Editors Note: this was recorded in October, before we knew about Bluefin coming back to Splatoon 3, so it was a new map for me… Anyways if you enjoyed the video, leave a like and subscribe if you haven’t already!
it’s really weird to see how different the localizations of the first game were. the european version has ‘to me!’ and ‘nice!’ as signal buttons but the american version has ‘cmon!’ and ‘booyah!’, which eventually evolved into ‘this way!’ and ‘booyah!’ in all english versions. there’s other things too like changes to the battle finish screen and some dialogue, so its all really interesting
cool! I got a Wii U with Splatoon 1 back in January 2021, I'm level 35, nearly level 36, grinding for level 50!! I'd wish the server's would stay for longer tho!!!
I really would enjoy moray towers in splatoon 3. the maps are so flat compared to the previous games so I’d appreciate some vertical maps. I’d like to see all the maps from 1 and 2 appear again. They’re so much more fun than the infamous Tetris block shape. There’s actual variety.
Listen, I’m out here tryna race to LV 50, started from like lv 35 in september, and I’m still in a desperate frantic race to do it since I’m away from home and my wii u most of the week. Now, hate to say it as I might, there is an absolute 0% chance one can make it from 1 before the shutdown. But what I can say that I can advise ya yo do, from the experience of it all: don’t waste what time there is left. Make the most of it, it’s not a game worth missing out on. Even literally just OG mahi mahi makes it worth playing to the max. Even IF theres this pretendo thing to try out once its gone, idk if you’d go for that, so do give this game all the time ya can.
This game has nostalgia. A fun fact, that Australia played with Europe in the Splatfests during Splatoon 1, and most them did not even make sense. Here are the Splatfests Europe had in Splatoon 1: Rock vs. Pop, Eating vs. Sleeping, North Pole vs. South Pole, Singing vs. Dancing, Messy vs. Tidy, Cats vs. Dogs, Zombie vs. Ghost, Delicious vs. Disgusting (Pineapple pizza), Fit vs. Rich, Barbarian vs. Ninja, Spongebob vs. Patrick, Fancy Party vs. Costume Party, World Tour vs. Space Adventure, and Callie vs. Marie.
I only started playing Splatoon with the third installment since I wasn't interested in the series until 2021 when 3 was announced. I only went back and bought Splatoon 2 digitally for Octo Expansion when Side Order's second trailer was unveiled in September 2023. And I never owned a Wii U.
I got it back in splatoon 2’s early days when the original game still existed. 5 years and I still haven’t managed to play the original. I only have a few more months left. It would be neat if they ported it to the switch but that is not gonna happen. I really do want to go back to the splatoon 1 and 2 days where the game was so incredibly chaotic and wonky. Now they’re actually trying to make the game balanced so we can’t get double digit tenta missiles anymore.
amazing that people are still playing this was a huge part of my childhood. shame i cant go back for one match as wiiu gamepads are hard to come across nowadays
There's actually a secret weapon in this game that was removed from future entries. The Dual-Squelcher. It's like the jet squelcher, but with 5% less range and a better firing rate. Yeah, it was kinda pointless. Now we have the splattershot nova that does the same thing. Also the story mode is cool.
The signal was actually always booyah in other regions. My region has C'mon and booyah, while some other region (i cant remember which) has the standard this way and booyah
“I never owned a Wii U” Dog is literally me except he actually got a Wii U and I still don’t have one Even if I bought one now it’s close to the Wii U server shutdown so I wouldn’t be able to enjoy Splatoon for very long other than the story mode Also I got Splatoon 2 like a year after it released and have been a hardcore Splatoon fan ever since, sucks I wasn’t able to play the first Splatoon but on the bright side I preordered Splatoon 2s octo expansion and the two dlcs for Splatoon 3 on the day they were both announced but I wasted so much time on Splatoon 2 with private battles I barely got many levels and I’ve been busy a lot to even play much Splatoon 3 But still Splatoon is my favorite game series from Nintendo
I got my wii u in Christmas of 2020 so I can play Splatoon 1 and its the best splatoon in my opinion and now since the nintendo network servers are down I modded my wii u so I can use pretendo (you dont have to mod to use pretendo just if you want to keep your saves in another account since you cant use a account linked to nintendo network for pretendo) so I can keep playing Splatoon 1
Splatoon 4 be on the wii U as april fools in like 2027-2029 would be the biggest troll and would make people decide if it's worth it for the newest installment or they just wait for Splatoon 5 etc, if they continue the series.
It feels like a fever dream I miss splatoon 1 it’s like completely different from s3 no splatanas a,brellas n DUALIES to wack you ever corner I miss splatoon 1 SO much I just wish I could play it again.
Recon? Broken? Ha, good one! 🤣 Also this is a _buffed_ version of the ability. Originally the effect would immediately end the moment you stepped out of spawn AND it didn't even show the enemy's weapons. Buffed or not, it's an absolutely worthless ability since conditions change way too rapidly for info acquired at spawn to matter. It wasn't even useful in competitive mode since Echolocator and callouts were plenty effective while still in the fray.
