My 7 year old was asking for this game in the summer holidays, I got it for him on a pocket money basis, I hoped it would help us get through the holidays, I never realised that I would be so addicted to it, every time he plays I have to have a turn or 10!

Just got this the other day and I've spent my whole weekend on it. I haven't been this addicted to a game in a while.

Great game!

The one thing we shouldn't be baffled by, though, is the fact that Nintendo has delivered an excellent, unique game for everyone with a WiiU. It's a game that feels great from the moment you pick it up and just gets bigger, larger, and more involved as you continue on, full of charm and personality...

Splatoon is a must have for Wii U owners. An amazing new twist on the shooter genre where winning is based on how much of a mess you can make and how well you can use your ink based arsenal. While the single player is fun and interesting, the online is where it's at.

Gameplay is highly addictive and a fresh new twist to the Shooter genre; Cultivates everyone of all skill levels; An amazing array of weapons since the August update ranging from guns(blasters) such as sub machine guns to more unique weapons like buckets and paintbrushes.

You can only play one mode in ranked matches until the game switches the modes; You can only play on two maps on turf war or ranked matches; No proper way of communicating with your team; Single Player mode is pretty short.

this game is very fun i love this game hahahahahaha

Splatoon is a pretty big deal. When it was revealed at E3 2014, it excited fans for being Nintendo's first foray into the online shooter genre. It's also the first new character based franchise from Nintendo's main EAD development teams since Pikmin was released on the Gamecube back in 2001.

Fun; flowing gameplay; Tons of customisation; There's nothing else like it

Lack of online options; Limited local multiplayer; Too much locked behind amiibo

Nintendo takes a chance with this odd, risky rethink of the arena shooter. Splatoon moves away from guns and grit, offering a shooter anyone of any age can enjoy. The game's single-player is an absolutely amazing puzzle platformer that deserves some expansion.

A new Nintendo IP doesn't come around all that often. The 100 year old company has produced some of the most memorable worlds and characters in gaming hist

Excellent and unique online multiplayer; Superb visuals and sound; Great new world full of fun characters; Fantastic use of amiibo

No voice chat; No online spitscreen; Limited map/mode selection at launch
