Sagakeen news segment

TV-Tokyo has a recent video of a news segment:
Sagaken x Nintendo's "Cool" Collaboration (1:07)

Video caption:

In a recent PR event, Saga prefecture (known for its squids) and the town of Yobuko have opened up their event shop today, in collaboration with Nintendo's popular game "Splatoon".
Salted squids, squid buns, and various packages featuring characters from the game are being sold.
Saga prefecture has started promoting the event, via Internet & other means, to appeal to the hardcore fans with the goal of bringing up their decline in tourism.

Various quotes from the video:

-Today, Tokyo tower has a long line, about 300 people have lined up.
-A revolving Christmas tree, with squids!
-Splatoon has sold about 2.4 million copies worldwide.

Reporter: what game are you a fan of?
Girl: I like splatoon.
Edit: corrected "2.4 million players" to "2.4 million copies".
