- With Splatoon 1 shutting down, now seems like the best time to do this video huh
THIS TOOK HEAVY INSPIRATION FROM HEEEW'S "Melee is Broken" if you havent seen it, it is a masterpiece.
Music:
Boss Battle Theme 1 - Kid Icarus Uprising
The Fog (Konishi Remix) - Persona 4 Dancing All Night
Keep Your Faith - Persona 5
(i might like persona idk)
lets pray ProChara doesnt make the same video today - Hry
Splatoon 1 is a Balanced Game!
And 50 other jokes you can tell yourself
Splatoon launched on your birthday? Splatoon is dying on my birthday 😢.
Kid Icarus Uprising 3DS is balanced! There certainly isn't a video by me titled "Kid Icarus Uprising 3DS is broken" about it!
Also about KIU:
-Weapon modifiers in general are balanced instead of warranting a video that calls out various abuses that they enable!
-Items like Smart Bomb are well balanced, instead of involving things like continuous freeze frames that mock Super Armor!
-Celestial Fireworks is a balanced Power, and is most certainly not anything like the "Bubbler" thing that you described!
-Gemini Orbitars is balanced! It most certainly does not have a Forward or Side Shot capable of being undodgeable at 50 meters with just Homing Boost!
-Raptor Claws is a very elegant weapon! It definitely doesn't involve one-note gameplay of "just breathe on the other guy with your melee" for absurd reward for being one of the most mobile weapon types in the game!
-The Freeze debuff is not degenerate! You simply got 40s base damage breathed upon you and thus deserve to be a completely immobilized punching bag with no consolation if you're not ridiculously quick with the Effect Recovery!
-The UI is great! Who needs to know whether somebody has Powers like Super Armor, Petrify Attack, Homing Boost, Slip Shot, Libra Sponge, Lightweight, or Bumblebee active without having to look at the bottom screen?
(Note: Libra Sponge is viewable on the player but can be blocked by Aries Armor. It's also hard to discern from Energy Charge, which already sees popular use, without checking the bottom screen.)
-It's wonderful to not be able to decipher how long Powers with variable duration (LIGHTWEIGHT) have been active just because the user just happened to have picked up an item!
And this is the stuff that comes to mind that a remaster should address.
whoops prochara made the exact same video today
When you think about it, Splatoon 1 is balanced, because everything is overpowered!
Splat1 was a broken game but it was MY broken game. I’m gonna miss it 😭
damn right pokaie
Look up pretendo. splatoon still lives
It was broken but fun
You can still play it I’m pretty sure it has fanmade online servers like Mario kart wii
ur so right
Just from the intro, I was like "No they don't???"
And when EVERYTHING'S BROKEN...... nothing will be.....

Unironically this is a great approach to balancing any video game and often leads to better results than a game that tries too hard to be balanced

it may be the least balanced entry, utterly broken and even unplayable at times/soon to be completely, but this was the game that sold me on motion controls supporting sticks in fpses
Surprisingly, it's the most balanced entry and the one with the fewest internet/online issues
I will never forget my journey with Splatoon 1…The day they showed the first trailer I was fascinated, I would keep up with any and all news I could find on it…then the day if the Splatoon Global Testfire came…Parents weren’t home, brother had football, just me and the testfire…I played non stop for each time it came on, I played roller, I played and played loving every little thing about the game…The game officially released and I loved it so so much…Then came 2 And then 3…I saw this franchise start and grow over the years and im so happy I am apart of it…And that I was there from the very beginning, This game will always hold a special place in my heart and I will never forget it.
Splatoon 1 was peak splatoon change my mind
I refuse to change your mind
If you died with heavy depletion you could kiss your entire special goodbye
i never got to play splatoon 1
i wish everything in splatoon 3 was broken like it was in 1
splatoon 1 nostalgia was insane, but now it’s time for you to make the memories we reminisce on
There's a reason they had to scrap all the specials from this game when 2 came around lol
@@Spectacular66 It's crazy because I think the single biggest mistake they ever made was completely deleting every old special and replacing them with ones that are way less satisfying to use and range from stupid to useless
>chara immediately puts out s splatoon 1 is broken video after this
Do you splatoon 1 people need a hug?
