Yep, what mattered this time were three things: What was, what is, and what will be... That might sound cheesy, but I thought it was nice to put there lol.
To be fair, Splatoon 3 didn’t have its issues. The connection issues, the boring and restrictive maps, three team Splatfests, weird weapon kits and the grind for the Catalog and Sheldon Coupons. I hope Nintendo sees Team Past’s victory as a sign that we’d like to go back to what worked in 1 & 2 and not try to be the next Fortnite or CoD. I hope nothing from 3 gets pushed into 4.
Ugh. Thank you for the memories Splatoon 3. My brother passed away this year 5 days before he was supposed turn 21, he never made it to the final splatfest with me but he would’ve absolutely chosen team past. He was one who got Splatoon 1 on the wii u and if he had never gotten it, I wouldn’t be here. It’s now my turn to keep his legacy alive and keep playing all future iterations. Thank you for everything Splatoon 3, fastest 2 years of my life.
I am sorry for your loss, all my deep condolences, but i am happy you and your brother probably made beautiful memories together with the Splatoon games!!! Please keep yourself with the rest of your family and friends, and remember that we are herr to support you emotionally and cheer for you! Please keep it up, and don't be afraid to open up to your emotions with your loved ones and your friends, and seek help if it gets too heavy for you. But please, remember he would have wanted you to be happy! ❤
I remember coming home from elementary to get straight on Splatoon on my Nintendo Wii U 😭 Oh the simpler times. I just can’t believe it over… again… it really hits different now 8 years later huh 😭😭😭😭
I started with Splatoon in middle school, and now as a college graduate, picking between the past, present, or future was a theme that resonated with the season of life I’m in ❤
@@MokuTomLol kinda same. I played 1 & 2 religiously but 3 came out at a bad time for me and i just never got it. I wanna do the singleplayer at least but geez.
To everyone in comments who hasn’t got the game, we should set up a gofundme for you guys because it is CRIMINAL that you be forced to miss out on the shenanigans.
@@KyrosnoProductions No there is no reason to bring out Splatoon 4 on the Switch. Also would be way to soon. The time between 2 and 3 was roughly 5 years.
I really mean it. Thank you Splatoon. If I never tried out this game on my crusty Wii U back in late 2016.. I wouldn't have been here today, admiring the memories of our previous Splatfests, and I wouldn't have got Splatoon 3. I wouldn't have played Side Order, or Octo Expansion, and all the other wonderful story modes. This franchise truly changed me, and I don't know where I would be without it. ❤
This is emotional, I started my Splatoon adventure in 2015, when I was 9 years old, and now it’s 2024, and I’m 18 years old, and it has been a journey to see how far this franchise has come in just 9 years, I’m so happy this franchise is still going today, and hope to see more in the future
It feels like just yesterday I was watching the Anarchy Rainbow release video so amazed… two years later and it’s the same goodbye video we got like in Splatoon 2… goodbye splatoon 3
I remember when anarchy rainbow dropped I wouldn’t stop re playing it and even now it’s still a huge hit the moment I first heard it I knew it sounded so nostalgic
@@AnxiousWLF Unless they pull a Splatoon 2 again and create another new Splatfest for Mario's 40th anniversary or something lol (holy crap we're already just about at the 40th anniversary what?? Feels like the 35th JUST happened and I'm still riding some of the waves of it, WHERE HAS TIME GONE??).
Still amazing to see this started from Satoru Iwata and everyone at Nintendo who helped with making this series become so much more. No matter where this series goes from here on, im sure it'll lead to even more creative and wonderful ideas...and to those during Grand Fest whether you won or lost, thank you. You helped give this series a chance back when no one thought it would make it far.
“Why are we here? For what purpose do we exist? We must not dwell on these questions. We can merely trust in the will of the universe and spend our days and nights in harmony with the world, celebrating this festival called Life.” - Splatoon Thank you for the memories, and the friendship we made along the way.
You’ll never truly know how much Splatoon as a series has inspired me. I picked up Splatoon in the 5th grade, now it’s my last year of high school. Splatoon inspired me to go into digital media, and now that career path is about to open up to me. Thank you, for everything these games have done for me, thank for the fun times, and most of all, thank you for unironically making me the person I am today. Stay fresh!
@@icy9001because Callie and Marie stans are the biggest sweat lords and they got real matches. I was in present and literally 80% of my matches were mirrors
I missed every splatfest before the grand fest due to either not having the games or being busy, but I set aside this entire weekend to just play Splatoon. That experience, whether it was playing in the actual event or just listening to the concerts… it was magical and made me feel nostalgic for a series I’m relatively new to. Thank you to the devs for the last 9 years of Splatoon, and here’s to many more!
Same dude, same! I'm new into the world of Splatoon, but I bought Splatoon 3 for the Grand Festival and for the experience of playing the game for the first time and it was so much fun!!
I missed so many of them due to becoming an adult and just losing my free time. But wow this game has made such an impact on my life and it was so fun playing Grand Festival!!!!
@@chrisjf4989 nothing makes me happier than seeing new players enjoying the game I suppose we all must look a little little weird and listening to gargle sound and calling in music, but nothing beats calamari inklantation
We are all here now, looking at the great memories we had for the past 2 years. Let's all appreciate the happiness splatoon gave us and let's look forward to what will happen next in the future
These 2 years of splatoon 3 went by really quick. I guess time really flies when you are having fun. Thank you nintendo and never stop making great games
I was bad about myself, Big Man, and Off the Hook for my bad behavior, loss, and harassment Now change things to make yourself feel better by time traveling in the past!
@@warriorking9885yeah I still remember staying up late beating almost the entirety of story mode, then the next day gaming my heart out at the final parts.
I'm not even a huge Splatoon player, but I still remember how fun it was to jump into the game when there was a splatfest going on, and you see all this fan art and competitive spirit between teams to try and get the win for their side in what's essentially a light hearted poll question. Good times.
The “Thank You” of Splatoon 3! This melts our hearts and we’re crying right now! So heartwarming! 😭 Goodbye and Thank you, Splatoon 3 for 2 years of gaming for you guys
@@FreshFalcon how long was it between the final splat 2 update and the release of splat 3? It felt like a long time and i played after the last splatfest happened
My partner and i started playing Splatoon 1 back in 2015. Our first Splatfest was Pirates vs Ninjas and both of us were hooked. We spent weeks switching off the WiiU just to have turns playing. Both of us played the Grandfest and like. Almost every Splatfest thia time around. And it's safe to say this will continue being a staple for us. I've got such a fondness for this series. So thank you for just existing. It means a lot to me
