As for the discount, Splatoon 2 will be 20% off during the Special Demo period. The demo save data would carry over to the full game.

 

Splatoon 2 is available for the Nintendo Switch. As a reminder, the Splatoon 2 Special Demo is available to download immediately in the eShop and includes Turf Wars, Ranked Battles, League Battles, and Salmon Run. (Japan’s version of the demo runs March 26 through April 1, 2019.)