Yes 😢
Maybe 💀
Having only played Splatoon 1 for the first time in that week the servers shut down, yes. Not because Splatoon 1 was so hell but because it was actually more balanced than the other two games and now they're stuck with either pretendo servers or having to play the two worse games
@@Freelancer837 *Played it once
*Claims it's the best because it's balanced
Did you watch the video?
"If everythings overpowered nothing is" thats why splatoon 1 is balanced
This is unrelated but fire music choices

@@_EthanStone Don't forget Kid Icarus Peakrising.
Why does the fog slap so mucgh.
Played splat 1 right when it came out, I was actually so in love with the idea of splatoon with the directs and stuff. Anyways Splatoon 1 will always be in my heart as “that one broken game that is actually fun and good”. Btw I really like the persona songs playing in the background 👌
PEAKSONA
even thought s1 was a game full of instant activation special weapons, INKZOOKA HAS MORE START-UP THAN TRIZOOKA.
1:45 One slight critique here, you absolutely can jump out and I even remember doing it myself a few times. It's just that jumping out is worse in general in splatoon 1 (one sub of quick super jump isn't a thing, stealth jump neuters your ability to escape with it, and quick respawn makes it less worth anyway). So while you still can't really jump out, toxic mist isn't what's stopping that from being an option.
Otherwise though this is pretty spot on lol
Nice take on the “is broken” series
hi luci :)
I wonder what you’re doing looking up Splatoon 1 is broken
@@_EthanStone showed up on my reccomended today lol
@@Luci_4k yippee!
although I wouldn’t be surprised if you guys have been working on one for chara. I can’t wait to see it if you have
@@_EthanStone Yeah I was making my own version as well, I've personally been working it since spring break started.
Glad to see that your video is being picked up by the alogrithm!
@@Luci_4k it’s nice that both of us did the same concept but yours had more niche things that even I didn’t know about, beautifully edited videos as always luci
Carbon's got nothing against all the meta weapons 😭
That being said, this is a pretty cool video! I'm glad you're bringing attention to this game. I really do hope more pick it up with Pretendo...
1:11 I can’t believe that in the 6 years that I’ve played this game I have never noticed that the three dummies have a different kind of defense 😅
Splatoon fans: Yeah, I’m gonna miss this fun broken game
Me:
Dang this does suck
Let's goo we got the Heeew's broken style videos for Splatoon.
Glad you could make it and record all the clips before the server shuts down👍
if you want more, prochara made a splatoon 2 is broken a few days before splatoon 3 came out
we love melee
@@_EthanStone oh dang it he also made the splatoon 1 version😅 Don't worry both of you have your own uniqueness. I like that you included more and longer clips
“Let’s pray ProChara doesn’t make the same video today”

Edit: Ok nvm he linked this in the description of his video lol
RIP Splatoon 1. You will be missed
Awesome video, dude. I remember the days of Splatoon 1, for better and for worse. Good times.
6:46
It actually struggled against Cherry H-3 because it couldn't run as much QR, it had to run Run Speed instead
I remember using carbon roller deco with seekers and seeker swarm to fuck with bad players in the Greenhouse map, good times
I actually managed to get consistent splats with seeker, if the enemy team isn’t paying attention it can easily one-shot them. The only problem is you have to make sure that your secret is going to be able to reach them.
ty for this video, ive never played S1, but this helped me understand why S1 is great
im sorry but i dont think anyone in the history of ever has called splat 1 balanced 😂 loved the video though!
Back in the day I would complain on Reddit that Damage Up broke the game. They actually *defended it*. Am I right now, losers?
splatoon 1 splash-o-matic my beloved
(IN MY OPINION) That's what made Splatoon fun
And that's why Splatoon 1 will forever be the best Splatoon game (IN MY OPINION)
If everything is broken... NOTHING IS BROKEN!!
Bomb rush is like fizzbang and 2 zone floors in SO being a nightmare is kina a reference to s1!
I think Bomb Rush got replaced with Super Chump. They both scatter individual "bombs" around a certain area, the difference being that the bombs from Bomb Rush/Bomb Launcher are released one at a time whereas Super Chumps are released all at once.
