This is biggest release for any game in Japan, ever. Will likely dictate their future plans. How is Splatoon 3 GAAS?

They can always launch a sequel 3-4 years down the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of updates are offered for free by a lot of developers. I had a discussion before, PPL were tying monetization with GAAS. Which I didn't understand.

The game has launched with all the game modes on the cart. Edited September 13, 2022 by radicaldude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case, Animal Crossing also qualifies as GaaS. So this is neither their first nor the most successful GaaS title. Animal crossing sold at least 3 times more.

Turd Turd Turd Posted September 13, 2022 Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 Technically, Mario Kart 8 and Smash should qualify as GAAS. Both are anyway wildly successfully, and are being supported even now post launch. I think Nintendo calls them DLC instead. Never played Splatoon, so no idea. 5 minutes ago, Vamos said: In that case, Animal Crossing also qualifies as GaaS. So this is neither their first nor the most successful GaaS title.

You can either purchase the DLC or access it with the NSO subscription. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, you can’t visit other people’s islands if you don't have NSO. 5 minutes ago, Bird Bird Bird said: Never played Splatoon, so no idea. Splatoon 2 also had Octo expansion, which is a single player DLC. Its multiplayer also keeps getting periodic free updates with new maps, weapons, soundtrack, etc. You should pick up Splatoon 3. The multiplayer turf wars are so addictive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of any type. They can start from there and aim to make it a cultural phenomenon in rest of the world as well. They should aim to overthrow stuff like Fortnite, Minecraft, Roblox etc stuff that kids play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0verlord Posted September 13, 2022 Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 How long is Nintendo direct? also Bayonetta experts - what’s the value of playing Bayonetta 2 multiple times at higher difficulties or is one playthrough enough?
