Nintendo Offers Wii U Bundle with Splatoon on May 29

People who can’t wait to get their tentacles on Nintendo’s upcoming action shooter Splatoon are in luck! The Wii U Special Edition Splatoon Deluxe Set launches in retail stores across the country starting on May 29. This inkredible bundle includes a Wii U Deluxe console and both the Splatoon (via included download code) and Nintendo Land (pre-installed) games for a suggested retail price of only $329.99.

For the unaware, or inattentive, Splatoon is a wild new game from Nintendo that combines the creative and family-friendly fun Nintendo is known for with ink-spraying, turf claiming action. In the game, players take on the role of the Inklings, customizable characters that can transform into squids at the touch of a button. After splatting opponents and covering a level with colourful ink, players can transform into squids and swim quickly through their own ink or use it to take cover and hide from enemies.
