A tiny detail I noticed.

The Urchins Cap in Splatoon looks an awful lot like the caps for the Nintendo-owned MLB team, the Seattle Mariners.

(couldn't find a bigger picture)

Nintendo owns a baseball team? You learn something everyday.

No doubt it is at least based on the style of cap, even has the shiny sticker and all.

True facts, you can/could bring your DS to a Mariners game and get bonus information on players and whatnot.

This is a pretty cool easter egg in any case.

Nintendo caught a lot of flak for buying the team way back when. Lots of Americans were aghast at a Japanese company owning a baseball team, despite the fact that Japan is the probably the only other country in the world that loves baseball as much as America does.

Proven by every single Key anime/visual novel.

I still find it odd that a video game company owns a baseball team. That is a neat detail regardless.

On top of that, the Urchins Jersey appears to be colored after the Mariner's colors too. It's main skill? Run speed up.

Nintendo owning a baseball team is one of those facts I forget about every time but then when I hear it, I'm like oh yeah.

 

[Lyka Phoxx]

What? You thought they made Ken Griffey Jr. Baseball back in the SNES days because of Ken Griffey Jr.? No. Nintendo of America has owned the Seattle Mariners since 1992.

Oh, that's a pretty cool detail right there!
Just an interesting fact I never knew.
