    Bought this for my son for Christmas. I’m sure he’ll love it, he talks about it all the time. Will not play it until then so cannot comment on game play yet. Purchase was fast and easy, so was curbside pickup, very convenient.

    The online multiplayer aspect of this game is pretty fun. Communication is limited if you're playing with randoms but that's probably to keep everything PG. I haven't played much single player since that doesn't get the heart racing as much as coming back from behind in any online game mode.

    Bought this game for my daughter and she loves it. It is challenging getting used to the motion controls, more difficult for me then it is for her! Not sure if this game offers split screen for two or more players but it should be an option if not...please make it Halo style capture the flag!

    Principal at school forgot to invite me when my son got an award & invited me last minute & I was unable to attend. So as a proud mother of my son I decided to buy him this game he has been looking at in every store. Thank you!

    A fun "shooter" that is kid appropriate

    Splatoon 2 is Nintendo's take on the shooter genre. It's cartoony, and fun and it's theme is appropriate for kids, however there is some depth there with regards to the various paint guns and the game play mechanic of winning for having more paint covering the arena than the other side. Overall, this game is surprisingly fun. It also has a single player mode that, while not remarkable, is fun to make your way through the various levels.

    30 hours in the game so far, lot of fun. Would recommend it. Matches are no more than 3 minutes, which makes it very casual-friendly. I think my only gripe with the game so far is Salmon Run's difficulty scaling. It ramps up very quickly. Currently struggling to stay in "profeshional."

    We own a few switches and got three copies of this. The kids and I have been playing this almost non stop together for days now. I can safely say from their delighted cheers and boos when they lose, that they are loving every minute. Its fun, clean, and kid friendly. Highly recommended!

    Splatoon 2 builds upon the success of the first game and actually changes quite a few things in terms of abilities and how a few things work, getting rid of all previous specials in favor of more team-oriented ones that don't make you invincible, which is overall a good thing. The game still plays the same in many ways, but being portable on the switch and the small changes that were made leads to it feeling pretty worth it to me.

    Like the title of the review says, this is a definite "must buy" for Switch owners. It's got so much more content and feels slightly more refined than the first Splatoon. If you liked the first or are considering picking this up, don't hesitate, just do it! You'll have a blast, I promise!

    My son and I have been playing the heck out of this game. The best way I can describe it is call of duty but with paint. The game is super kid friendly and has tons of options to upgrade your paint guns, clothes, etc. This is no doubt a one of a kind game and I highly recommend it.

    I played the original and thought it was a good game but it just didn't match up with how good I thought it could have been. This sequel is significantly more fun. So much so that my wife and I bought a second Switch and a second copy of the game so that we can play it online together

    This is a fun way to introduce your young kids to shooting games. I know some parents are concerned about blood and guts. Buy your kids this game and it'll provide them with hours of fun game play. Adults will also enjoy it but may get bored of the cartoon graphics.

    Bought this for my nephew as a birthday gift and he loves the game. It's pretty fast paced and colorful which keeps him engaged during play both on and offline. Fun songs to listen to while playing as well, which he loves.

    Splatoon 2 hits all the right spots the first game did and then some. Salmon Run is a difficult, yet welcome addition to the team, and much needed balances were made and now we're no logner living in the world of roller meta! If you loved splatoon 1, I'd highly recommend this game

    Addicting and fun. You will not put it down as online matches are either 3 to 5 minutes, depending on mode played, making it feel fresh as tons of weapons and clothing make it feel new every time. The colors and visuals are excellent to look at plus the soundtrack is Superb.

    Splatoon 2 is the follow up to one of the few bright spots from Nintendo's ill-fated Wii U. The sequel takes the approach "if it ain't broke don't fix it". I find it just as fun as the first, that being said the not "fixing" it does have a down side. They still haven't fix some of the issues people had with the first game, like MAP rotations. But overall it's a nice addition to the ever growing Nintendo Switch library

    Splatoon 2's biggest feature is it's variety from everything else on Switch, The story mode is extremely boring and repetitive but the online play is enough to be able to pick up and play once in awhile. The game is gorgeous overall but wouldn't recommend buying unless it's on sale.

    A lot of times people are afraid of getting in mulit player online, feeling they wont know what to do. But Splatoon 2 handles this well with a small story line to get you accustomed to all weapons and teaching you steps to get the most of your game and when you get on line and start a game it just feels like you known how to play all the time. This is one of those games that will stay with you as long as you have the Switch.
