There's something wholesome about the OG Splatoon 1 direct. This whole thing was such an original and strange concept that it's likely Nintendo didn't know how to sell it. Compare this to the trailers we see for Splatoon 2 and 3, it's very straight to the point.
3:36 Funny fact, in Splatoon 1, jump was actually the X button, not the B button, most likely because the right stick on the Wii U Gamepad was closest to the X button! In Splatoon 2 and the change in default controller, Jump was moved to the B button being closer to the stick and the map on the Gamepad was moved to the X button. Ah, the finer details.
I remember the beginning of Splatoon 2 days all the players who had come from Splatoon 1 would try jumping with X and fall off the map- 😂 ahhh those memes were SO funny to watch
5:53 literally the only reason my mom let me get splatoon in the first place cuz it “wasn’t blood” 💀💀 still wouldn’t play bloody games voluntarily tho, I like my little squid ppl
This direct is nostalgic and it's the GOOD kind of cringe. Splatoon 1's servers have been down for 2 and a half months now, and I'm so glad I grinded the hell out of it last summer before splat 3 came out. I'm level 50 and I have every weapon and every piece of gear. Never got to S+ though
back in splatoon 1, Blasters where classified as shooters and Brushes where classified as rollers Splatlings where free DLC And it took to splatoon 3 for us to get what I'd consider a subclass for chargers, stringers E-liter 3k is the 4k but with 15% more range... imagine that in splat 3... terrifying Bubbler was 7 seconds minus 1 second duration for each ally you chain to Burst Bomb also only consumed 25% ink on use, and you could get it down to 20% easily.instead of 45% we have now
Small corrections : Brushes were rollers and blasters were shooters until splatoon 3 gave them their own classes Dynamo was absolutely BUSTED in S1 and is the reason of like half of the nerfs in the game its due to the fact it along with other rollers had no damage falloff meaning that any speck of ink shot from it would OS coupled to the fact that at launch it was a middleweight weapon made it SCARY
This is exactly why I like to joke that splatoon was the first and only time in my life I experienced love at first sight. Before the game released I saw the trailer for it and was absolutely captivated by it. I've never seen anything like it! Hell I hated shooters yet I immediately knew I HAD to play this game 8 years later this silly ass game is still my hyperfixation. The only shooter to grow up with me. I wouldn't want it any other way
@@Kimiiswaffles you could play on the tv and the game pad separately, it’s not technically split screen but its kind of like it so their mistake is understandable
Looking back in this video kinda feels like a warm, sad, and nostalgic window into the past. Funnily enough, I remember Splatoon 1’s base filled up with a lot more squids with Miiverse posts compared to the DLC that was included in Splatoon 3. It feels kinda unfortunate how after being let loose in the Splatlands and seeing the vast plaza, Inkopolis Plaza seems so much smaller in comparison. Every future Splatoon installment isn’t going to be like the last, but there was something about 1 that understood it’s whole theme and feel, down to the advertising and Direct. As every next installment releases, there’s something about how the games present themselves as you growing up along with them. Splatoon 1 rocked my preteen years and 3 is absolutely amazing at my current age. Looking back it feels funnily strange, where you think to yourself “Huh, was it all really this silly?” As every installment continues to get more serious and bombastic with its theming. I still look back on Splatoon 1 as being a factor of my growth in entertainment, though there’ll never quite be a game that will match it’s thematics down to a T.
33:51 Some context about this, Nintendo delayed Cats vs Dogs to July 4th because of the "Matchmaking Issues of the Rice vs Bread Splatfest in Japan" that happened on June 20th/June 21st, the Matchmaking issue being No Vs. Self (Which is why Lobbies took so long), which was added in an update before Cats vs Dogs went live
I WAS on Team Cats. I’ve been playing Splatoon since the first Global Testfire on the WiiU. 😭 I remember hating how it looked at E3 when it was revealed and then slowly coming to love it and giving it a try in the Global Testfire
“So this was before vertical flicks so rollers were good but not super good, and also flinza didn’t exist so rollers were terrible” meanwhile almost all patches in the latter half of the games life nerfed Dynamo roller
3:25 I JUST realized the design on the wall(as well as the fox on one of the Inkopolis Plaza buildings) is indeed an extinct animal-the only mammals they have are the 2 Judds. The inklings don’t seem to have the technology to really recreate what all the fossils and leftover skeletons used to look like anyway, so there’s no way they’d know what a fox looks like. Hmmm….
Here’s the interesting thing, that statue is based off real figures that exist and sense splatoon is post apocalyptic earth. Inkings most likely became inspired by these figures results in statue like the fox and also tanuki we see in splatoon1’s plaza. On top of that, think about how much the splatoon inhabitant’s knowledge is a based on human remanence. Like think about how much of there idea of dinosaurs is based on old Jurassic park merch. The whole splatoon world really is just a sunken ship situation. Anyway on a funnier note I like to imagine the urchin like Spike and Merch have a deep seeded instinctual hatred towards sea otters. Like there’s just a bunch of imagery left behind by humans and urchins just destroy and vandalize it all.
They never got rid of genders in SPTN3, as proven by the pitch of their voices, as well as having 2 squid & octoling choices. The only thing gender related they did was make every hair style & gender-locked clothing style on the amiibos accessible for everyone to wear.
Seeing as how much attention it's gotn, I shud make an official video explaining what exactly Nintendo did in terms of gender related things, people's reactions, & thoughts on the matter. Look forward to that sometime soon! 🫠🙏
Still happy they mentioned the Mii Gunner outfits! They looked soooooo cool! 😎👍 Also, yes! Jelonzo still changes outfits in Splatoon 3. You're more than welcome. 😉
