A portion of a Nintendo interview with Splatoon producer Hisashi Nogami ...

Q: What’s your opinion on the Splatoon competitive scene?

A: Splatoon appeals to people of all ages, including families with young kids. We’re very happy about that. On the other hand, we also believe that the game has enough depth to be played competitively. We’re looking forward to watching the competitive scene grow in the future, with this tournament [at Gamescom] as a starting point.

Q: Callie or Marie?

A: As a developer, the game’s characters are like children to me, so this is a very difficult question. It’s like asking which of my daughters I love more. However, I have to admit that I chose Team Callie during the last Splatfest. Unfortunately, that team lost.
