Here’s a still from the new Street Fighter.
Uncanny. This is clearly a Splatoon game! The blending of the neon colors into a beautiful melange of battle seems to be the hallmark of both, but the Inklings got their first.

Still no word on whether the sexy lumberjack character fans are hoping will appear on the roster has actually made the cut.
