Appealing to kids is the only way to grow sustainably over a long time. Adults do not become gamers, and gamer adults are mostly invested in established franchises and genres. So the only way to grow your player base is appealing to the young. But their attempt to appeal to the young gamer has been ineffective. And that's why Wii U is doing so poorly. They don't know how to appeal to the young gamer, they can't appeal to adult gamers who aren't already Nintendo fans.

Splatter has a similar problem. It overtly appeals to the young, it also appeals to the Nintendo adult core. But the young, as has been pointed out, don't want cartoony paint shooters, they actually want CoD. The young also want voice chat because they want to give friends and strangers shit while they're playing. A lot of adults prefer to play without the constant drone annoying and often offensive chatter. 

Splatoon is designed to be inclusive of young audiences, but not to the exclusion of adult players. Nothing about it is geared exclusively to children; adults can enjoy colourful visuals too, and in fact most of its players will be adults, because, as you say, the kids are busy playing GTA and COD.

Isn't that Illegal?
