A Splatoon 3 player took over a Nintendo shareholder meeting over male customisation options

TO splatoon 3 The player was so unhappy with the male customization options in the game that he bought over $3,000 worth of stock to attend a shareholder meeting to complain.

Whether the games are for you or not, there’s no arguing that the Splatoon series has an incredible sense of style and some really cool customization options. Except one player doesn’t feel that way about Splatoon 3, at least not from the male hints, as reported by Videogames YESa gamer recently spoke up at Nintendo’s latest shareholder meeting, causing a bit of an uproar over the lack of customization options for the male hints.

“The company has blatantly turned their back on the Splatoon guys and I’d like to see some improvement,” the player said. He went on to talk about how while Splatoon 1 and 2 had much more limited options, they were balanced between male and female cues, but “in Splatoon 3, there’s a lot more customization and there’s a clear favoritism towards female characters.” Boys.” Apparently, he argued the case for him by pointing out the supposedly more dynamic hair options available to female students, as well as profile icons and emotes that he believes are better designed for them as well.

“It makes me really sad when people say ‘If you enjoy playing as a kid, then you won’t enjoy playing Splatoon,'” he also said.

As shared by the Twitter user NStyles, who also attended the meeting, Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa finally interrupted the man saying the question was too long. This apparently didn’t stop the player, so Furukawa continued to listen, simply thanking him for playing and moving on.

Even the player himself shared on Twitter that he bought the shares worth ¥512,000 ($3,570) by buying Nintendo Switch OLEDs with a credit card and selling them at a loss, only to attend the meeting to air his grievances.

It should be noted that none of the clothing or customization options are gender locked in Splatoon 3, you can wear and lock as you like, male or female. But hey, everyone has their own battles I guess.

In this week’s Nintendo Direct, a new Splatfest was announced, this time the topic being which flavor of ice cream is the best.