It's been 9 years.... I was 9 years old when cuttlefish recruited me to save the great zapfish for the very first time. I'm 18 and I've saved him and the world multiple times. And had a lot of fun along the way. Thank you guys for everything... I'm happy to be here as I'm staring in Awe that I got to have these great moments.
I was 13 when I bought splatoon 1 in 2016 and although I played 1 splatfest which was the last one of callie and Marie I saw that I started to like the franchise I bought 2 in 2018 I played about 6 or 7 splatfests and I enjoyed it a lot. I bought 3 two days after its release and played 18 of the 19 splatfests.
Thank you for everything and bringing people together, Splatoon. The nights I've spent playing these Splatfests with my friends are something I will never forget. This series really is so special
Second this. I'm upset Future didn't get a single category, but I expected Past to come out on top. All my friends were on Past anyway so I'll take it 😂 Gg everyone!
I cried watching this, after all these years, after the things we went through, the fights between idols, the "lose streak" and unfunny jokes through most of the game's life-span. Now we are here, enjoying the last moments of this game, thanks for everything...
I remember on February 2021 watching the direct and seeing Splatoon 3 for the first time. It was so insane.. The fact that was 3 years ago blows my mind and Splatoon in general has changed my life, thank you for everything.
It was everything i wanted and more. Still can't believe we have all 3 cities in one game. and they really went all out during this Grand Splatfest, I actually go a bit teary-eyed seeing every idol actually perform all of their songs. AND THEY LET US CHEER AND EVERYTHING
This series has been with me through some of my toughest times. I started with 2, and I've moved houses 4 times since them, dealing with both my school life and my horrendous personal life. Splatoon was there for all of it. Thank you, Nintendo.
@@RaychAgent4EVaas someone from team Present, I thought you guys were going to win before halftime. I don’t think any of us expected the team Past sweep. Gg’s to everyone who participated.
I know that the community has its ups and downs, but this franchise will truly mean something very important to me and I'm glad I was able to fully experience the whole thing from start to finish this time as well.
You know what. When all is said and done, I’m glad I was able to be there for the games’ swan song this time. I missed Splatocalypse back in 2019 and to this day I’m still annoyed that I was unable to play it. So when 3 launched I swore to play the Final Fest this time around, no matter what. And I’m glad to say, Grand Festival surpassed my expectations in every conceivable way, and made me feel like I made up for missing Splatoon 2’s Finale all those years ago. To close, thanks Splatoon 3. Stay Fresh, Don’t Get Cooked, and I’ll Catch Ya Later.
Splatoon, we love you. You bring people together. Friends, family, community. You are truly special. Thank you for everything Splatoon 3. It was, the most special thing anyone could have asked for. Stay fresh.
Splatfests werent my favorite thing in terms of just overall gameplay but the environment Nintendo provides EVERY. TIME. always has been phenomenal. Splatoon 3 shows they continued to outdo themselves all the way up to the breathtaking Grand Festival. Easily the most fun I have had with the game. Thank you Nintendo for a simply unforgettable experience.
Nintendo ya did it again, I wake up find a notification and say "hu, it from nintendo" and I realized and nearly scream "ITS ABOUT SPLATOON!" I watch it, and start crying my eyes out and start thinking of the start of MY splatoon journey, and a little 8 year old pops up in my mind, and I smile from ear to ear, thank you nintendo fo the best game I've ever played.
I can't believe it's truly over. I hope Splatoon 4 comes out soon because I'm gonna miss having splatfests again (but also, devs please take your time, we want this game to be the best it can be!)
As somebody who has played Splatoon 3 since its release, the memories throughout this video suddenly flowed back to me. I lost the game a couple of times (which I couldn't experience every single Splatfest) but the ones I did experience were some of the most fun times I've ever had. I remember two years ago, the me from that long ago wouldn't have seen this day coming. But now, the day has arrived. I will love this game forever, and I hope the franchise continues to see the light of day.
Out of the nine years of Splatoon I've played, Splatoon 3 has probably been the most fun. In just these past two years, I've made so many cool new friends and accomplished so many things I've never thought possible before. Splatoon is more than just a video game to me. It's a community of some of the most caring people I've ever met. Thank you so much!!!
I am genuinely shocked past won I never thought we would win I’m so proud and happy as someone who’s participated in Callie vs Marie it has me in tears I got splatoon 1 so late and never got to actually PLAY any splatfests except vote for the final fest I went on vacation during the time and barley knew splatoon 2 in the golden era now I finally get to grow up with splatoon 3 and maybe in a year or more to come this will get more nostalgic
There were some god tier splatoon gamers that absolutely dominated the battles for team past (guessing since they played during splatoon 1). Still had a great time and won my first 100x battle for team present ❤️🩵
Fought like heck for team past. I have never cared as much about a Splatfest theme as much as this one, but I would've been happy whoever won, I love all the games. I have played since the first testfire in Splatoon 1. Loved it all the way back during its first Nintendo Direct. Went out and bought a Wii U for it, even as a kid with heavily limited savings, despite recognizing it was a deeply struggling console. I imagine their are other players like me that are skilled fps/tps players now after all these years; probably a high concentration in team past that came out to battle. I am a Masters PC Overwatch player too so I imagine some of those skills helped a bit.
As someone who represented team present just because of Pearl and Marina, I kept getting into matches with "Past Ruler +10" players. Not to say I didn't win a lot, but when it came to the 10x or more, usually I lost
It felt like this last Splatfest was going to be more of a popularity contest and people love Marie and Callie the most so I had a strong feeling we'd win. Either the Squid Sisters or Off the Hook
Though I never played Splatoon 2 because I didn't have a switch until last year, the nostalgia from the 1st Splatoon is making me cry. Thank you all so much for these memories.
same here, ahgggg seeing callie and marie be such amazing components of this whole splatfest along with everyone else was so nostalgic and heartwarming, it made me so happy to the point of crying. this game is so good i love it so much dude
I also didn't have a switch until last year, and even wii u or other console when switch not exist yet, and even now don't have a chance to play Splatoon, and all of that because of being heavily struggled on money, living in poor family, it's a miracle that i've finally got my switch at all after 8-9 years of waiting to buy recent nintendo console, which was wii u back then, but, before now, for all that time i haven't enough money to buy even a wii u
