For Nintendo, the partnership confirms the company’s commitment to the development of mainstream esports. Nintendo UK Head of Communications Kalpesh Tailor said: “We are proud to once again support NSE and bring the latest addition to the Splatoon series to university students, offering more opportunities for the interested student gaming community to compete online and in person. .”
