This article covers a recent interview featuring Callie and Marie, the popular Squid Sisters from Nintendo's Splatoon series, and other musical acts within the game's universe. The interview, part of a six-page feature in Nintendo's Summer 2024 magazine, included Deep Cut (Shiver, Big Man, and Frye) and Off The Hook (Pearl and Marina).
The "Great Big Three-Group Summit" discussed collaborations and festival performances. Callie fondly recalled Deep Cut's tour of Splatlands, highlighting the stunning Scorch Gorge and the bustling Hagglefish Market. Marie playfully teased Callie about her sentimental attachment to the trip, suggesting a future reunion with Off The Hook. This led to plans for a teatime get-together and a possible sweets shop visit in Inkpolis Square, with Frye also invited to settle a karaoke score with Pearl.
