Quotes

SRL Musicology here, pumped to reveal a new Chirpy Chips single and music video! Yeah, Ballistics and Fashion Desk and pretty much everyone else is yelling that this is actually the Chill Season trailer (coming 12/1, BTW), but we're focused on the retro synth chiptune bassline!

"No Quarters", the new single from chiptune champs Chirpy Chips, lands 01/12! Their music video features never-before-seen footage of #Splatoon3 – a sneak peek at Chill Season 2023, perhaps?

Trivia

  • Presumably due to an oversight, this song and Slopping Spree started playing in multiplayer battles after the 6.0.0 update released on 30 November 2023 at 01:00 UTC, rather than at the official start of Chill Season 2023 at 1 December 2023.

Etymology

No Quarter is a military command to not take prisoners. Quarters are often used as currency in arcades.

The term "counter stop" is a Japanese term used commonly for arcade games for a programmed maximum value, such as the player's score, added to prevent the counter from overflowing. When applied to score it represents a perfect score, as it is not possible to exceed this value.