i was very late at the first i wasn't here at all in the second but i was here at the third and i cherish every moment of time i spent and still spend in this community Thank you, Splatoon 3 Thank you, Nintendo, for giving us such an amazing series Stay Fresh!
God Splatoon has changed my life so kany ways... This is rhe 3rd final fest I've participated in, and it won't be the last. Thank you Splatoon, for everything. Thank you Nintendo for changing my life. I'm alive today because of this series, and I could not be happier. Congrats team past! Lets embrace the past, live in the present, and protect our future together!
I was 12 when Splatoon was first released back in 2015. Today, I'm 22. Splatoon has always been one of my favorite franchises and has changed my life ever since. Thank you, Splatoon, for having me on this journey for nine years. I will look forward to anticipating Splatoon 4 in the future. Until next time, stay fresh!
Splatoon is not just a game, it is a part of my life, and although I am young, I know that, despite every bad or good decision they make, I will continue to love this saga. I am sure I sound cheesy, but seriously, every time I hear its music, I feel complete, and the laughter, the anger from the matches, and the sadness of some scenes, I will never forget them. This saga is too beautiful, and I hope they continue with it, although possibly in this installment, it will be the last time we will see the characters... Thank you splatoon ✨
I remember when this game came out I thought "wait what's different between this and Splatoon 2" but then months passed and I realized that the amount of free content this game has given us was quite insane. I spent over 660h on this game, always trying to grind catalog lol but it was fun. Me and my friend rooted for team past and we even won a 333x battle yesterday, nonetheless that was the best final fest we got. The plaza, the map, the music, everything was a combination of all 3 games, enhancing that "3" symbol the game is trying to convey. Thank you Nintendo and Splatoon 3
@@yurimessiah You... don't know much about Salmonid Biology do you? Smallfries are not babies, they're fully grown adults. Please do not patronize him. I promise you that he is indeed old enough to have children. You insult him.
It's funny how Deep Cut have their mouth fully animated, while Squid Sisters and Off The Hook only have different mouth positions without any smooth motion.
Thank you, Splatoon 3. Splatoon wasn't just a game to me. It was everything. So many tough times in my life, relieved because of splatoon. Thank you for everything, Splatoon. May you never die and be in our hearts for ever!
It’s crazy to me that I picked up this game when I was 6 and I never knew how much this game would inspire to create my own characters and create art of that characters it’s beautiful I’ve loved this game for so long, I’ve cried with this game, I’ve laughed with this game, it got me through so much and I can’t thank Nintendo enough for continuing this game for 3 whole games seeing this game grow up and become this big in the past couple of years has been amazing Ggs to team past and future you were all amazing and I’ll see all of you hopefully in the next instalment of this amazing franchise I hold so close to me
This Grand Festival made the Splatoon franchise feel full of life again. Thank you Nintendo. And thank YOU, fellow squid kids and octo children, for being members of this amazing community.
i am NOT ugly crying i am NOT on the floor sobbing i am NOT oghughh my goodness, thank you to the splatoon 3 staff and players alike. youve all changed my life forever. there is so much love in my heart for this series. thank you!!!!!
Two years happened in two seconds I remember on my first Splatoon three splat fest it was spicy versus sweet versus sour And I remember beating the story mode I remember decorating my locker. I remember wave one of the DLC. I remember wave 2 of the DLC I remember the final big run and I remember final fest and I realize that as the years go on it’s gotten better but it’ll always live on our hearts….forever 🥹
Played Splatoon since 2015 and it’s crazy how this franchise evolved. It was a rollercoaster of emotions, but I enjoyed playing both the Grand Big Run and the Festival. GGs to all the teams and thanks for the memories!
Farewell Splatoon 3, I had my ups and downs with you over the course of your life cycle, but as the very first game that got me into this series and seeing it through until now when I’ve graduated from uni feels surreal. Here now, looking back, is gonna feel weird but I’m so happy to be a part of a fandom that is as wonderful and wacky as I never had originally anticipated. To everyone in the Splatoon fandom, Nintendo for creating the game and for allowing me to engage in my first proper online game community… thank you. Stay fresh until the future all 🥹🫡
It's been 9 years. It's been 7 years since I first fell in love with this beautiful franchise, since I fell in love with the art, the characters, the music (and the story behind each of the bands), the plot, the raw, unfiltered attitude and underlying themes. I've never been dedicated to a franchise so hard in my life. Thank you, Splatoon, for my childhood.
This game saved my life. I got a bad concussion in 2015 and I can’t get out much anymore. You are loved ❤ Never forget someone else is waiting to cue up with you!
I can't stop crying. Splatoon has helped me through some stressful times and I've met so many kind squids and octos here so thanks for everything and stay fresh.
I'm so happy right now. Thank you for everything, I've played Splatoon since I was in middle school, when it came out, I have really good memories from this game, I've played a whole lot with Splatoon 2, Splatoon is my favorite game from all time, I'm happy this game exist, I'm happy with the journey I had with it, I'm happy for the memories and for the people I've played with, just thank you again, just for everything ! ❤️ Stay fresh !
I love splatoon so much. Other games have live events but those are usually to be exciting. Not that this wasn’t exciting. But it really celebrates what made it special. It makes you cry and remember what made the series so special. As someone who was on team present, I’m kind of happy past one. Without the past of this series, I wouldn’t have had as good of a time with the grand festival as I did. There were references everywhere, characters in the venue, and the music was fantastic full of motifs. I wish this never had to end. But all good things have to. I love splatoon so much. I love this community so much. Thank you splatoon. And thanks to all of you.
Splatoon 1 had the best atmosphere, Splatoon 2 had the best music, and Splatoon 3 had the best gameplay. Even though they all have their differences, Splatoon as a whole is one of the absolute best shooters. Here’s hoping Splatoon 4 takes the best of the first 3 and blows it all out of the water!!!! 9 years of sheer chaos and excitement are all a result of these magnificent games. Thank you Nintendo, and thank you Splatoon. Here’s hoping we meet again some sunny day.
@@alexmaxwell3708 I hope they add either more PVE modes or more lobby minigames you can play with friends. Just something to do other than PVP and Salmon Run
STOOOOOOOPPP You're making me cry 😭Fr though? This and Splatoon 2 changed my life. Although I still can't shake the feeling of guilt for even missing a splatfest or two, boy, am I glad to be back. Catch you later, Deep Cut! (And cheers for what's to come in Splatoon 4!!)
I was bad about myself, Big Man, and Off the Hook for my bad behavior, loss, and harassment Now change things to make yourself feel better by time traveling in the past!

