Really. Seeing the whole grand fest and Nintendo's wrap up video for all the splatfests just... oh my heart. Its so clear to me the team behind Splatoon loves this game. I had an absolute blast. I spent so much time playing the grand fest, I even called my mom about it. I rambled to her about the idols, how cool the tricolor stage was, I didn't even care who won I just enjoyed every moment of it.
She told me that was the happiest she'd heard me in a while.
Splatoon has so much lore, so many little details... I just love how much care was put into the series as a whole. It really beat the odds, too. It came out on the Wii U, and iirc Nintendo didn't expect it to grow that much. But it blew up into an amazing game series. Its one of my favorites of all time. And it just makes me so happy to see how deeply the Splatoon team and Nintendo care about it. I'm so happy I got to experience all of it.
