Salmon Run Rewards

Splatoon 3items themed likeBack to the Future? Right on!

As some folks are pointing out: the cheeky team at Nintendo managed to put in a few clear references via Salmon Run items. The first includes Doc Brown’s futuristic metal sunglasses fromBack to the Future 2, titled the “Lo-Vis Visor.” Next up we have Marty McFly’s future hat (also fromBack to the Future 2), called the “Bream-Brim Cap.”Another spotted referenceincludes the “Brain Strainer” in-game item, which is likely a reference toGhostbuster’s 2Keymaster Helmet.

Funnily enough,Back to the Future 2takes place in the glorious year of 2015: when everything was supposed to be future-ized. While the fullSplatoontimeline isn’t clear, it does play around withthe idea of the fate of the future.
