Does someone know if Nintendo has plans for releasing Amiibos of the Grand Festival?

I’m asking because the idols look so great, it would be a wasted opportunity to not make Amiibos of them.

Ursine Report. 1

Some drawings of some large... Bear? Its body seems to be purely made of some weird serum instead of Hair and flesh. The Bear drawings also has a crude drawing of a golden egg near it.. is this related to Grizzco? Future updates might be coming. (Drawing of goofy giant bear :D)

I can't play one class

This may seem a little weird to complain about, but I seriously cannot play any one single class in splatoon. I have been playing the series since S1, and my main weapons fluctuated greatly between 2 and 3. And now, a few years after the launch of Splatoon 3 I have no main weapon to speak of, let alone a weapon class.

I had wanted to go for some 5 stars for a while, and racked up a good 800-1000 hours in Splatoon 3 alone. To some, this is many, and to others, not a lot. But I still do not have a 5 star. Going into S3 I was maining brellas, but I ran so many weapons on the side. I just never feel motivated to grind one weapon, and it makes me feel like I have accomplished nothing. A friend who has similar hours to me ha two five stars, and I only have two weapons close to it.

I cannot dedicate myself to one single weapon, to five star this. To back it up, my two closest weapons are still about 600-700k XP away. And these are not even the same class, or playstyle, being V Cover and Dread Wringer. Like what the hell!?!?!? Is this normal? Do any other players play 5000 different weapons? Every time I say I am going to go for the five star, I can't even do an hours gameplay, or even ten matches on one weapon. I switch entire classes, and go from backline, to skirmisher, to special spamming.

This does give me a variety of skills on weapons, but I am not *super good* with just one. My 4 stars are also different. Dynamo, Carbon, Brush, Liter, Squiffer, Explo, Wringer, Tent, Cover, Reef Lux and probably some more. I have way more fun switching weapons, but I just feel like I suck for not having a 5 star. Do I just have a skill issue? Does anyone else have this problem? I need advice, because I am so lost here. I can still play and have fun, but I never want to grind. And I know it is probably fine to want to have fun, but I also want to have something to say I am good (I also have a TON of 3 stars, and almost every weapon before the last season one starred, when you needed more XP).

Overall I just want to know if someone else has this problem, or any advice on what I can do to go for ONE five star, and not have to five star 5 different weapons at once. Sorry for the lengthy-ness, and thanks for reading <3

Right stick isn't working do I have to replace it

I tried to use button mapping to the right button, but when my special attack is ready and I press that button, it does nothing. My right stick won't go through, no matter how much I press down on it.

Does anyone have a recipe for the ink for the World of Nintendo Splattershot?

I was cleaning out a bin and noticed that the ink I had went bad, so I was wondering if anyone had made a recipe for it.

Vs V Unit A-0.

One of the many experimental Prototypes of the Vampling general Giya , That went out of control due of a unknown Digital Virus and went rampage causing Chaos in the abyss.

it's up to agent V to restore Order in the Abyssal lands once and for all

This Robot Vampling unit Has the Combat Data of Agent V , making it the Toughest opponent Agent V has ever faced against.

Is like Fighting a reflection in a mirror.

Does anyone remember the SpongeBob SquarePants X Splatoon Promotion. How would your idea of a SpongeBob SquarePants X Splatoon Crossover go?

I've already come up with a loose idea for an episode, or perhaps a special.

This special would involve three plotlines, Plankton working with DJ Octavio, in an attempt to get his hands on the Krabby Patty Secret Formula, Squidward having Octoling girls as Nieces. (Who are hired as W)waitresses at the Krusty Krab) (He is an Octopus after all). And SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward, and Sandy teaming up with the New Squidbeak Splatoon to get back the Krabby Patty Secret Recipe.

I keep toying with the idea Plankton would use Hypnoshades on Squidwards nieces, to make them steal the Krabby Patty Secret Formula. Which they do rather quickly, after a tussle with Mr Krabs.

As for Idols for this episode, I'm toying with the idea that Callie and Marie would appear, and that SpongeBob and Patrick are fans. Off the Hook will be mentioned, mentioning Pearl (Mr. Krab's Daughter) is a huge fan of them. And for Deep Cut, they would also appear in the episode, perhaps sent by Plankton to try and misdirect SpongeBob and the gang. After some time, and a battle between Shiver and Sandy, the rest if Deep Cut decides to help SpongeBob and his friends. In a weird way, I picture Big Man and Patrick getting along.

Finally, for what songs would play in the Episode, definitely Calimari Inkantation, which for comedy sakes, Squidward can play perfectly on his Clarinet.

Anyhow, how would your ideas be for a SpongeBob X Splatoon Crossover episode play out, what would happen? I'd love to hear your ideas.
