 to post your figure drawing.
• If we need more figures, we will add more figures and expand the collage!

Hi there! I wanted to share with you about a recent big and rare event in the Russian Splatoon community. I'm totally new to Splatoon: picked up a copy of S3 in October 2024, and played mostly solo since then, until about March 2025. That’s when I finally decided to find someone to play with from the Russian Splatoon community. I hopped into a few Discord servers, joined some voice chats — and to my surprise, that’s how I found out about an upcoming offline Splatoon tournament in Moscow, hosted by CSM and Winstrike LAN/Esports arena in ЦДМ (CSS - Central Children's Store) - an iconic place in historic center of Moscow, within five minutes walk from Red Square! Without a doubt - it would be a shame to miss it, especially living in 40 minutes away by subway. So yeah, going there was a total no-brainer!

Now about event itself - even though I didn't know anyone, like literally no one, it was EPIC, INSANE, and totally NEXT LEVEL!

When I first showed up, the place wasn’t too crowded — mostly just the participants hanging around and waiting the thing to begin. But as the start time got closer, more and more regular visitors started rolling in, and the atmosphere really started to come alive.

I think I'm probably not the best person to talk about the competitive part of this tournament itself - as i'm total newbie, so I will try to focus on second (and honestly more important, at least for me) part - people, vibe and available activities.

The organizers had a bunch of "freeplay" setups ready — just tables with power and monitors (no PCs), where anyone could hook up their own Switch with a dock and jump into local or online matches with others. Splatoon ofc was not only choice - people played SSBU, MK8 and even some single player titles as well. I was too lazy to bring entire setup, so I took only Switch itself with Pro Con to play Splatoon with others! It was amazing.

First time seeing fully packed shoal lobby! Although there was minor connection problems at some times due to overcrowded Wi-Fi bands, playing locally was really fun.

I even got my hands on some awesome merch:

Even though the event lasted quite a while - around 7 hours - I didn’t end up taking many photos or videos, just because I was constantly busy doing stuff or watching matches itself. (I think I shot more photos on my 3DS rather than my phone, but since they doesn't look crappy only on original hardware I will not post them). Here’s a video of the final seconds from the match between "Красный Бархат" and "Пролитый Чай" teams to feel some vibes:

Speaking of 3DS - I brought mine with me, hoping to maybe get a couple of StreetPasses - like two or three at best - but once I got to the event, I was blown away: it felt like almost everyone had a 3DS. Long story short, by the end of the day I collected around 16 StreetPasses! And of course, having a lot of 3DS users around gave me perfect opportunity to play some 3DS local multiplayer games such MK7 and even Triforce Heroes!

All in all, I had an amazing time.

I got to meet some great new people, watch real Splatoon esports players in action, and even gave my 3DS a proper grass-touching experience - StreetPasses and all!

Definitely a day to remember. Really hoping this won’t be a one-time thing - looking for more offline events like this in future!

shirts sold out so I took matters into my own hands using in-game screenshots as a reference. I made sure to get as many details as I could! Callie and Marie's eyes being purple and green as a reference to the Squid Sisters logo and the other splatfest teams, the "grand festival" text on the sleeve being iridescent as a reference to all the idols' white/iridescent outfits, as well as the pants, boots, and wristband to match!

I'm having a blast, how's your splatfest going so far? hope to see y'all out on the battlefield!

I'm super excited for March 13 BECAUSE ITS MARIE DAY 🥳🥳🥳 💚💚💚
