Starting May 29, the Best Buy exclusive Wii U Splatoon bundle will be available in both the physical stores and on their website. This bundle includes the standard deluxe Wii U, a digital download code for Splatoon and a pre-installed Nintendo Land game. The suggested retail price of the bundle will be $299.99.
In Splatoon, take on the role of a colorful squid and fight for your group’s territory. Nintendo of America states in their press release:
“Splatoon overflows with lots of ways to play: Teams of players from around the world will enjoy the frenetic four-on-four online “Turf War” mode, which tasks players to cover the most ground with their team’s ink while using the Wii U GamePad controller to see a top-down view of the map as it is covered in ink in real-time. Ranked Battle, which will be made available a short time after launch, will offer skill-based online rule sets, while in “Battle Dojo,” players enjoy local one-on-one matches with friends. Splatoon also features a robust single-player campaign that cleverly teaches players how to splatter, swim, leap, hide and climb walls, all using ink to try to thwart the nefarious Octarian army. Players can also use Splatoon amiibo figures (sold separately) to gain access to special challenge stages that will make it possible to earn special gear not found elsewhere in the game.”