@gregheffley5745 yeah, and ofc it's based off of Marina's Hyperbombs from OO and MC Princess Diaries
I didn't mention this in my first comment, because it was already getting long enough: I preferred when the Zink Mini Splatling had Curling Bomb and Ink Storm. Also, the Custom E-Liter 4K Scope was my favorite charger in Splatoon 1, but only because charge storing didn't exist. In Splatoon 2, it's the New Squiffer, and in Splatoon 3, it's the Splat Charger.
From what I remember playing, using Seeker launcher in the long part of Flounder Heights will crash the server.
I still enjoyed this game despite all the chaos of the stuff that was broken! Man, I had so much fun with the N-ZAP ‘89 and even going all out to get to S+ during the last days of the online servers… even more so how I tried multiple times but had crappy teammate’s who wouldn’t listen to me and anyone who was willing to assist. XD
Great video BTW! 🎉
I’m gonna miss it
Literally no one has ever called Splatoon 1 balanced
Honestly I like this game better than any other in the series with all of the broken stuff this game has, it just makes matches more fast paced and there really isn’t a weapon that feels underpowered as long as you smother it with enough cheese
They had it add another kilo onto e-liter because its range was too gosh darn big. That thing was so oppressive and if you could even hit someone with it from time to time they HAD to respect you. Oh yeah and they later gave it kraken! Fun… (it was fun but not in a balanced way like all of Sploon1 and I miss it every day)
I remember when I got my wiiu I was so hyped as it wasn’t even my birthday and splatoon was one of the games I got and I loved it so much to the point I got all the amiibo for it and to this day it’s annoying that they are getting rid of the servers I met so many people online that I could call real friends, the wiiu was a great console maybe not the best out of the generation but the greatest and most memorable to me
what a game, man, what a game. i'm gonna miss it so much.
Surprisingly - in this final hours i didn't seem to find ANY hackers/cheaters in the game.
I guess even they decides to «screw this, let's have some NORMAL fun»
Meanwhile i sadly never found hackers in the game
Just wanted to see how it feels like for a match
But it never happened to me, ever
Splatoon 3s balancing aint exactly stellar, but its miles better than this
Aah, exactly what I've been waiting for! Where's my popcorn
Honestly Splatoon with no respawn timer would be so damn good (except Anarchy battles)
One piece of jank that I wouldn't at all mind to see return are the maps. Were they weird? Yes. Unbalanced? Yes, sometimes even literally. Competitively unviable? C'mon, you don't even have to ask that one.
But above all else, they were goofy fun, goddamnit-
And this is what made SPLATOON… SPLATOON!
Why nintendo? 😩 why did you have to do this? You know how muched i loved the abilities and specials
And by the way theres a chance that slosher could get burst bomb again but on a different one
We don't talk about that i mained squiffer since splatoon 1
“This special can disintegrates teams in seconds”
As someone who used rapid pro for the remaining time in ranked…. I can agree 💀
I got a wipeout once
I’m one of the very unlucky players to not able to play this broken masterpiece of a game
Seeing gameplay for the very first time was something special that I wish I’ve experience myself
i still don’t know how tf yall have four of the same abilities on one gear there were no tickets or chunks back then did you just gamble real hard
splash o matic slays btw. inkzooka snipe compilation
In Pretendo Network we trust to revive it
As a former Dual Squelchers main, I can confirm that the weapon and sub weapon combo paired with the Echolocator was the most broken piece of shit ever, and I'm not apologetic about it. I'mma miss it dearly...
I never played The original Splatoon but now I wish I did. All of the “broken” mechanics look fun!
They’re fun in a nostalgic looking back at them, I wouldn’t want to play this in comp lmao
Unfortunately for me, I had no way of enjoying my final moments of Splatoon 1. That's because since 2021, I have stored my old Wii U in the ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) behind my house. This year my dad started renting out our ADU to people to use as a home, and when they announced the shutdown, there was someone using the ADU, and they had it until October. That meant my Wii U was totally inaccessible to me. Otherwise, I would've been playing Splatoon 1 practically every free second I got until the shutdown.
The better Quick Respawn was a prime reason why I still loved Splatoon 1. That will probably be the thing I miss the most.
The Aerospray is already almost a 4HKO. You barely need Damage Up to enable 4HKO mode. The best feature of Damage Up, though, is that it affects sub weapons as well. I really don't like how they got rid of Damage Up/Main Power Up in Splatoon 3. And Defense Up was indeed another thing I miss.
