Nintendo's Summer 2024 Magazine features a delightful interview with Splatoon's musical icons! Callie and Marie of the Squid Sisters, Pearl and Marina of Off The Hook, and Deep Cut (Shiver, Frye, and Big Man) reveal behind-the-scenes moments in a special "Great Big Three-Group Summit."

The six-page spread delves into collaborations, festival performances, and heartwarming memories. Callie fondly recounts Deep Cut's tour of the Splatlands, highlighting the breathtaking Scorch Gorge and the bustling Hagglefish Market. Shiver's playful response confirms their insider knowledge of the region's hidden gems.

Marie playfully teases Callie's emotional attachment to the Splatlands trip, prompting a reunion suggestion with Off The Hook. This leads to plans for a long-overdue teatime, including an invitation to Frye for a rematch of their karaoke battle and a trip to a new sweets shop in Inkpolis Square.
