The Inklings’ Turf War has gotten out of control in NF’s 15th edition, as the Splatoon cover art has quite literally spilled over into the interior pages. You’ll find many more splashes beyond just those inside, though, from an analysis of all the way’s Nintendo’s PR has set up this all-new IP to succeed to a look back at the push the Big N gave to Final Fantasy on the NES, 25 years ago. Splatoon gets a full review of its own, as does Xenoblade Chronicles 3D – and our featured Interview is with none other than Edmund McMillen, creator of the controversial The Binding of Isaac (which is finally coming to Nintendo platforms).

Print copies of this issue ship with a new double-sided Splatoon poster! On one side, the official art seen on the magazine’s cover and the game’s box is blown up large for your wall. On the reverse, an all-new illustration from Thor Thorvaldson celebrates the fact that nearly all the characters in Splatoon are some kind of marine life by putting the Inkling Girl front-and-center, then surrounding her with a veritable ocean full of aquatic Nintendo characters both past and present. As always, the choice of which side you display is yours!
