New Weapon and Splatfest for Splatoon

The latest Splatoon updates are in, including next week's Splatfest and a brand new weapon.

The newest weapon in the meaty roster of ink-splatting guns is the amusingly titled "H-3 Nozzlenoze", a gun that packs a punch. It's wrapped with a snake-like coil and can pelt rivals down through high impact bursts.

In related Splatoon news, the newest Splatfest has been announced for North America and is a toughie - art versus science. 

We've seen what you can do in art contests, on Miiverse and, not to mention, all the rad fan art uploaded to Tumblr! It seems at first glance that art will have no problem taking it all. BUT! When you think about all the greats hanging out on the science side (Bill Nye! Neil deGrasse Tyson! Beakman!), it's not hard to see how science could win this one!

The Splatfest takes place on 18th September for a 24 hour period from 9pm PT.

Which side will you join in the next Splatfest?