I started to play Splatoon when I was 5 and I have not stopped loving this game, thank you Nintendo for all of the memories I have with the 3 games. I will always remember that this game was a huge part of me and my life. You did a very good job Nintendo
ouughwghh actually crying :((( this grand fest was such an amazing experience! while i didn’t participate in past splatfests as much as i’d like, i spent as much of the weekend as i could playing this grand fest and it was amazing :) the atmosphere and the performances made me so emotional even if i my first splatfest was order vs chaos. so happy i got to see this and experience it :)
Splatoon 3 hasn’t been just a game, it’s been an experience. Since the hype of Splatoon 2’s Chaos vs Order impacting the world of Splatoon 3, the trailer showing a chaotic yet vibrant world. The game’s release 2 years ago bringing all of its splatfests and embracing its community, to the eventual end. Wrapping up in the grand themes present throughout the series. Thank you Splatoon 3, it’s been a wild ride.

Splatoon is truly an amazing series. I think we can all agree on that.
What a ride it's been. Here's to Splatoon 4 and whatever's next to come! 🍻
Appreciate the fact that the main focus of the showcase is not WHO won the splatfest, but the art depicting the themes.
Yep, what mattered this time were three things:
What was, what is, and what will be...
That might sound cheesy, but I thought it was nice to put there lol.

