December is a time to goof off — even if you make games.
Nintendo of America just started livestreaming a special tournament for its competitive shooter Splatoon.

This is a “for fun” tournament, but the competitors definitely seem like they are taking it seriously. That is making for some excellent trash talk.

Don’t miss any of the action:
