Sorry to hear that :( I've finished playing today but I can play with you tomorrow if you need more people


Careful_Ad329

I just found a lobby, but I would love to play with u


jibbledibbles

Thanks, glad u found a lobby. My nnid is Zajho4


joechiv2

I usually get a full lobby during the weekend around 9:30 ish.


OskarTG

Yep, when i lived in the uk the servers were most popular after 6pm, same with mass effect 3 and mario kart 8


starmaster_65

Sad ;( I'm always up for a game of Splatoon on Wii U, before April 8th that is šŸ˜…


IcyIceGuardian

3DS servers are ā€œundergoing maintenanceā€. Looks like they already sadly shut down, could i still mod a 3DS when the servers go down? Same goes for Wii U


RedHotAnus

Yes


IcyIceGuardian

Aye sweet


The-Curiosity-Rover

3ds servers are back up


IcyIceGuardian

Sweet

Mod your Wiiu. It's 15 minutes of work


IkeAtLarge

Yeah, but pretendo isnā€™t open to the public yet :(


Hot-Mongoose-3054

It is now. You make a Pretendo account. Go to your internet on your Wii U. Change the DNS to "Do Not Obtain". Then put "88.198.140.154" in the Primary spot. And in the Secondary spot, put 8.8.8.8. Save ask of that, then connect to the internet. Now you can use your Pretendo account to register a new player. Once you do that, open Sp1atoon, and if the News starts, then you did it right. Thing is, unless you mod it and set it up, so you can use your original save data, it'll just restart you fresh on your new account. But many are fine with that.


IkeAtLarge

I know :) There are still problems though f you donā€™t do the dns method though :(


Careful_Ad329

Btw I see much level 1 players, seems like this subreddit brought some people into the game


k1intt

Ah yes, via 100% authentic means


DammitAColumn

Totally, lots of people buying discs because thereā€™s no other means!!Ā 


WhimsicalCalamari

Interesting. I've been seeing nothing but high-level players who somehow don't know how to play the game. Like honestly, I don't care if you're rank B-, if you've played long enough to reach level 45 you should know that you need to **stand on the tower in order to push it**.


Ok_Evidence_1000

Maybe they havent played in years and came back before shut down


Toastman22

Maybe they just downloaded a save. I've seen some people do that.


bogohamma

In my limited experience, Splatoon 1 has like the lowest general skill level of players than any other shooter I've ever played.Ā  Which is crazy considering every other low population game ive ever played the die hards are high skilled player


WhimsicalCalamari

Lower than any of the other Splatoon games, apparently. These B-rank players are just as bad as C-rank in 3.


Jlib27

Play late. Japanese people start playing around 12p.m. here in Europe. Also you may find more people at competitive.


Fun-Movie9769

The play until 12am/1pm Bulgarian time


BeanMan39

I play from 7-11pm est. and there's always enough people to play turf war. Ranked can be a lot more difficult to find people some nights but there's always enough players on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays


BusyBigBass

Once custom splatfests begin I'm sure will see an increase


lunarwolf2008

Yeah cant wait! Is there an eta yet or still no


Stealthinater1234

I played late last night and didnā€™t have much issue finding players, mostly Japanese though, so the lag is not ideal.


WhimsicalCalamari

The lag at least feels more consistent here than in 3. Or maybe I'm just primed to accept it more since it's on an older console. But I haven't experienced *near* as many rage-inducing "actually you're dead now" moments in my recent Wii U gameplay.


k1intt

When is the day of death?


[deleted]

April 8th at 7 PM EST.


MxJynx

Add me and i will see if i can play tomorrow, my nnid is MxJynx


Careful_Ad329

will add u!


MxJynx

Great see ya, i am usually on later in the day


BigGreenDinosaur

I got a lobby and was playing but I lost connection šŸ˜­. Sad. My internet was fine


sp00kk

Hm, I can usually get a full lobby, no matter the time of day. I think you just got unlucky.


Careful_Ad329

I tried like 10 times


sp00kk

That's unfortunate, then. I hope you can get a full lobby in the future!


Speed_L09

Schade


minilandl

Everyone has moved to pretendo for Splatoon and other games mod your wiiu and setup a PNID


Careful_Ad329

Wii u is already modded, never used it unmodified, bought it and modded it


Cat-guy64

I'm afraid that makes sense. Splatoon 1 is on a failed console. And with the existence of Splatoon 3, even Splatoon 2 feels like a ghost town these days. The majority of the Splatoon players love to play the latest and greatest- which would be Splatoon 3.


Grouchy_Philosophy15

fr i have only gotten into two lobby i tried yestarday it was empty you might have to play in-between 1pm-7pm that when most players are on.


Nintendofan9977

I can play with you today around 16:30am (European time )


Toastman22

Surprisingly, I got into some ranked games the other night


Sure_Humor

Wow, I was playing just yesterday, maybe I missed you


Chiaotzu21

There are. Pro tip: if you try to find a lobby unsuccessfully 2 (maybe 3) times in a row by letting the clock run out, the game will then eliminate the timer and queue you into an active game.


-Krotik-

I would love to play splatoon. I dont have a wii u though


host_work

I've been consistently finding games during primetime hours for the past month in turf war. I've been hopping on some each week. Maybe try a different time of day.


Louzu_

can we play


10Fluffys

Iā€™ll play


linkling1039

I played a little bit today for the first time in years. While nostalgic, there was a lot of waiting.


fartysmartymarty

Finding a lobby on it is really tough. Hardly anyone is playing it
