Splatoon
Platforms: Nintendo Wii U Genre: Third-Person Action Shooter Publisher: Nintendo Developer: Nintendo Co., Ltd. Release: 05/29/2015 Players: 4 vs. 4 Official Game Tumblr: http://splatoonus.tumblr.com Age Range: 6+ Show Your True Colors http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8L54s2m1dPs Splatoon is a Wii U multiplayer action game featuring which two teams are trying to capture as much territory as possible. In doing so, players shoot ink to paint over the ground and destroy opponents. In human form, players can shoot ink and attack opponents, and when turned into squid, they can swim in ink. With the Wii U GamePad, players can enjoy intuitive motion control and battle tracking on a map displayed on the touchscreen. Each group has its own paint color. The team needs not so much to destroy the enemy groupings as to cover the maximum area of ​​the battle arena with paint of its own color. Moving on a surface painted in "native" color allows the character to spread into squid form and restore ammunition, and also makes it possible to move at an increased speed, but getting into enemy "painting experiments" greatly slows down.

Don't make Nintendo laugh.

ready
only unlikely to help
Little by little, translation of messages from the game's Japanese Twitter is starting to leak. Thanks to him, something has already become known about the control and functionality of the Wii U gamePad, namely:
ZL - Squid (dive into ink, restore the charge of your ink).
L-stick - Character movement.
Button R - Bomb (Spends 70% of the ink charge).
ZR - Shooting with ink (when shooting, of course, ink is also wasted).
R-stick - Camera.
Button X - Jump.
Y button - Reset, set the camera to the default angle.
The Squid Icon on the Wii U GamePad allows you to join a teammate in a Big Leap.
The game controller's gyroscope is used for running.

Well what the fuck?
[member = 'Phoenix Wright'] where did you get this from?
here is the original:
ZL - Squid (dive into ink, restores ink)
L-stick - move
R-button - Bomb (uses 70% of your ink)
ZR - Ink Shot (uses up ink)
R-stick - looks left / right
X - Jump
Y - Camera Reset
Touch the Squid Icon to make a big jump to one of your team mates.
Use gyro to aim. Modified on November 13, 2014 by VLQ
Aiming control has long been known. Somewhat crookedly translated from Japanese lolki
[quote name = "Phoenix Wright" post = "4522980" timestamp = "1415869084"] [b] [member = 'VLQ'] [/ b], with veeyupro [/ quote] and why I not surprised
[member = 'VLQ'], with veeyupro
I thought so
[member = 'ACE'], so will the gyro targeting be?
on the right analogue and on gyroscopes
The right analogue is only for rough and sharp turns, correction and main aiming on the gyroscope. The game doesn't need much accuracy. Controls feel simple and intuitive
* Rather than sweeping movements, like you are looking into the world, [using gyro requires] a quick movement of the wrists only.
* Hybrid of the gyro sensors and R-stick. You make big movements with the right stick and intuitively aim with the gyro.
* You can turn off the gyro sensors and use only the R-stick to control the camera

Apparently, this is an analogue of the "beak" of real squids:

Merry Squidmas! Check out the awesome holiday card one of our senior interns sent us this year. From the looks of it, he's been bitten by full-on squid mania!
Breakings news! We've just received solid evidence confirming that some of the octopus creatures can take on a humanoid form, just like the crazy squids! However, this has so far only been observed in females. Are the octo-males not capable of this amazing feat? We're assigning two interns to focus on answering this tantalizing question.

On the left is the squid of a normal person, on the right is the smoker's squid:

You may already know this, but squids have a total of 10 limbs. So when these creatures turn into humanoid form, two of their limbs become legs, two turn into arms, two form their hair, but… where do the other four go? Well, I guess we have our answer! By the way, this will be our last research report of the year. Talk to you guys in 2015!
Nintendo will bring Splatoon to Japan's Tokaigi Game Party with Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Mario Kart 8: http://www.4gamer.net/games/260/G026082/20141219055/
