Reminds me of Portal 2. What is not a bad thing at all.

My most hyped game after Smash for Wii U.

Most importantly, I feel like this will be a successful new IP, with enough attributes to hook younger and older audiences (bright colorful game with some edge to it). The 8-bit snippet is pretty cool too. So many new ideas are going to burst out from Nintendo's faculty thanks to this.
As a fan of Portal 2 I feel like kind of an idiot for seeing the potential of this game as a shooter but never as a platformer. This looks ace.
Some key people from Animal Crossing are working on this, I think NIntendo will try their best to turn this into a hit.
Edit: Or at least as big as you can be on a crippled console.

I wish there wasn't a divide between single player and multiplayer content.
If the ''single player campaign' was two player co-op, I'd buy the game.
As it is, it looks nifty, but I don't think I'll buy it unless it's on the big cheap.

Looks fucking amazing. Day 1.
i own a wii u and it's the only game i'm looking forward to, so no.

True, but they're not half-assing the single-player mode (aka putting in a bot mode and saying "we're done").
Love those designs for the mollusk invaders. I wonder if there'll be some mind-fuck backstory to the paint war.

you mean like every multiplayer shooter from the last like 15 years?
Ikr. The only platformer ideas I had was just comparing it to sunshine.
This game looks like so much fun. Damn.

This game is going to be SO GOOD. Hopefully it gets good marketing, because it has huge potential.

This most resembles the Sunshine warp-pipe levels, albeit with something like a FLUDD pack this time around.

Uh... did you watch the same trailer I did?
Hear, hear.
I mean, it might be. Who knows. I'd rather them do this than what Respawn did with Titanfall.

Rewatched trailer like 6 times just to hear the music again and again and again

Nintendo had really better put the main character in Smash.
Waiting an entire gen to maybe do it if it's successful enough isn't utilizing the potential cross promotion/marketing that these series cross things they are doing can have for newer/weaker brands.
Having them in Smash already would have been cool, but with DLC they can add after Splatoon's release, if they only wanted to have characters from games that are already out.

SP co-op would seal the deal for me. Some online integration would be novel, too, but it's not essential.

There were a lot of parts that are clearly not the multiplayer maps and are focused on platforming

The single player looks great. Lots of variety in the level design and ink usage. Getting hyped for this.
I was really worried they were going in a 5 days at freddie's direction for a minute from that trailer.

I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
I guess that 8-bit segment is probably just part of the counterculture cut-ins the trailer was filled with, and not actually part of the game...but, you never know.

Now that it has single player campaign I will buy it. Looks fantastic.