I really mean it. Thank you Splatoon. If I never tried out this game on my crusty Wii U back in late 2016.. I wouldn't have been here today, admiring the memories of our previous Splatfests, and I wouldn't have got Splatoon 3. I wouldn't have played Side Order, or Octo Expansion, and all the other wonderful story modes. This franchise truly changed me, and I don't know where I would be without it. ❤
Same.
This is emotional, I started my Splatoon adventure in 2015, when I was 9 years old, and now it’s 2024, and I’m 18 years old, and it has been a journey to see how far this franchise has come in just 9 years, I’m so happy this franchise is still going today, and hope to see more in the future
woah exactly the same as you!!! i'm about to turn 19 and i remember playing splat 1 with my friends in elementary school 🥹
Same I was 12 at the time
Same I was 10 when I got splatoon 1 now I’m 19 😭😭😭
Heh, exact same as you... I'm fine... *I'm not crying...*

国境を超えて同じ感動を味わえるなんて最高です！
It feels like just yesterday I was watching the Anarchy Rainbow release video so amazed… two years later and it’s the same goodbye video we got like in Splatoon 2… goodbye splatoon 3
I remember when anarchy rainbow dropped I wouldn’t stop re playing it and even now it’s still a huge hit the moment I first heard it I knew it sounded so nostalgic

This, was truly our splatoon 💪💪

Still amazing to see this started from Satoru Iwata and everyone at Nintendo who helped with making this series become so much more. No matter where this series goes from here on, im sure it'll lead to even more creative and wonderful ideas...and to those during Grand Fest whether you won or lost, thank you. You helped give this series a chance back when no one thought it would make it far.
“Why are we here? For what purpose do we exist? We must not dwell on these questions. We can merely trust in the will of the universe and spend our days and nights in harmony with the world, celebrating this festival called Life.”

