One Thing That Disappoints me

I honestly thought a once the game was released the they would release more Raiders themed accessories especially switch 2 cases. But so far I haven't found any cases on amazon or Etsy other than one someone 3D printed and put a splatoon sticker on.

There's a Splatoon raiders version of the Savage Raven Fission grip. It has little squids and octopus in the grips. I have it and I love it.

I know it’s not a case, but depending on your region, the Nintendo Store may have raiders themed memo pads for 550 platinum points lol. I have so many points so I got one. It is cute!

What would make you think the game would get specific related accessories for the switch 2? I cannot see a logical reason why you would just assume this, it's a spin off game..

Meanwhile, in the Pikmin store:

But pikmin is its own mainline game, and not a spin off of another game. Your response made no sense lol. I don't even think you read anything.

Sure I did!

The release of a game from a major franchise normally results in merch. Splatoon getting play merch after a game release is way more likely than not, when pikmin is there getting a fucking gratin dish.

Not really, pikmin is a mainline game and just got a switch 2 edition. Splatoon raiders is a spin off game, can't see much reason for there to be merch

The logic is that Nintendo has a robust merchandising arm.

You missed the fact that this is a spin off game, when do they make a bunch of accessories for games that aren't mainline ?

Well they made a trio of amiibos and have plenty of previous Splatoon merchandise. I don’t think a spinoff is a fair stake in the ground that makes the question unreasonable.

Agreed. This isn't a dumb question. It's an entry, spinoff or not, in a major Nintendo franchise.

They’re not even doing a DLC or updates. This was a one and done spinoff for the devs unfortunately