I’ve been playing Splatoon 1 for years and I finally got a switch recently to play the third installment. Now I’m free from the ticking time bomb of Nintendo shutting down the online services
I recently got a Wii U Japanese region version and I don’t think was a terrible idea since heard modding exists and never had a Wii U and didn’t know it was exclusively on Wii U, excited it has Wii mode!! Always wanted to play Splatoon so it was incredible but I only made it to tutorial, haha! I hope my sisters love it just as much as me by time their bday comes around next month despite us just getting a switch for early Xmas present pft, excited!!!!
I recently played Splatoon for the first time. Yes, Splatoon, the original Wii U Wonder. Difference for me is it’s my first real experience with Splatoon… haven’t played 2 or 3 yet.
Like 3 months ago i triyed playing Splatoon 1 but it dont let me go in the match, i wat thinking server already was down. Its right? (Sorry for my English but im Italian)
I remember begging my mum to buy a WII U for Splatoon but she said no 😂 I was okay with online gameplay videos for a bit but then talked myself out of wanting a WII U bc I gaslit myself into being too scared I eventually forgot about it for a while until I heard about Splatoon 2, and then forgot about it again and finally got to plat my first Splatoon game in Dec. 2018
Since you bought the Wii U you should homebrew it and use it as a emulator. It can play games from the Wii, GameCube, N64 and more. Anytime I want to play old console games I’ll use the Wii U instead of my pc. It’s just a really good emulator
im new to splatoon game. and there's not much different to splatoon 3 and this aint it? it looks similar and splatoon 1 actually looks better the map doesnt look boring.

Thanks to this video I found out squid jump exists… Splatoon 2 and 3 are missing out 😔
so true... so so true... 😔
you unlock the other gamepad games by the Splatoon amiibo of the Inkling boy, girl, and Squid (Splatoon 1 versions)
You think they're missing out on Squid Jump? What about the other games like Squid Beats (the original) or Squid Racing or Squid Volleyball
I hope that they bring back the Gamepad games and the Squid Jump in Splatoon 4
What if Nintendo brings back the multiplayer mode with the balloons
it’s really weird to see how different the localizations of the first game were. the european version has ‘to me!’ and ‘nice!’ as signal buttons but the american version has ‘cmon!’ and ‘booyah!’, which eventually evolved into ‘this way!’ and ‘booyah!’ in all english versions.
there’s other things too like changes to the battle finish screen and some dialogue, so its all really interesting
The American version took a lot of liberties with the adaptations, that's why the european translation it's often being considered as the better one
The shops are still called the booyah base
Splatoon 1 is so much nostalgic.
Nice to see, that even now there are players, who want to experience it for the first time.
cool! I got a Wii U with Splatoon 1 back in January 2021, I'm level 35, nearly level 36, grinding for level 50!! I'd wish the server's would stay for longer tho!!!
don’t we all 😔
I remeber when i was younger getting level 50 feeling really accomplished
@@MoshPlayzI had the will U for for years but I never got splatoon 1 I got it in 2022
There's Pretendo so you can still play online :)
I really would enjoy moray towers in splatoon 3. the maps are so flat compared to the previous games so I’d appreciate some vertical maps. I’d like to see all the maps from 1 and 2 appear again. They’re so much more fun than the infamous Tetris block shape. There’s actual variety.
the fact that moray towers is probably one of the better designed maps than most of the splatoon 3 maps is wild
at least it's in Splatoon 2 and... smash bros
moray towers in 2 was an annoying for me tbh but with the specials (especially zipcaster) i can see it being much more fun in 3

Literally the same but I bought 2 at GameStop cuz it was like $20

Octo expansion is worth it. I loved it so much. Wish I could lose my memory and play it again.
@@KE-yq2eg I actually played through Octo Expansion and I can agree with your sentence.
Wii u splatoon was pretty sick ngl lol, the maps were amazing
amazing that people are still playing this was a huge part of my childhood. shame i cant go back for one match as wiiu gamepads are hard to come across nowadays
I remember playing this game all them years ago. Thanks for the nostagia.
wow what a cool game they should make a sequel
i hope they make a sequel. if they do, i really hope theres a special that lets u send missiles to the other team
@@MoshPlayz and I really hope they make a sequel to the sequel on the same console generation just for the lols.
3:56 for me i have C'mon! and Booyah! i didn't know it was that different for different people!
Depends on the region
It's c'mon and booyah in the US
ive never owned a wii u until my last birthday, so i can relate!/pos
good video!
OMG I just bought a Wii u with splatoon 1 yesterday are you kidding me
There's actually a secret weapon in this game that was removed from future entries. The Dual-Squelcher. It's like the jet squelcher, but with 5% less range and a better firing rate.
Yeah, it was kinda pointless. Now we have the splattershot nova that does the same thing.
Also the story mode is cool.
