It doesn't follow proper noun capitalization. * Backpedaling the existence of a tag after learning that I should not have reverse-translated the tag to English. * Enforcing the in-game terminology for maps/modes. In Spanish, Stages are called "Escenarios" and modes are called "Estilos" Don't ask me why. That's what localization decided. * Re-translating "Top Search" in Latino Spanish "Busquedas Populares" means "Popular Searches" "Búsqueda X 500 mejores" is more accurate to what we can do. We can search the X Top 500. * Backwalked retroactive creation of tag locale string Backwalking my creation of the string "tag.name.FULL_TOURNAMENT" as it wasn't present in English when I started translating, but present in Spanish. * Removed period in error string * Continued Improvements to Latino Spanish Fixed missing accent letters, corrected typos, and finally have the missing keys in a commit. * Making the LINTer Happy

| Splatoon 3 Breaks Sales Records in Japan | 2022-09-12 | Riczi |
Nintendo is known for developing some of the biggest video game franchises in the world. From Pokémon to Mario to Legend of Zelda, Nintendo has created some of the most well-known and memorable games and characters in history. You would think that one of these franchises hold the record for most sales on release of a new game. You would be wrong.
Splatoon 3 released in September of 2022 and it is shattering sales records in Japan. In just three days, the game sold nearly three and a half million copies in Japan alone. This crushed the previous record held by Animal Crossing: New Horizons which sold 2.6 million copies when it released at the beginning of Covid-19.
The Splatoon franchise has been a fan-favorite in Japan for years. The first game released on the Wii U back in 2015, with Splatoon 2 debuting on the Nintendo Switch just a couple of years after. Despite huge success in their home country, Nintendo hasn't seen Splatoon take off in other countries quite as well. The arrival of Splatoon 3 may cause an increase in popularity in western countries where the game series hasn't quite reached yet.
Splatoon has a thriving competitive scene that is welcoming new players into its ranks. Top players in the United States and Europe such as ProChara and ThatSrb2DUDE create content with the hope that players in their respective regions will enter the Splatlands with the same amount of hype being generated in Japan.
