Hello, squidkids! Another update from someone still in the Nintendo Network.
Almost a day after closing, I am the final Splatoon 1 player online. I’m going to hold out for as long as I can. I’m so lonely…

I like retro gaming and CRT monitors. The final Splatoon 1 Nintendo Network player! Welcome to the World Wide Web!
- This is your Captain speaking. After 68 days online, my connection to Splatoon has been terminated. In my move, I accidentally lost connection to my router. I’d like to thank everyone for this inkredible support. Even though I may be crying now, you’ve kept me going every day.
- Today, 30 April 2024 @ 2:30 P.M. EST, marks the final map rotation in Splatoon 1 on the Nintendo Network. These maps are set to be in rotation for the next ten years. Here is the final Squid Sisters broadcast from the Nintendo Network.
00:00 - I did. it. I’m shaking so hard right now. I reached the end of Splatoon 1 on the Nintendo Network.
- UPDATE: As of 3 April 2023, I’m still in the 3DS eShop and have been since before the shutdown. I won’t go down that easily.
- BREAKING NEWS!! I just got the map rotation notification… fifty-seven minutes later than expected. It seems like things are gearing down for a final discontinuation on Nintendo’s side, but I’m still in and getting the news.
…Did Nintendo finally turn off map rotations in Splatoon 1? Usually, they send a news flash for the Squid Sisters out at ten my time (eighteen minutes ago). I’m still connected and very much online, though. (GamePad view taken now, then a timestamped picture of the rotation.) - Hold on to your tentacles… for some bad news. As of the (delayed) 2:00 A.M. EST rotation, matchmaking (lobby) has officially gone down in Splatoon. Other online services, including the news and shops, are still functional and I still remain online. I repeat, I am STILL online.
- I’M ON WIKIPEDIA???? I’m on the Nintendo Network Wikipedia page. This is the most surreal thing ever. …Inkipedia time when?
- Replying to @Lcd101Maps changed. I’ll find someone eventually…! I hope. Ninety-nine tanks of ink on my back, ninety-nine tanks of ink… Take one down, splat it around, ninety-eight tanks of ink on my back…
- Replying to @Lcd101UPDATE: New maps! And oh, the irony… (I’m still waiting!)
- Just gonna give a quick update on how things are going! I’ve already explained everything on my main thread, but here’s the latest Splatoon 1 NN rotation with the latest news. As you can see, with three seconds left on the clock, I am *still* alone here!
- Wherever you are out there, final players that held out a few hours after the shutdown, thank you for being my last squad.I’m still going…
- Replying to @Lcd101Sorry that I’m a few minutes late! Here’s the next map rotation. I’ll be sleeping soon, but I’ll keep the game on!