Thank you for the memories, and the friendship we made along the way.
Amen

You’ll never truly know how much Splatoon as a series has inspired me. I picked up Splatoon in the 5th grade, now it’s my last year of high school. Splatoon inspired me to go into digital media, and now that career path is about to open up to me. Thank you, for everything these games have done for me, thank for the fun times, and most of all, thank you for unironically making me the person I am today. Stay fresh!
Dude Same!
Good to know I’ve never had an original experience in my life 😂
That's nice to know
I was obsessed with Splatoon when I was 10 in 2015. Now i’m in my second year of university playing Splatoon 3 :)
Very cool go for it! 👍
I survived the Grand Festival and all I got was 0 points, 21snails, and a caffeine addiction. Until next time, guys, whenever that may be.
ermmm next time will be the Halloweenfest rerun 🤓
(Although I do hope we at least get something for when the Switch 2 comes out)
Only did a few matches myself because I didn't find out about the fest until literally last night (I'm quite closed off sadly).
Why were we so outclassed by everyone like wth 😭
@@icy9001because Callie and Marie stans are the biggest sweat lords and they got real matches. I was in present and literally 80% of my matches were mirrors

I love how from a certain point onwards, Shiver, Frye & Big Man started looking like friends in the artwork for Splatfests.
Thank you, Splatoon 3!
I missed every splatfest before the grand fest due to either not having the games or being busy, but I set aside this entire weekend to just play Splatoon. That experience, whether it was playing in the actual event or just listening to the concerts… it was magical and made me feel nostalgic for a series I’m relatively new to. Thank you to the devs for the last 9 years of Splatoon, and here’s to many more!
Same unfortunately none of my family members cared about it and kept dragging me away, but I managed to get some time in
Same dude, same! I'm new into the world of Splatoon, but I bought Splatoon 3 for the Grand Festival and for the experience of playing the game for the first time and it was so much fun!!
I missed so many of them due to becoming an adult and just losing my free time. But wow this game has made such an impact on my life and it was so fun playing Grand Festival!!!!
@@chrisjf4989 nothing makes me happier than seeing new players enjoying the game

It really is
We are all here now, looking at the great memories we had for the past 2 years.

Yeah it’s weird Nintendo confirmed reruns of seasonal splatfests but EVERYONE was expecting the themes to be the same as last time
These 2 years of splatoon 3 went by really quick. I guess time really flies when you are having fun. Thank you nintendo and never stop making great games

I remember waiting for it to release at around midnight and then playing story mode first thing like it was yesterday.
@@warriorking9885yeah I still remember staying up late beating almost the entirety of story mode, then the next day gaming my heart out at the final parts.
It really does Remeniscing time Remember when the Splat 3 direct came out and everyone was so hype!
I'm not even a huge Splatoon player, but I still remember how fun it was to jump into the game when there was a splatfest going on, and you see all this fan art and competitive spirit between teams to try and get the win for their side in what's essentially a light hearted poll question. Good times.
The “Thank You” of Splatoon 3! This melts our hearts and we’re crying right now! So heartwarming! 😭

@@FreshFalcon how long was it between the final splat 2 update and the release of splat 3?
It felt like a long time and i played after the last splatfest happened
My partner and i started playing Splatoon 1 back in 2015. Our first Splatfest was Pirates vs Ninjas and both of us were hooked. We spent weeks switching off the WiiU just to have turns playing.
Both of us played the Grandfest and like. Almost every Splatfest thia time around. And it's safe to say this will continue being a staple for us. I've got such a fondness for this series.
So thank you for just existing. It means a lot to me
Me and my kids stuck with every splatfest we almost felt exhausted as it made us realize how much we just enjoy hanging out and playing together
Maybe the real grandfest were the friends and memories we made over these past 2 years.
Thank you for everything splatoon 3.
Thank you splatoon 3!

