Nintendo has revealed the theme for this month's Splatoon 2 Splatfest, and it is...gherkins.

Specifically, Nintendo would like to know if you prefer your burgers festooned with gherkins, or if you'd rather they were left out of the equation all together.

Consider it a sort of spiritual successor to last year's mustard or ketchup conundrum.

🥒 Hmm, this is quite the pickle… Are you gherk-IN or gherk-OUT? Pick a side and battle it out from 14:00 (UK time) next Saturday! #Splatoon2 pic.twitter.com/FbBGXzs5CL

Splatfest begins at 2pm UK time, this Saturday, February 10th, and runs for 24 hours.
