Switch Title 3 -

My daughter bought a Nintendo Switch in the (pandemic) summer of 2020, with a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate cartridge. She asked us (mom, dad, sister) to play with her, and it was quite a bit of fun. I treated her to Super Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and that was so much fun, I decided to get my own personal Switch. Her friend mentioned Splatoon, and so we each bought that game... and in short order it became _by far_ my favorite video game.There are quite a few "game modes". They're all fun, but the most compelling do require a Nintendo on-line subscription. Once you have that you can start with the basic "Turf War" which I think is most iconic: You play an "inkling" character who plays a sort of "paint ball" game in various arenas. You'll be part of a team of four, playing against another team of four for three minutes. However, the objective is not just to take down your opponents by "splatting" them with ink, but also to have as much of the arena painted with your team's ink. You start off with a pretty good gun and the ability to throw "ink bombs", but as you play (win or lose) you gain "coins" that allow you to buy alternative "ink weapons". There are _many_ of these, and it's fun to try out several. You also get to buy increasingly more expensive "gear" (shirts, shoes, hats, and the like) that improve your weapons or your resistance to ink. It's all great fun, and the ink-based gameplay is a refreshing alternative to the more serious violence in other games.Turf War is just the beginning. There is a single-player mode that is fun too: You go on some kind of secret missions collecting various items and trying out ink weapons against somewhat-slow villains. It's a great way to practice various game mechanics, and occasionally you'll find "tickets" that can be useful for the competitive multiplayer modes (like Turf War). Some levels are "bosses" that are a bit harder to beat. If you have the cartridge version of the game you can play this without an internet connection (the digital version needs an internet connection to authorize the game, unfortunately).There is also a multiplayer (on-line, again) cooperative mode called Salmon Run that gets quite challenging quite quickly. It's also lots of fun, and gets you rewards also.After playing Turf War for a few hours, you'll reach a level where you can play "Rank Battles". These are similar to Turf War, but the objective is different (there are several modes) and they require a bit more skill.If you have one or more friends you can also set up an arena to battle in among yourselves, or you create a team to join League Play (I haven't done the latter yet).Finally, occasionally Nintendo organizes a "Splat Fest": All Splatoon 2 players can chose one of two teams and for 48 hours you play battles (Turf War) gaining points for your team. At the end of the 48 hours, a winning team is designated and every participant gets awards usable in the game later (but more awards go to the winners, and to those who played more matches). I just played my first Splat Fest for Halloween 2020 and it was quite exhilarating (I was on "Team Trick"; unfortunately, "Team Treat" won, but I still learned a lot).Anyway, as I say, this is my favorite game and by itself makes the Switch worth it for me. You do need a network connection and a Nintendo on-line account to make it worthwhile. (I've played by using my phone as a hot spot with a fairly weak signal and that was still plenty good enough to play with no hiccups. You do need a good Wifi signal though — to your router or phone — because the Switch's Wifi is not superb.)

Fantastic game! It expanded on its original and fixed a large amount of issues and gripes with it as well. The single player mode has been extended with more collectibles and more reason to replay levels due to having access to many more weapons. It also is more of a challenge, making it something that both newcomers and veteran players could enjoy. It also has dialogue that is more comedic this time around, which adds to the enjoyment if you choose not to ignore it. The new addition of Salmon Run is welcome as its similar to other games' "Zombie Mode." You start off forced to play through two tutorial levels, but afterwards you can jump into games with some online/local friends or random players. It starts off simple but as you rank up it becomes increasingly unpredictable and much more difficult. It has a limited time frame of when you can play it, but I believe it helps it from becoming stale too quickly.The main multiplayer gameplay is much more fast-paced making the turf wars intense. Weapons are also much more balanced, there are some that are notably better at one job or another, but as far as I can see there isn't a weapon that is absurdly overpowered. Ranked battles returned and are improved somewhat from Splatoon 1. Splatzones seems unchanged, but now the weapon in Rainmaker fires a burst shot instead of a large tornado, which makes taking that to the enemy base more difficult and has you rely on your team instead of soloing with the powerful weapon. Tower Control's tower now stops at checkpoints, making it tougher for a team to race it to the goal, giving a down team more of a chance.However this isn't without its drawbacks. Once you are in a multiplayer lobby with random players, you cannot leave unless you lose internet connection. This makes it frustrating when you want to go to the shops after leveling up, but you accidentally click "yes" when asked to play again. You also cannot change your loadouts in turf wars unless you leave the game, making every time you want to try a new weapon more of a hassle as you have to sit through more waiting screens than you should. You also cannot play ranked with friends until you reach a certain rank in it's respective modes, meaning you have to play a good amount of time alone with randoms before you have the chance to play with a team of your own. The voice chat is a separate issue, but if you are playing with friends its recommended that you use a separate app to chat.However even with those issues, the game is still a blast to play and they only slightly hinder the experience that this game has to offer. That is why this still has a 5 star rating. It will provide many hours of enjoyment and have an increasing longevity with its year of Free DLC Content in the form of updates.

Jeu léger et amusant

Intrigante y muy divertido

Prazo correto, produto funcionando.

My son absolutely loves this game. Apparently the playability is amazing. Good online play. The only reason he’s moved on a bit is splatoon 3

If u own a Nintendo switch then u have to buy this game. Every penny is worth buying this game. And multiplayer works as well in India. Just change ur country to USA in Nintendo account.
