[Bamboo Boy]

Let's roll it on!

 

[Shauni]

Can I use the Pro controller as the primary input, or does it have to be the gamepad?

Gamepad only, apparently.

 

[jorgejjvr]

My ID is my username

jorgejjvr

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

I'm drunk and ready to splat.

 

[GustyGardens]

I'm ready for this, guys. I'm working on my site while looking at the clock and listening to the Splatoon Global Testfire bassline on repeat. 15 Minutes! Let's go!

 

[Nosgotham]

Timeslots is crappy though. Couldn't it just be a full weekend?

Time slots aren't for your convenience. This isn't a demo to see if you like the game. It's a stress test

 

[J@hranimo]

Oh yeah! My NNID is my username but with an "a", but if you run across me you'll see my actual name which is a part of my username.

15 minutes! Prepare to get ink'd!

 

[SnakeSlashRO]

Timeslots is crappy though. Couldn't it just be a full weekend?

I bet its first come first serve... But like some Betas it could be extended?

 

[Zeyphersan]

Gamepad only, apparently.

For the demo only or full game too??

I'm drunk and ready to splat.

Shit, I should totally be drinking for this

 

[Javier]

All right, let's do this!

NNID: Javeman (Should be seen as "Javier" when online)

 

[Boney]

So we can play with friends?
Please add me guys! NNID boney64

 

[jmizzal]

15 mins baby lets go

J-Mizzal thats me

 

[GWX]

Less than 15 minutes now, can't freaking wait. I hope I can play at least one match :lol

 

[Kinsei]

So we can play with friends?

In the demo? I don't think we know yet.

 

[espher]

I'm ready for this, guys. I'm working on my site while looking at the clock and listening to the Splatoon Global Testfire bassline on repeat. 15 Minutes! Let's go!

I was hoping theme would loop but this bassline is OK.

 

[Cheesemeister]

Standing by...

 

[SatoAilDarko]

I have a feeling people are going to be underwhelmed. Anybody afraid they are going to have a negative reaction or expecting it?

Personally just the presentation of the game is enough for me to love it. Those scrolls in single-player that explore the history of the world make me super excited.

 

[DarkLegion]

Have the demo open, or open it after 11pm?

 

[Regiruler]

NNID Regiruler, but assuming it just uses names like mario kart, I'll just be "Kyle"

 

[BatDan]

I know I'm going to sound stupid, but is the server down for maintenance for everyone?

Oh and my NNID is Danarchy

 

[Kriken]

Dammit, can't get my recording device to work, oh well guess I'll rewatch someone else's footage :/

 

[mrlion]

Time slots aren't for your convenience. This isn't a demo to see if you like the game. It's a stress test

What should we call those who defend the stress tests when it really should be a demo for everyone to see if they would like the game?

 

[NotLiquid]

got myself four hours of sleep

lets do this

 

[tesqui]

Is this game 720 or 1080?

 

[-Horizon-]

Wii U is up and running. Ready to go.

 

[J@hranimo]

Is this game 720 or 1080?

720p and 60fps.

 

[fluttershy]

Is this game 720 or 1080?

720/60.

 

[March of the Crabs]

Jammin to this badass bass line with some popcorn and a couple of beers waiting for 11! let's find out if this thing is worth my $70! NNID is Lulzwagon if any of you guys get paired up with me and wanna laugh at my failure.

 

[Jintor]

time to wreck some serversssssss

 

[Regiruler]

I know I'm going to sound stupid, but is the server down for maintenance for everyone?

Oh and my NNID is Danarchy

It's said that ever since people tried since yesterday.

 

[DaBoss]

Don't jump the gun on sharing NNIDs for a demo that will likely not let you play with friends.

And my in-game name will be DaBoss, and I will be wearing the pre-purchased bonus clothing, so I think it will be easy to recognize me.

 

[Teknoman]

NNID: Teknoman

Of course heh. I guess i'll probably only be around for the first 1hr? I'll probably end up being sleep for tomorrow morning...and at work for the final.

Maybe they'll have some more leading up to launch.

 

[SolidSnakex]

The Treehouse link stream is up

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2LdOOLtPh0

It starts 5 minutes before the Testfire is supposed to go live.

 

[Jennings]

What should we call those who defend the stress tests when it really should be a demo for everyone to see if they would like the game?

Practical.

 

[BatDan]

It's said that ever since people tried since yesterday.

Thank you kindly. I need to pay more attention. Too much Smash today.

 

[Enforced]

10 more minutes.

 

[Chaos17]

Just took a snack, battery recharged, Let's roll it!

 

[Bjoern the Smexy]

Man, just for once I am so happy that I woke up before 5 am.

Can't wait for the servers to be open.

 

[Kinsei]

Here's an awesome cover of the theme if you want something to listen to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEWCY-dGTqs

 

[Dr. Buni]

I am ready for connection errors

 

[Yaranaika]

It just hit me that I'll be able to spray ink and swim through it as a squid, in 10 minutes from now.

 

[Pappasman]

So there is no way this is gonna work right?

 

[Seth Enosh]

I just changed my Mii name to GAFSethEno so hi anyone if you see me not sure if our Mii name or NNID will show up.

 

[mrlion]

Practical?

Practicals

 

[NamikazeBurst]

So excited! My Mii name is Namikaze, so tell me if you see me. Only can make it to this test and the last one, but that is good for me!

Wish we could do the tutorial before the test period, though.

 

[BassForever]

Gonna see if I can get a good connection playing in the basement, may have to relocate upstairs and play with headphones in my room

 

[Princess Viola]

10 minutes

i got the demo all loaded and everything

 

[Soul Lab]

I'm ready! NNID is Soul Lab

It's 5.00 am and I'm sitting here waiting for the Splatoon demo.
No more sanity

 

[Ricky 7]

10 mins left. =O

 

[jmizzal]

I better look at the manual while I wait so I can know how to play lol
