Quotes
"It's range is super short, but it gobbles up foes in close-quarters combat. Take them by surprise and there's no escape! The subs will help you get in there, and the special will let you wreck shop once you do."

- Live from the Squid Research Lab

"The perfect weapon for getting up close and personal! High attack power and rate of fire, but its range is extremely limited."

Etymology
Sploosh-o-matic is derived from 'sploosh', a word similar to 'splash', and 'automatic'. The '-o-matic' suffix is also a common, clichéd naming convention for technological gadgets.

ボールドマーカー bōrudo mākā is in reference to the partly pen-based appearance of the Sploosh-o-matic. The name is also to contrast it with the Splash-o-matic. The highly accurate Splash-o-matic is named after a sharp marker pen, while the Sploosh-o-matic with its wide, cone-shaped muzzle is more akin to a bold marker pen.
