Get ready to start inking with Splatoon this summer in Canada!

Nintendo News: Start Inking with Splatoon This Summer!

Nintendo is inviting you and your family to get messy! We’re travelling across Canada so you can try Nintendo’s new action game, Splatoon, only for the Wii U console. Go head-to-head with a friend and splatter your way to victory. Switch from human form to squid form at any time to swim faster in your coloured ink or hide from your enemies. The more of your coloured ink the ground is covered with, the bigger your advantage. Don’t miss out: Start Inking!

Also at the Splatoon Splatter truck, you have the chance to enter a draw to win a Splatoon Prize Pack. Each week we will be drawing for two lucky winners to take home: a packaged version of Splatoon, a Splatoon amiibo 3-pack, and a Splatoon-themed skin to customize your Wii U GamePad controller.
