Splatoon Feature in Nintendo's Summer 2024 Magazine
The Great Big Three-Group Summit: A Meeting of Musical Minds
Nintendo's Summer 2024 Magazine (primarily distributed in Japan) features a six-page spread dedicated to the fictional musical acts of the Splatoon franchise. The article centers around "The Great Big Three-Group Summit," an interview featuring:
- Deep Cut (Shiver, Big Man, and Frye)
- Off The Hook (Pearl and Marina)
- Squid Sisters (Callie and Marie)
The interview covers a range of topics, from collaborative projects and festival performances to personal reflections on their journeys within the Splatoon series.
A particularly memorable moment involves Deep Cut giving the Squid Sisters a tour of Splatlands. Callie fondly recalls the breathtaking natural beauty of Scorch Gorge and the vibrant energy of the Hagglefish Market, expressing her amazement at the region's towering structures. Shiver's response, "I hope you appreciated it. We know where the Splatlands shine better than anyone," adds a touch of playful pride.
Marie, ever the witty counterpoint to Callie's enthusiasm, playfully suggests a reunion for all the groups, hinting at Callie's sentimental attachment to the Splatlands experience. The conversation naturally segues into a planned teatime gathering between Off The Hook and the Squid Sisters, a tradition long overdue since their tour commenced. Marina and Pearl extend the invitation to Frye, adding a touch of playful rivalry with a mention of their past karaoke battle.
