alienboyva Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Hmmm...Not sure what this could be. Maybe some kind of crossover or more info on the Octo-Expansion? TBH, that really wouldn't shock me. Maybe "Shock the world" is hinting at something? IDK...The only thing that I can think of that would really shock me, is if Nintendo didn't require a subscription to their online to play Splatoon 2 online. 😜 Though, Nintendo wouldn't be that stupid, especially since how popular the game is in JPN.

Eliwood8 Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Zapfish to be playable in the Octo Expansion? 😮 Kezay, purple_beard, DLurkster and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment
EH_STEVE Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Ridley is playable Link, the Hero of Dreams and DLurkster 2 Quote Link to comment
EH_STEVE Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Actual guesses: -Acceptance into some sort of Major League Gaming thing (I don't follow these so I don't know) -An anime -A crossover with another major franchise -A new game mode Quote Link to comment

I think it would be cool to get a little more variety of characters to play as that isn't based on gear. Quote Link to comment

A new game mode would be interesting, though I don't remember, did they hype up Clam Blitz at all? I feel like it just kind of popped up. Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 For some reason I feel, it's just more news on the octo-expansion but I feel whatever the news will shock westerners more than Japan, really. Whatever it is I'm looking forward to the news. Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted May 11, 2018 Author Share Posted May 11, 2018 (edited) Typical Nintendo response... 😑 Though, this makes me wonder if this could be a JPN only related announcement? In that case, if NOA or NOE was asked (not sure if NCL was they one asked), they most likely wouldn't know anything. Still, if there is indeed a big Splatoon announcement coming, were not going to hear about it until Nintendo is ready. Edited May 11, 2018 by alienboyva Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 @alienboyva: I'm glad it was you that posted a update and not me. I had my doubts about this news, well more so about the shock value not that there was any new to share about Splatoon 2. And you might be on to something AB, I surmise this supposed 'shock the world' surprise would more shock western audience as opposed to the the east. If the reverse is true may be this will more be surprise to them and appeal too. Quote Link to comment
alienboyva Posted May 13, 2018 Author Share Posted May 13, 2018 (edited) Well, looks like this is indeed happening... Makes me think that statement Nintendo put out meant that it wasn't going to be reviled via Weekly Jump. Edited May 13, 2018 by alienboyva Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Okay, as it stands. I don't know who to trust. So anything is shared I'll come here cause I'm waiting for news drop because I still don't see what it can be that that is drawing some interest. Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Welp, here's that shock the world news for Splatoon 2. https://gonintendo.com/stories/310786-splatoon-2-corocoro-reveals-spy-gear-clothing Quote Link to comment
TKrazyO Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Shock the world? This guy knows all about it. I completely forgot all about the "news." If it's just Spywear, I'm not sure what's shocking about that. Quote Link to comment
