CGR Undertow - SPLATOON review for Nintendo Wii U

Splatoon review. http://www.ClassicGameRoom.com Shop CGR shirts & mugs! http://www.CGRstore.com Classic Game Room presents a CGR Undertow video review of Splatoon for Wii U, developed by Nintendo EAD and published by Nintendo. Splatoon marks the first time Nintendo's rolled out a new high-profile, first-party IP since Pikmin on the GameCube back in 2001. That game was an RPS, but tweaked, distorted, and altered into something that diverged wildly from genre conventions and was distinctly and unmistakably a Nintendo game. Splatoon, 14 years later, follows suit almost to the letter, mirthfully subverting the expectations that the phrase "4-on-4 online shooter" would conjure up by making the game less about actually shooting enemies and more about covering as much real estate as possible with splatters of colorful ink. This video review features video gameplay footage of Splatoon for Wii U and audio commentary from Classic Game Room's TJ.
