Blog:What If Splatoon came out for the Nintendo 64

I dont really know what to say, but i thought this would be interesting since the N64 controller has all the buttons you would need and i just like the game.

Controls
the controls would be: Z: fire weapon R: Sub weapon L: turn into squid C Buttons: camera control D-Pad: signals/map A:Jump/Confirm B:Cancel/reset camera Start: equipment screen/pause menu

Gameplay(I don’t know what else to call this section)
Turf Wars would be 2 on 2 or 1 on 1 local multiplayer or a 4 player mode where everyone has a different ink color. because the n64 can’t play online. Hero Mode would be on a separate cartridge due to size limitations. It would support the Rumble Pak and the Controller Pak as well as the Transfer Pak to update itself via updates on Game Boy cartridges(that’s probably too unrealistic though) It would probably have a lot of things missing due to limitations.

Release Date
It would have released on May 28th 1999.

Commercials
2 people are walking on the beach when they see 2 brightly colored squids(rendered in cgi). Thinking they are are an endangered species, they start walking towards them so they can put them back into the ocean. Suddenly the squids turn back into kid form(for lack of a better word) and shoot their ink guns at the people and the people run away. It switches to footage of the game while a narrator says “Wield squidkid power in Splatoon as you try to cover the most ground with your color(switches to a picture of the box). Exclusively on Nintendo 64! The commercial ends with a spinning Nintendo 64 logo. Commercial 2 A person looks out at the giant yard of the mansion they just bought. The fence, shed, walkway, and patio all need to be painted, so they set out 4 cans of paint with different colors, open them, and then they go to call some painters. 4 inklings walk by and see the cans of paint and wide open unpainted area. Thinking this is a new turf war stage, they fill up their weapons and start. Suddenly the owner comes back out, and sees the yard, now covered in paint. The person yells. it switches to footage of the game while a narrator says "compete with your friends to see who can cover the stage with the most of your color in Splatoon(switches to a picture of the box). Exclusively on Nintendo 64!" and the commercial ends with a spinning N64 logo.