I've seen that! I'll have to try it when I unlock it 👀
I do believe the dualie squelchers replaced the dual squelcher.
0:47 … I subscribed just for that
The signal was actually always booyah in other regions. My region has C'mon and booyah, while some other region (i cant remember which) has the standard this way and booyah
I’m gonna get a Wii U with splatoon for Christmas. I’m gonna hope I can get to lvl 10 and AT least get to c+
Meowww
Welcome to Splatoon 1 where I started my "Sneaking" Mosh
After a 40 lose streak in splatoon 3 I wish I played splatoon 1 😥
A mosh upload no way 😳 jkjk good vid mosh :)
“I never owned a Wii U”
Dog is literally me except he actually got a Wii U and I still don’t have one
Even if I bought one now it’s close to the Wii U server shutdown so I wouldn’t be able to enjoy Splatoon for very long other than the story mode
Also I got Splatoon 2 like a year after it released and have been a hardcore Splatoon fan ever since, sucks I wasn’t able to play the first Splatoon but on the bright side I preordered Splatoon 2s octo expansion and the two dlcs for Splatoon 3 on the day they were both announced but I wasted so much time on Splatoon 2 with private battles I barely got many levels and I’ve been busy a lot to even play much Splatoon 3
But still Splatoon is my favorite game series from Nintendo
The Australian legend IS BACKK
Almost 2024 in four more hours
Splatoon was my first video game.
I got my wii u in Christmas of 2020 so I can play Splatoon 1 and its the best splatoon in my opinion and now since the nintendo network servers are down I modded my wii u so I can use pretendo (you dont have to mod to use pretendo just if you want to keep your saves in another account since you cant use a account linked to nintendo network for pretendo) so I can keep playing Splatoon 1
Have you played through Octo Valley ? I've only seen full playthroughs, but it looks so nice.
Im a Og and played spaltoon 1 the best game ever made in my heart i was 9 to 12 man good times now im 18 xd
Splatoon 4 be on the wii U as april fools in like 2027-2029 would be the biggest troll and would make people decide if it's worth it for the newest installment or they just wait for Splatoon 5 etc, if they continue the series.

Use pretendo :) u can play Splatoon after 2024 with pretendo
Its not going to be same unfortunately; I think there will be a massive drop off
@@bl4z648it's super popular
I recently played Splatoon for the first time. Yes, Splatoon, the original Wii U Wonder. Difference for me is it’s my first real experience with Splatoon… haven’t played 2 or 3 yet.
I played Splatoon when it first came out. I cried when the disk broke
@@trollguy2616 Ah dang, sorry you cried tollguy!
for me splatoon 1 has the best soundtracks :)
Didnt you play the Splatoon 2020 Demo?
funny thing is that I also played the first Splatoon for the first time this year (2023)
welcome to the club, the game better than the others
Like 3 months ago i triyed playing Splatoon 1 but it dont let me go in the match, i wat thinking server already was down. Its right? (Sorry for my English but im Italian)
Splatoon will be my best memory of my childhood
Love that I'm still playing splatoon 1 online in 2024 due to Pretendo
nostalgic, first real game i played and loved my account is maxed sad to see it go
I remember begging my mum to buy a WII U for Splatoon but she said no 😂 I was okay with online gameplay videos for a bit but then talked myself out of wanting a WII U bc I gaslit myself into being too scared
I eventually forgot about it for a while until I heard about Splatoon 2, and then forgot about it again and finally got to plat my first Splatoon game in Dec. 2018
I bought a Wii U 2 weeks ago and tried to play splattoon on it but I only manage to get 3 games in 3 hours… this is deserted … in my zone I guess.
Thank god there's Pretendo so we can still play! :D
splatoon 1 was literally my childhood 😭
I wish I played splatoon 1 because I love Callie and Marie. I’m very sad I never played it
I've never played splatoon 1 and it makes me sad that I will never be able to
the splatoon 1 online servers are going to shut down on april 8th 2024 at 7pm edt usa time!
Did you have to pay for the turf wars or not?
9:45 what are you talking about
WiiU Gamepad 🗣
Since you bought the Wii U you should homebrew it and use it as a emulator. It can play games from the Wii, GameCube, N64 and more. Anytime I want to play old console games I’ll use the Wii U instead of my pc. It’s just a really good emulator
i got my Wii u in tje sommer and so i could play the first Splatoon its so fun
And now in one month, it will be gone😢
Mosh has officially fell off🗿
(Thanks to Moray Towers)
i have indeed fallen off moray towers 💀
Please use the .52 gal
You forgot to do story mode!!!
Wii u slander will not be tolerated
Don't hate splatoon 1 ! ):
I have my will u am play one more time
I never played spatoon one either
And never will
im new to splatoon game. and there's not much different to splatoon 3 and this aint it? it looks similar and splatoon 1 actually looks better the map doesnt look boring.
Peoples who started splatoon since it came out (like my comment)
Transfer it to mobile games
Specials are not overpowered, u juat need to git gud
