Dan: Splat! Splat! Splat! SPLATOON IS HERE!!!! It’s a pretty unique game, as well as Nintendo’s first team shooter. (HEY, NOBODY CARES wABOUT COMPARING IT TO TEAM FORTRESS 2!) The objective of the game is, well, it’s a team shooter. But instead 

of killing others, you have to cover turf with your ink. What’s more unique is that there are cool characters matc

hing the the

me. Meet the Inklings, human beings that can transfor

m into squids. There is a story mode, which involves a war against Octarians, which are anthropomorphic

octopi. Led by Captain Cuttlefish, it’s up to YOU (yes, you) to stop them and get the G

reat Zapfish! There are unique bosses in story mode. On the other hand it has good 

graphics, impressive story, and it’s just darn fun! Also, amiibo. Tap amiibo to get cool challenges and unlock new gear! You can get cool gear and weapons to improve your ink arsenal. Updates! The Squid Sisters, Callie and Marie, give you new updates. And Splatfests! 

Monthly events involving polls based on favorite stuff like Cats vs. Dogs, Marshmallows vs. Hot Dogs, heck, even a Transformers-themed Splatfest happened! Hopefully, this will get you a jump-start on Splatoon, squid kids! See you next month, and as Callie and Marie would say, STAAAY FRESH!!!

Stamati: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U is definitely the best Super Smash Bros game, and possibly the best game on the Wii U. For those of you who don’t know Super Smash Bros is a fighting game that stars all your favorite Nintendo characters. They duke it out until they blow the other character off the screen, BOOM! Speaking of which, lets talk about some of the characters. Some of them 

are characters that are very well known, Like Mario, Kirby, Pikachu, and Donkey Kong. But others are not as well known, like Marth, Ness, and The Wii fit trainer. Also, Miis! You get to play as your Mii characters in 3 different styles, Brawler, Swordfighter and Gunner! There are also characters from other companies like Pacman, Megaman, and Sonic. My personal favorite is Jigglypuff. Next there is the soundtrack. There are a lot of remakes of classic songs, like Mega Man 2 Medley from Mega Man, Gourmet Race from Kirby, and Victory Road from Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire. And they also made some original music, like Trophy Rush and PictoChat. There are a couple new modes, like Smash Tour, Master and Crazy Orders, the previously mentioned Trophy Rush, and the best mode, 8-PLAYER SMASH!!!! This mode allows you to play with up to 8 PEOPLE at the same time. Finally the online. It is A LOT better than online in Brawl. You can also do tourneys! The reason why this game is a lot better than the previous versions of smash bros, is that there is a lot of variety, there are over 50 characters, over 400 songs, and a lot of DLC (downloadable content) yet to come. That’s all, and remember to keep calm, and SETTLE IT IN SMASH!!!!
