Nintendo’s Super Mario 35th anniversary celebration continues this weekend with a new Splatfest event in Splatoon 2. The game’s Super Mario Splatfest runs from January 15-17, and it asks players to choose between two of the plumber’s most iconic power-ups.
The Splatfest kicks off at 2 PM PT / 5 PM ET and runs for 48 hours. This event asks players which Mario power-up they’d rather have: Super Mushroom or Super Star? You’ll need to cast your vote at the terminal in Inkopolis Square before you can take part in the competition.
As usual, everyone who participates in the Splatfest will earn Super Sea Snails, which can be used to either add a new ability slot to a piece of gear or re-roll one that has already been maxed out. On top of that, Nintendo is giving away commemorative Splatoon 2/Mario 35th anniversary coins to the top 35 players on each team. To be eligible, you’ll need to sign up for the Online Challenge before the Splatfest…
