It a regular thing, they partner up with Nintendo all the time. Also explains the curious choice of chocolate mint, that's one of their biggest sellers.
it's like one step forward and two steps back. they already learned that it was better to give us salmon run 24/7, but now they are doing the exact same shit again with those challenges(but even worse).
If it's done right, the menthol effect combined with the coldness of the ice cream produces a very calming and cooling feeling in the mouth and the taste is very smooth and not overly sweet.
If it's done wrong it tastes like cold toothpaste.
That's assuming they even add new shit at a consistent rate. Jesus H. Christ the amount of gear this season is abysmal, they could've at least padded it out with more returning Grizzco items.
Vanilla and mint ice cream taste way different than real vanilla or mint. Strawberry ice cream is just sweet on sweet and very rarely justifies just not eating real berries.
I only ever like strawberry ice cream in Neapolitan ice cream, personally. I think fruit flavors work a lot better with shaved ice or sherbet than they do in ice cream.
I don't think I've ever actually tried mint chocolate in my life despite it being in the house because my sister loved it. It just looks fricking gross, green ice cream ain't right.
Strawberry obviously
vanilla is for tasteless homosexuals
mint is for the degenerate freaks that started eating toothpaste at a young age and never stopped
WHAT THE FRICK? NO TEAM CHOCOLATE? I LOVE CHOCOLATE! FRICKING BULLSHIT! THIS FRICKING SUCKS! I guess I'll pick team strawberry, strawberry ice cream is good, don't like mint and vanilla is kind of meh/plain.
I hate mint chocolate >mint associated with clean fresh mouth >chocolate associated with sweetness, decadence and fat americans
It just doesnt make sense especially in terms of flavor
But I'll probably pick it for Mini
There is only one option
Man of culture
I will choose not to play this splatfest
Man, Splatoongays really got the short end of the stick with that Direct today. only sigment was for SPLATFEST kek
This. Frick these fests and until they get legitimately better themes, Nintendo can frick off with these CRINGEfests.
no chocolate because they knew it would sweep. chocolate to strong
Chocolate ice cream is foul.
>No caramel option
>vanilla
Easily Mint Chips,
We've already got an entire splatfest dedicated to chocolate, I doubt they would have done it a second time
It's a shill tie-in with Baskin Robbins in nipland, it's probably corporate mandated.
What do you mean, there's no reference to BR in the JP announcement.

>September of last year when 7-Eleven Japan was also shilling Sploon like crazy
I figured they didn't wanna do chocolate because of what the playing field would look like.
We've already had a full chocolate splatfest, so clearly not.
Chances are they didn't becuase of it, to not have chocolate again.
Chocolate is one of the worst ice cream flavors
I'll probably be a boring b***h and go vanilla.
That's a tough choice. I think I'd have to choose vanilla.
Mint, but only if it's real peppermint and not that fake shit they put in cheap ice cream.
Vanilla
It's always hard to find an actually good vanilla ice cream, but when you finally do it tastes so fricking good.
>expected side order showcase
>splatfest instead
frick you, sizzle season was already lackluster
>introduces challenges
>they barely exist
it's like one step forward and two steps back. they already learned that it was better to give us salmon run 24/7, but now they are doing the exact same shit again with those challenges(but even worse).
>i've ever seen mint ice cream
What back water shithole do you live in?
Out of these 3, mint chocolate. I don't care for strawberry ice cream and I usually only eat vanilla when it's paired with something else.
i don't think i've ever seen mint ice cream, does that just taste like breath mints??
If it's done right, the menthol effect combined with the coldness of the ice cream produces a very calming and cooling feeling in the mouth and the taste is very smooth and not overly sweet.
If it's done wrong it tastes like cold toothpaste.
that does seem interesting
i live in sweden, maybe it's just not a thing here
>Never seen mint ice-cream
Huh???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
>never had the best ice cream flavor
I pity you
it tastes like wiener and the chips taste like semen so its honestly not a bad combination if you happen to be horny
Lucky bastard
Everything involving mint is gross
Cats know
Insects know
Most animals know
Why did a few humans not get the memo?
mint bros, it's our time
If you don't pick strawberry, you have no soul.
mint choco is sex
I surrender to the strawberry ice cream
Shit, can frye actually win this one
Cause i feel most will go either strawberry or vanilla
MINI MINI MINI MINI
MINI
MINI
MINI
I like both vanilla and mint a lot, I don't know
Strawberry is shit thoughever
Mint!
I don't get how people can like mint when they've been brushing their teeth with it their whole life
Toothpaste is flavored with artificial mint that doesn't taste like any actual plant in the mint family.
Most mint food doesn't taste like toothpaste mint
>Big Man has best choice again
Hooray
Im gonna play vanilla just so I can blast hot squids with sticky off white ink
SPLACOOM
Bros there's still hope, trust the plan
Pearl is so goddamned ugly
Really surprised there was no mention of Side Order since I figured it'd be coming out in September.
Who the frick thought this was okay?
I have to wait until next year for my apron.
That's assuming they even add new shit at a consistent rate. Jesus H. Christ the amount of gear this season is abysmal, they could've at least padded it out with more returning Grizzco items.
>shiver and cum ink
yep thats free sweep for the queen
Don't underestimate mint autists
Frye is fricked again though
Vanilla I guess
Vanilla is just better, but all are pretty good
why do people dislike strawberry so much?
If I wanted something strawberry flavored I would just eat the real thing, don’t need a cheap imitation of it from my ice cream.
Whereas vanilla and mint are not real outside of ice creams
Vanilla and mint ice cream taste way different than real vanilla or mint. Strawberry ice cream is just sweet on sweet and very rarely justifies just not eating real berries.
i love strawberry flavor but i dont eat actual strawberries
Never liked strawberry flavored ice cream. Vanilla has the right color and idol.
I only ever like strawberry ice cream in Neapolitan ice cream, personally. I think fruit flavors work a lot better with shaved ice or sherbet than they do in ice cream.
I choose to ignore the game until the next update (surely that one will be substantial, right?)
Nilla is best. It's considered the default for a reason.
>choose your favorite ice cream
>without fricking chocolate
Vanilla is my favorite ice cream but even I can tell when this is a shit selection.
Mint Chocolate
I don't think I've ever actually tried mint chocolate in my life despite it being in the house because my sister loved it. It just looks fricking gross, green ice cream ain't right.
There's varieties that aren't green.
mint ice cream = frozen toothpaste
>no side order news
Anyhow. Of these flavours? Vanilla.
I may be a fryegay but I am tempted
A BIG BOWL OF STRAWBERRY ICECREAM
Strawberry obviously
vanilla is for tasteless homosexuals
mint is for the degenerate freaks that started eating toothpaste at a young age and never stopped
>Vanilla
>Strawberry