I bought 3 two days after its release and played 18 of the 19 splatfests.
Thank you for everything and bringing people together, Splatoon. The nights I've spent playing these Splatfests with my friends are something I will never forget. This series really is so special

I ALSO REMEMBER SEEING THE ANNOUNCEMENT VIDEO FOR THE FIRST TIME ON THE DAY THEY POSTED IT😭😭 time flies so fast
That was 3 years ago already?!?!? I still remember freaking out abt the floating spawns and the addition of the bow n splatana-
It was everything i wanted and more. Still can't believe we have all 3 cities in one game. and they really went all out during this Grand Splatfest, I actually go a bit teary-eyed seeing every idol actually perform all of their songs. AND THEY LET US CHEER AND EVERYTHING
LOL I remember where I was and what I was doing when I watched it!
This series has been with me through some of my toughest times. I started with 2, and I've moved houses 4 times since them, dealing with both my school life and my horrendous personal life. Splatoon was there for all of it. Thank you, Nintendo.

Thank you for 2 years ❤️❤️❤️
I know that the community has its ups and downs, but this franchise will truly mean something very important to me and I'm glad I was able to fully experience the whole thing from start to finish this time as well.
You know what. When all is said and done, I’m glad I was able to be there for the games’ swan song this time.
I missed Splatocalypse back in 2019 and to this day I’m still annoyed that I was unable to play it. So when 3 launched I swore to play the Final Fest this time around, no matter what.
And I’m glad to say, Grand Festival surpassed my expectations in every conceivable way, and made me feel like I made up for missing Splatoon 2’s Finale all those years ago.
To close, thanks Splatoon 3. Stay Fresh, Don’t Get Cooked, and I’ll Catch Ya Later.
Splatoon, we love you. You bring people together. Friends, family, community. You are truly special. Thank you for everything Splatoon 3. It was, the most special thing anyone could have asked for. Stay fresh.
If I could give this whole community a big hug, I absolutely would. It was welcoming to me when no one else was and got me where I am today.
What really makes deep cut unique is how much they show off their culture in their music and it’s beautiful I love them so much
Splatfests werent my favorite thing in terms of just overall gameplay but the environment Nintendo provides EVERY. TIME. always has been phenomenal. Splatoon 3 shows they continued to outdo themselves all the way up to the breathtaking Grand Festival. Easily the most fun I have had with the game. Thank you Nintendo for a simply unforgettable experience.
Nintendo ya did it again, I wake up find a notification and say "hu, it from nintendo" and I realized and nearly scream "ITS ABOUT SPLATOON!" I watch it, and start crying my eyes out and start thinking of the start of MY splatoon journey, and a little 8 year old pops up in my mind, and I smile from ear to ear, thank you nintendo fo the best game I've ever played.
I can't believe it's truly over. I hope Splatoon 4 comes out soon because I'm gonna miss having splatfests again (but also, devs please take your time, we want this game to be the best it can be!)

As somebody who has played Splatoon 3 since its release, the memories throughout this video suddenly flowed back to me. I lost the game a couple of times (which I couldn't experience every single Splatfest) but the ones I did experience were some of the most fun times I've ever had. I remember two years ago, the me from that long ago wouldn't have seen this day coming. But now, the day has arrived.
I will love this game forever, and I hope the franchise continues to see the light of day.
Out of the nine years of Splatoon I've played, Splatoon 3 has probably been the most fun. In just these past two years, I've made so many cool new friends and accomplished so many things I've never thought possible before. Splatoon is more than just a video game to me. It's a community of some of the most caring people I've ever met. Thank you so much!!!

