Callie vs. Marie

Callie vs. Marie was a Splatfest event in Splatoon. It was held globally. It was announced on 2016-06-30. The results were given on 2016-07-24.

Details
Callie vs. Marie was the final Splatfest in Splatoon, pitting the two Squid Sisters against each other. Hence, several exclusive features were put in place to celebrate. It was the first Splatfest that lasted for 48 hours instead of the usual 24 hours. After 24 hours, the battle music changed from Ink Me Up to a very slightly modified version of Calamari Inkantation.

A vote took place prior to the event, where voters selected the stages they wanted to play for this Splatfest. The vote was conducted by email; a ballot was emailed to all Splatoon players with a Nintendo Network ID.

Poll results from each region were combined for the stage selection.

The full name of each choice was "I'm team CALLIE" and "I'm team MARIE". The team name portion of Splatfest titles was "Callie" and "Marie".

The three stages selected for this Splatfest were Kelp Dome, Moray Towers, and Walleye Warehouse.

Trivia

 * A Callie vs. Marie final Splatfest was not initially planned by Nintendo; Splatoon producer Hisashi Nogami stated that the production team did not settle on the theme until they saw what a "great reaction" it had from fans.
 * The development of Splatoon 2 had already started when the Callie vs. Marie Splatfest was taking place, and the production team had decided at that time to have its result reflected in the story of the sequel. They originally thought to announce the Splatfest with the phrase "Your choice will change the next Splatoon", but ultimately decided against this, as the sequel had not then been announced.
 * Instead, the Squid Sisters Stories were published online preceding the release of Splatoon 2. The Stories show what happened to the Squid Sisters after the final Splatfest; they rocketed to new heights of popularity and began focusing on their solo careers, causing them to drift apart and set up the events of Splatoon 2 ' s single-player mode.
 * Nogami fought on behalf of Team Callie and was disappointed with the results of the Splatfest.
 * While replaying the final boss battle of Splatoon 2, Marie states that the fight reminds her of this Splatfest, presumably due to the subject matter of Callie actually fighting against Marie.
 * When Marie joins the battle, the song changes to Tidal Rush; the performer is listed as DJ Octavio feat. Callie vs. Marie, named after the Splatfest.
 * The previous North American Splatfest Early Bird vs. Night Owl foreshadowed a Splatfest between the two Squid Sisters. During the results, the two got in an argument, with Marie stating that during the next Splatfest, they "play for keeps", with Callie agreeing, stating that things "just got personal." However, no such argument occurred for the Japanese or European Splatfests.
 * To coincide with this event, many Squid Sisters-themed tie-ins and promotions were put in place during July 2016, the month of the Splatfest, particularly in Europe.
 * The Squid Sisters amiibo were released on 2016-07-08.
 * Also on 2016-07-08, the Squid Sisters at Japan Expo 2016 concert was held - their first one outside of Japan. It had the same set list as their second concert at Chokaigi 2016, but with French dialogue in between songs. The live band's stage presence was also given more of an emphasis in this concert.
 * The Splatfest Memories competition for Art Academy was announced, where players could submit Splatfest-themed artwork.
 * The Squid Sisters' songs City of Color, Ink Me Up and Calamari Inkantation were added to the European catalog of Wii Karaoke U with romanized lyrics on 2016-07-28. These songs were already added to the Japanese JOYSOUND catalog in January earlier that year.
 * Splatoon received a 25% discount on the European Nintendo eShop from July 27, 2024 on 2016-07-07 to July 27, 2024 on 2016-07-21.
 * The Splatfest Tees for this Splatfest say "Aori" and "Houtaru", the Squid Sisters' Japanese names.
 * The data distributed to American copies of the game contains earlier drafts of the Japanese dialogue and the European English dialogue.