I didn't really like the special depletion system. The only problem I had with it was that my favorite weapon, the Gold Dynamo Roller, ended up getting a 75% depletion. It's like having Respawn Punisher, but rock bottom.
I can understand why they replaced Disruptor with Toxic Mist. But even so, Disruptor is hands down the worst sub in Splatoon 1 in my opinion.
Perhaps the Burst Bomb combo having been broken is the reason why we no longer have a slosher with Burst Bomb. But if it was up to me, the Dread Wringer would have Burst Bomb and Booyah Bomb.
Although I do like the Inkzooka better than the Trizooka, I also like the Inkjet better than the Inkzooka. Even so, the brokenness of the Inkzooka was real.
I do wish the Dual Squelcher returned. If it was up to me, the Dual Squelcher would have Suction Bomb and Ink Armor in Splatoon 2, then Suction Bomb and Tacticooler in Splatoon 3, and the Custom Dual Squelcher would have Squid Beakon and Ink Storm in Splatoon 2, then Squid Beakon and Ink Vack in Splatoon 3.
I also don't like them getting rid of the Bomb Launchers in Splatoon 3. I do, however, consider Super Chump to be a successor to it.
In conclusion, I'm gonna miss Splatoon 1. Hopefully with mods we'll be able to bring it back in the future.
i forget how small splat1 maps are
As someone who never got to play splatoon and had splatoon 3 as my first game in the series, this game looks like heaven. I want to play it sooo bad lol
And it will truly be missed lol
DS was a different weapon from Jet. It was more like Splattershot Pro that could ink. Think Nova except accurate and 4-shot.
Also don't you dare S1 Moray Zones. It was the best.
Also, you've never talked about how borked Nozzlenoses became with run speed up. L3 could outrun Mini.
those carbon roller players with all damage up gear and japanese names… everytime i see a carbon roller in S2 or S3 I get really scared fr
dont forget the eliter players
@@Vytalics oh no
I want my wii back
we can still play on pretendo if enough people use it!
KID ICARUS OST REFERENCE 🗣️‼️ WTF IS A GOD OST ⁉️🦅
The worst is that compared to 2 and 3, this IS a very balanced game. A lot of the problem weapons are also weapons that weren't in the game at launch either
Splatoon 1 was so fun for how dumb everything was, though I can agree the pain and trauma it left me will never be undone, fuck the Kraken and Damage/Defense Up
DIdnt even mention that damage up affects subs smh
also only 1 ink mine which has a one shot you never hit, but no location effect. Also placing another one doesn't denote it
They better do splatoon 1 deluxe for the switch
...Are hackers really all that prevalent in Splat 1? I've heard many people talk about how many there are, but after 100 or so hours of playing (most of which in 2018 and later), I've encountered... like, 3? Nowhere near as many as I hear other people suggest. Maybe I've just lucky??
Well done video btw! Gonna miss 1's official support
Same, at some point everyone was making videos with splatoon 1 hackers in them at the splatoon2 time
And everyone talking about how easily and fast they met hackers in public lobbies
And when i tried to play for hours to meet at least one hacker it was completely unsuccessful
2:14 I felt it
im gonna feel so empty when this game dies
was broken 😔
to defence of splatoon 1, it's more fun becouse everything is broken, there is no useless special and every weapon is useful, while in splatoon 3 there is just few specials that are ultra broken and most are weak, good example of bad balance in splat 3 is bubbler vs any special that deals dmg (inkzooka, kraken, triple inkstrike, booyah bomb) becouse bubbler doesn't have enough health to be as good as any other special, same with inkjet and zipcaster, it's too easy to destroy, while booyah bomb and triple splashdown get armors even tho they are too op already while specials that require armor to be any useful (i know they are useful but they are too hard for most of casuals becouse there are much stronger weapons that counter them) don't get any, it's much harder to attack with inkjet than booyah bomb
Me as a dual squelchers main: it is not useless >:(
i have so many memories with this game
ever since 2015 ive always wanted it, and in christmas 2018 i got to play it, and it did live up to what i was expecting
i will never not love this game
heyyy you seem kinda familiar
@@Gerton999 hello
@@grumos8455 hi there grumos
I always hated Bubbler and Kraken's invincibility
Good thing Bubbler is not a thing anymore
Tho got very disappointed when they added back Kraken and saw it still has invincibility...
