In an exclusive feature in Nintendo's Summer 2024 Magazine, the beloved fictional pop duo from Splatoon, Callie and Marie of the "Squid Sisters," along with other iconic music groups from the franchise, shared heartwarming insights during a candid interview. This gathering, dubbed "The Great Big Three-Group Summit," brought together Shiver, Big Man, and Frye from "Deep Cut," Pearl and Marina from "Off The Hook," and the Squid Sisters themselves. The groups discussed their musical collaborations, festival performances, and personal journeys within the Splatoon universe.

Callie fondly reminisced about a memorable tour of the Splatlands, guided by Deep Cut. "I hope you appreciated it. We know where the Splatlands shine better than anyone," Shiver remarked proudly. Callie was particularly enchanted by the natural beauty of Scorch Gorge and the bustling crowds of Hagglefish Market, describing the experience as unforgettable. Marie playfully teased Callie about her emotional attachment to the memory and suggested a reunion with Off The Hook over their usual teatime, which had been neglected due to their busy tour schedules. Marina proposed a visit to a new sweets shop in Inkopolis Square, while Pearl extended an invitation to Frye for another karaoke battle, promising a fun-filled gathering.
