It wasn’t all smooth sailing, matchmaking errors, communication issues and crashes all weekend, but that’s what this weekend is ultimately for. Nintendo has tweeted from the Japanese Splatoon account that it plans to improve matchmaking and Tricolor Turf War in a future update after release. Many felt that the defending team of four players had too hard of a job, so they’ll likely tweak that.
