⬆️ losing his mind from the lack of side order content

#side order #splatoon #not a theory #no actually its august 16th where is it #i have been waiting the whole day #i have been DISTRACTED from my school work. #this is nintendo's fault #definitely not mine for not being able to shut up about side order #watch them not even make a trailer and just post something on twitter #or they post a drizzle season trailer but no side order info #and the update sucks and its like two weapons and five new gear items #and neither of the weapons are splatanas or stringers #and they announce big run but no new bosses or king salmonids

Some exciting Salmon Run announcements for Sizzle Season 2023

Today's official Splatoon twitter posts were entirely focused on Salmon Run, and there's some juicy stuff here, starting with the new Stage, Jammin' Salmon Junction!

It's jammin' because it's set by a massive musical venue, built by the Salmonids by the abandoned ruins of an old highway. The Stage is largely split into two halves, with not a lot of places where you can move between them.

Low Tide reveals a path between the two roads, putting the basket which is where the basket is located. I suspect the big challenge of this stage is going to be controlling the roads, as there are a lot of Bosses who could potentially gum them up and shield their ranged compatriots in the process.

Now for some very fun news, we've got a Big Run incoming! The date is June 10th, 12AM UTC, to June 12th, 12AM UTC and it is set on Undertow Spillway. But that's not all: Starting with this one, Scale rewards gained from King Salmonids during Big Runs are DOUBLED!

That's not the only thing either, Eggstra Work is returning on July 1st, and this time with online matchmaking, pairing you up with other players based on your high score, something I am very curious to see how it will shake out.

Finally, I'd just like to remind you all that later tonight, in about eleven and a half hours at the time of writing, there is an All-Grizzco Weapons Rotation!

These do not happen frequently, so make sure not to miss it!

Sizzle Season '24 Predictions/Hopes/Rambles

I figure I should probably actually write out my predictions right now since Fresh '24 threw us a bit of a curveball with the earlier than expected trailer- if Sizzle '24 is anything like that, its trailer might come out as early as later this morning. Or it could be after the Splatfest like usual. But just to be safe.

Quick warning that this will cover quite a few datamined things, if you don't wanna be spoiled on that for whatever reason.

● Not necessarily a prediction but I really hope that this isn't truly the final Season.

● That being said, if it is the final Season, I am hoping it is like ACNH's final major update where they just really pop off with new shit to do and collect. Probably won't come with a DLC like ACNH since Side Order's already out (unless they surprise us with Wave 3+4 turning out to not be false speculation), but they could (and hopefully do) go all out with main-game additions like NH did.

● Final Big Run announcement, but not Final Fest yet. I think they'll save Final Fest news till closer to the *end* end.

● We know that there is a new Stringer_Explosion and Saber_Heavy (Splatana) main weapon coming at some point, if you ask me I'd say they're almost certainly Sizzle '24, or whatever the final season may be IF it's not Sizzle '24, BUT-

Dataminers looking through Fresh '24 have found two MORE main weapons now in the files. They have not identified what Classes they are yet afaik, beyond the fact that they're of some existing Classes, no brand new Class if you were hoping for that.

So the question here is, where are those weps gonna be? There are many possibilities, and all of them I find believable on some level:      • Sizzle '24 is not the final Season, the unidentified new weps are coming in Sizzle '24-- Saber_Heavy and Stringer_Explosion may be saved for the true final Season.      • They may not be saving Saber_Heavy and Stringer_Explosion for any particular time and they could release now even if its not the final-- unidentified weps saved for another Season.      • A mix of them (as in only Saber_Heavy + one unidentified, or only Stringer_Explosion + one unidentified).      • They could do something they've never done before (in 3, 3 is my first Splatoon so I dunno if 1 and 2 did more than two main weps at a time) until now and throw ALL FOUR at us in one Season.

● And what about second kits for everything? IF this is the last major update I can see two possibilities here:      • They release any remaining kits in minor updates in the coming months.      • They actually just cram all remaining second kits in here, including the second kits for main weps introduced in the same Season, something they haven't done before (in 3).

● DID YOU KNOW the Special Splatfest dataminers found when Special Fests first started, codenamed "SWEET", must have been a typo? It appears the name is now "SWEAT". SummerFest or something? Probably not FinalFest, I doubt they would want dataminers seeing FinalFest's codename so early.

● King Salmonid "BigBalloon" FINALLY. Dataminers in Chill '23 said apparently BigBalloon had a model and badges in the resource size table as of that Season, so he MUST be finally done by *now*, right?

● The Boss Salmonids that have been in the files are likely coming now too. Whether they're Night Wave or not remains to be seen. They must be coming though, because not only are "Balloon", "Ghost", and "Wheel" still in the files, but dataminers found three MORE added in Chill '23. "Silo" "Fish" and "Stick". The fact that the older ones remain and even more were added on indicates that new Bosses likely are not scrapped and are not *going* to be scrapped either! (?)

● Is... is Underground dead, though? I've never been completely sure. IF it isn't then it's possible that some or even all of those Bosses could be Underground exclusive.

● Possible expansion to Side Order? They could do all sorts of stuff, cmon Ninty. ... I should clean up and post my ideas real quick too.

● Possibly even more clothes adjustment options, though I don't really know what they could do.

● PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE new character customization options, even just a handful of new haircuts.

● Possibly even more SR suits? I would love a purple Slopsuit, I edited one based on Saint's [Row] Purple and I want it to be real so badly.

● Possibly hints or outright statements of content extension or at least Splatfest (and/or Big Run) extension and/or reruns of Splatfests and Big Runs after the end of the lifespan.

I feel like these (at least reruns) will happen anyway, I just mean like hints/confirmations within the trailer itself or Twitter reveals for Sizzle '24, as opposed to sometime much later.

● Oh, oh, almost forgot-- amiibos announced soon? Could be sometime mid-season but if this update is huge like NH and they wanna hype it up similarly, they might announce the amiibos in the trailer or Twitter reveals before the Season actually starts.
