I remember E3 2014 so very fondly because of this "weird tech demo from the Animal Crossing team". Everytime the camera panned towards the Splatoon matches, it was so hard to pull it away. I even recall the camera lingering to see the last moments of a match to then switch over to a Miyamoto interview. My second most fond Splatoon memory was the "head of Squid Research Lab" giving tearful closing remarks for a big Splatoon tournament in Japan. Thanking fans for playing the game and he hopes that a Splatoon will be on the way if it's in the cards. And as we can see, the head of Squid Research Lab and the fans got their wish.

"And kept sea slugs out of the game" Everyone: Q.C Cumber Flow: *am i a fucking joke to you?*

Subscribed recently. I'm always interested in video game history and you have really nice and quick videos that explain the essentials. I hope your channel grows quickly, you deserve it. I was just wondering if you watched the GDC talk about Splatoon since it was not listed as a source. I'm not sure if it had any additional information that wasn't covered here but it had some video of the tofu prototype. I recommend watching it if you haven't already. Keep up the good work!

[@ThomasGameDocs]

Yeah, I only came across it _after_ making the video, so I was kind of kicking myself for not being able to include that tofu prototype footage... Glad you enjoyed the video, though, and thanks for subscribing!

still come back to this video and love it

[@kmcamesome3799]

Having never played Splatoon(Never got a Wii U and don't have a Switch) i thought this video was really good! (Any hints what the next video will be about?)

[@ThomasGameDocs]

Next video will be a shorter one about Brain Training to try to keep me sane ;) After that, it'll be Animal Crossing, and then after _that_ it'll probably be either Ace Attorney or Tomodachi Life, possibly Danganronpa. Glad you enjoyed the video, by the way!

[@kmcamesome3799]

@@ThomasGameDocs Brain Training? Oh! Those Nintendo fun learning DS games? I wish i would have played those...Really looking forward to the Animal Crossing one!(Been a fan of Animal Crossing since the first one came to America!)

[@ThomasGameDocs]

I was only just born when the first AC game came to America, so I didn't have much chance to play it, haha! (though not living in America didn't help, either...)
