Think for a second about Nintendo’s biggest games of 2022. There was Pok\u00e9mon Legends: Arceus<\/a>, Kirby and the Forgotten Land<\/a>, Xenoblade Chronicles<\/a>, Bayonetta<\/a> and Splatoon 3<\/a>, Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet<\/a>, the list goes on. It would make sense then, don’t you think, for the company to use one of these in a comical festive pose for its usual ‘Happy Holidays’ social media post, right?<\/p>\n

So what did @NintendoEurope<\/a> decide to go for this year? Was it a cute image of Pawmi and Fuecoco frolicking in the snow? Perhaps a giant snowball shaped like Kirby or the Gura Flava Camp experiencing a heavy frost? Nope, it’s a post from @SplatoonJP<\/a> of an Inkling and two Octolings. And they’re just standing there…<\/p>\n