Yeah it has start and end lag
But it doesn't change it is just a panic button that works a ton

Quick Respawn and Stealth Jump (and the gear ability that speeds up your super jumps) all exist in S2 and S3 as well. They may not have been as strong, but it's not like these were S1-exclusive abilities.
Sub strafing is not "broken" by any means. It also isn't exclusive to S1.
QR and stealth jump are in the future games, but the way they function was changed to not be busted like in s1. Stuff like having the Stealth jump marker visible when you are near it, or QR only activating when you didn't get a splat. In S1, these balancing measures weren't there. QR activated all the time no matter what and stealrh jump was Completely invisible. This is what made those abilities broken compared to now
@@kirbybim3684 just look up in the sky like what the comp players did (desolate)
sub strafing was also not available on beakon weapons as well but they patched it into the game in an early update in S2.
I take this video more as a "there's a list of what made splat1 feel like splatoon1" as they mentionned a bunch of stuff that aren't broken
Majority are broken
But some aren't and they even admitted it in their video in some points
No commentary jusy like a video straight out of 2015
everyone loves the is broken genre
I thought that the dual squelchers do the same damage and fire rate of the nzap
Wrong. The Dual Squelcher has the same fire rate as the Splattershot, which is one bullet every 6 frames; the N-Zap fires every 5 frames. To make up for this, the Dual Squelcher has longer range.
@@gregheffley5745 ok. Good know, is the damage the same tho?
@@Splat56 Yes they have the same range.
I just started playing Splatoon 1 (haven't played the series since Chaos vs Order thanks to new methods and a growing neo Wii U fanbase and uh... yeah...
I either play Classic Squiffer because Bubbler or I lose. It's that simple! :,)
This game is a god damn mess and it got so much better with its sequels but with me being so out of the loop I am having fun with this Chaos. Maybe Pearl was destined to win after all...
I like how people still say OG quick respawn is better 💀 maybe gamplay wise it is, but it’s not balanced at all.
Maybe if splat2 made it so if you got kills, it increases the respawn time a bit so you still have some quick respawn (basically it would be half effective) but saying the original one in splat1 is better is just wrong.
Also kraken is still op. The special is still a panic button just like bubbler, and the whole knockback thing doesn’t work unless it’s two people or a weapon that shoots fast.
The bomb rush literally makes the frame rate bad, which is why that special is broken. Damage up for everything is also toxic as hell, even if you have defence up, you’d need an equal amount of defence up to counter damage up.
They really need to make s4 broken again. The balance sucks
Can't believe ProNoun copied you
Inkzooka has 220p, so it wasn't even that good by comparison since you got it very rarely.
Inkstrike was far to slow and you can paint over it to prevent zone caps.
The specials to have were bubbler and kraken. Instant activation invincibility specials, both can be knocked back but they are EXTREMELY hard to fight.
Inkstrike was my favorite special. The 220 points for Inkzooka didn't really matter if you played Aerospray MG, Mini Splatling, or Sploosh O'Matic 7. Regardless, if it was up to me, the special that needed 220 points would've been Kraken, not Inkzooka.
@@gregheffley5745 Aerospray and sploosh may be able to get zookas, but they can't fight without it. Mini has a god kit with disruptor bubbler, almost no reason to go zooka. Kraken can at least be fought or avoided via grates, but it is still broken and has 200p. And yes, "is" because you can use Pretendo to play online. It is a bit buggy rn, but it works and this is the worst it will ever be, only up from here.
@@levibruner7553 Gonna have to disagree with you on Mini. I consider Disruptor to be the worst sub in the game and Bubbler to be awful too, not to mention that it has a 75% depletion. I preferred when the Zink Mini Splatling had Curling Bomb and Ink Storm. Also I am looking forward to using Pretendo in the future.
I DONT care about it bro, I just want MY splatoon 1 back again 😞
Splatoon 1 WAS broken, it’s been shut off
Pretendo network:
2:25 ironically enough they never did! (Im not sure if this is a hot take) If you put s1 zooka in s3 with its mechanics they trizooka is outclassed.
0:00 yesbecause you can laugh it off try and fight charge your overpowered special and combat it back again with most of the games. The maps are the problem.
