Possible Splatoon Spin-off in 2020

[Cephalobro]

There was a Nintendo Direct RUMOR that has Splatoon Spin-off as one of the titles, unfortunately, I don't remember where the source of that is. To me, it makes sense that something related to Splatoon is coming out this year, regarding the secret messages of the New Year artwork celebrating 2020 (the ripples of the water), the Valentine's Day artwork (the little 4 on top of the blue) and the Caturday artwork (the 6 on the Octoling's shirt).

Now the reason why the list is credible is the fact that Pikmin 3 Deluxe is on that list of games as well, we see that Nintendo loves to port Wii U games to the Switch, given both Mario Kart 8 and New Super Mario Bros. U both have been ported to the Switch.

So you are saying that splatoon 1 may be coming to the switch? that would be crazy

Ports aren't spin-offs, I'm just using the port idea to give attention to the fact that Nintendo is porting games for the Switch every year.

Speaking of ports, I hope they port this game soon! It's LONG overdue!

As for a Splatoon spin-off, that would be pretty sweet :) Maybe it could star the Squid Sisters, Off The Hook, or even both? :D

no please no

I believe the spin-off should be handled like the main games do, letting the player character be customizable and having a story that makes the spin-off as a chronological sequel to a main series game.

I SAID PLEASE NO

Eh, I prefer a spin-off over yet another Wii U port, especially since that port would only remove the customization options introduced in the second game. I prefer Splatoon's story chronology to keep moving forward and never go back once that part starts.