@@chipi4179there’s Xenoblade Splatoon art?!
I am genuinely shocked past won I never thought we would win I’m so proud and happy as someone who’s participated in Callie vs Marie it has me in tears I got splatoon 1 so late and never got to actually PLAY any splatfests except vote for the final fest I went on vacation during the time and barley knew splatoon 2 in the golden era now I finally get to grow up with splatoon 3 and maybe in a year or more to come this will get more nostalgic
There were some god tier splatoon gamers that absolutely dominated the battles for team past (guessing since they played during splatoon 1). Still had a great time and won my first 100x battle for team present ❤️🩵
Fought like heck for team past. I have never cared as much about a Splatfest theme as much as this one, but I would've been happy whoever won, I love all the games.
I have played since the first testfire in Splatoon 1. Loved it all the way back during its first Nintendo Direct. Went out and bought a Wii U for it, even as a kid with heavily limited savings, despite recognizing it was a deeply struggling console. I imagine their are other players like me that are skilled fps/tps players now after all these years; probably a high concentration in team past that came out to battle. I am a Masters PC Overwatch player too so I imagine some of those skills helped a bit.
As someone who represented team present just because of Pearl and Marina, I kept getting into matches with "Past Ruler +10" players. Not to say I didn't win a lot, but when it came to the 10x or more, usually I lost
Team callie!
It felt like this last Splatfest was going to be more of a popularity contest and people love Marie and Callie the most so I had a strong feeling we'd win. Either the Squid Sisters or Off the Hook
Though I never played Splatoon 2 because I didn't have a switch until last year, the nostalgia from the 1st Splatoon is making me cry. Thank you all so much for these memories.
same here, ahgggg seeing callie and marie be such amazing components of this whole splatfest along with everyone else was so nostalgic and heartwarming, it made me so happy to the point of crying. this game is so good i love it so much dude
I also didn't have a switch until last year, and even wii u or other console when switch not exist yet, and even now don't have a chance to play Splatoon, and all of that because of being heavily struggled on money, living in poor family, it's a miracle that i've finally got my switch at all after 8-9 years of waiting to buy recent nintendo console, which was wii u back then, but, before now, for all that time i haven't enough money to buy even a wii u
i was very late at the first
i wasn't here at all in the second
but i was here at the third
and i cherish every moment of time i spent and still spend in this community
Thank you, Splatoon 3
Thank you, Nintendo, for giving us such an amazing series

Splatoon is not just a game, it is a part of my life, and although I am young, I know that, despite every bad or good decision they make, I will continue to love this saga. I am sure I sound cheesy, but seriously, every time I hear its music, I feel complete, and the laughter, the anger from the matches, and the sadness of some scenes, I will never forget them. This saga is too beautiful, and I hope they continue with it, although possibly in this installment, it will be the last time we will see the characters...
Thank you splatoon ✨
I remember when this game came out I thought "wait what's different between this and Splatoon 2" but then months passed and I realized that the amount of free content this game has given us was quite insane. I spent over 660h on this game, always trying to grind catalog lol but it was fun. Me and my friend rooted for team past and we even won a 333x battle yesterday, nonetheless that was the best final fest we got. The plaza, the map, the music, everything was a combination of all 3 games, enhancing that "3" symbol the game is trying to convey. Thank you Nintendo and Splatoon 3

Farewell Splatoon 3, I had my ups and downs with you over the course of your life cycle, but as the very first game that got me into this series and seeing it through until now when I’ve graduated from uni feels surreal. Here now, looking back, is gonna feel weird but I’m so happy to be a part of a fandom that is as wonderful and wacky as I never had originally anticipated. To everyone in the Splatoon fandom, Nintendo for creating the game and for allowing me to engage in my first proper online game community… thank you. Stay fresh until the future all 🥹🫡

I love splatoon so much. Other games have live events but those are usually to be exciting. Not that this wasn’t exciting. But it really celebrates what made it special. It makes you cry and remember what made the series so special. As someone who was on team present, I’m kind of happy past one. Without the past of this series, I wouldn’t have had as good of a time with the grand festival as I did. There were references everywhere, characters in the venue, and the music was fantastic full of motifs. I wish this never had to end. But all good things have to. I love splatoon so much. I love this community so much. Thank you splatoon. And thanks to all of you.
Splatoon 1 had the best atmosphere, Splatoon 2 had the best music, and Splatoon 3 had the best gameplay. Even though they all have their differences, Splatoon as a whole is one of the absolute best shooters. Here’s hoping Splatoon 4 takes the best of the first 3 and blows it all out of the water!!!! 9 years of sheer chaos and excitement are all a result of these magnificent games. Thank you Nintendo, and thank you Splatoon. Here’s hoping we meet again some sunny day.

this grand fest was such an amazing experience! while i didn’t participate in past splatfests as much as i’d like, i spent as much of the weekend as i could playing this grand fest and it was amazing :) the atmosphere and the performances made me so emotional even if i my first splatfest was order vs chaos.
so happy i got to see this and experience it :)

actually not by Dr. Seuss, it's incorrectly attributed to him. quote is by a German poet named Ludwig Jacobowski
Heard people post this same quote all over whenever stuff like this happens. But doesn't make it mean any less.
That just makes me want to cry even more