2:25 they actually do have “genders” pay a close look at the pants, ofc in game there’s no gender lock so you can wear whatever (wich is amazing for people who feel like they don’t really fall into a “gender” or want to wear whatever) but the protagonist can be female or male it’s just never spoken or mentioned (wich is also pretty cool)
Biological sex and gender are different things, sex is your body aspects and gender is the way you feel and wasn't to be percieved by society. So by not mentioning anything about gender, that is a conformation that gender is no longer relevant in splatoon and you can merely pick the biological sex of the character instead.
The only thing squid surge is useful for is maybe getting a jump on a person, or just waiting on a wall. It’s useless for climbing a wall. It’s still better to just smash the jump button.
I started playing since Splatoon 1, but I was really late to the party and only had like 10 hours on the game so I can understand why you think that lol
Notice how in the super jump section, bluefin depot was on the gamepad but the game actually showed urchin underpass? Now I know why it’s a single player map
27:32 Before Version 2.0.0, the maximum rank was A+ with 99 points, at which point the text would change from white to yellow. The update added Rank S and S+ to the ranking system, making the maximum Rank S+ with 99 points.
On the topic of "things we take for granted now that were revolutionary back then", how about those gyro controls? I remember a lot of people being skeptical at the time, but it not only became a hallmark of Splatoon, but was adopted by several other shooters because of how intuitive it ended up being
Man... It feels weird just *hearing* about this old Direct. Like, so much about the OG Splatoon felt like it was a fever dream. By the way, the clothing used by the official staff during the Global Testfire was purely cosmetic, just like the gear you could get from pre-ordering the game during the Global Testfire. Both gear sets could be found in the final game's files (after an update as initially both gear sets weren't present in the files) alongside early, rough/unfinished duplicates and completely unused gear. One of the interesting things about the Global Testfire itself is the fact no save data if created upon booting the demo (why would it be created in the first place, not like you gain any EXP or Money after a battle or that there's any data that could be transferred), as a result if the game is closed after the Global Testfire is finished for the day (or closed in general for any reason) the pre-purchase gear is lost, most likely forever unless stated otherwise, meaning if you came back for the remaining days to play some more you'd look like everyone else except those who work at Nintendo who would be wearing the special gear made for them. Sucks to be a rage-quiter during that event, huh?
I (kinda) remember this Splatoon direct a long time ago back in May 2015. The Splatoon direct was weird, but awesome at the same time! I had fond memories with Splatoon. I used to have a Wii-U back then to play these awesome Wii-U titles like Splatoon for a example (and others like New Super Mario Bros-U, Nintendoland, Pikmin 3, Rayman Legends, Skylanders Trap Team-Imaginators, Yoshi's Wooly World, Epic Mickey 2, and Super Smash Bros Wii-U for a example). But sadly though in October 2018, I sold my Wii-U for Xbox One X.
Gender wasn't never removed, just because it's not mentioned in the settings doesn't mean it's no longer a thing. (Japan still had gender in the settings) It's cool we can wear all types of clothes now.
Both motion & stick controls were added to the game, however I'm sure Nintendo made it so that the game can introduce motion controls automatically to new players, thus the reason y alot of ppl consider it to b the way it shud b played. (If not for the option to turn off motion, I'd probably hav never played sptn ever!)
Bro its been almost 9 years, I was in elementary school 🤣 I think it was probably the beginning of summer break before 5th grade, I bought the game day 1 at gamestop, I think I still got my free squid hat somewhere, I kept it for a long time. I still remember that day too, I don't think I had really played it much or maybe even gotten into a match at first that day, and I remember goin to my neighbors to play with their grandson, who was one of my school buddies, childhood memories. Anyways I'm kinda ramblin here in some youtube comment section, it's like past midnight and I should probably go get ready for bed, I made it 1:57 into the video, nice
they actually didnt get rid of genders in splatoon 3, i noticed the first hair picker was actually a unique gender chooser, because if u choosed the more female like hair u actually (if ur an octoling) get eyelashes, and well yes a bigger chest. squids dont have that but i think they do have a chest for the girls, while the boy octolings dont have chest or eyelashes. same with inkling boys but with chest, so no they didnt remove it
got so confused when u said "in splatoon 3 they got rid of their genders" and I thought u meant canonically but I think you meant when creating your character I got so confused for a sec

There's no genders in Splatoon 3, just body types. I can't find those comments :J

I almost never remember use the jump button until I did the campaign. Note I got to 40 something by the time I saw gramps.
Fun fact: BotW has an option to swap B and Xdepending on which one you want to use for jumping

Anyways I'm kinda ramblin here in some youtube comment section, it's like past midnight and I should probably go get ready for bed, I made it 1:57 into the video, nice
they actually didnt get rid of genders in splatoon 3, i noticed the first hair picker was actually a unique gender chooser, because if u choosed the more female like hair u actually (if ur an octoling) get eyelashes, and well yes a bigger chest. squids dont have that but i think they do have a chest for the girls, while the boy octolings dont have chest or eyelashes. same with inkling boys but with chest, so no they didnt remove it
got so confused when u said "in splatoon 3 they got rid of their genders" and I thought u meant canonically but I think you meant when creating your character
I got so confused for a sec
We need a counter for everytime he says “like”

I hate gyro controls I always have because it’s just too hard to manage
