  1. Angry Birds doesn’t deserve anything, that should have gone to Cut the Rope.
    And tbh I can’t think of any new/recent nintendo titles that should have one any of those, except skyward sword for one to watch

      1. Oh idk i’ve never heard of that, but I just googled it and it looks good :)
        But whatever it is, I don’t think it should be Angry Birds

  2. Saw this a few days ago. But!!!!! WELL DONE NINTENDO FOR WINNING ONE OF THEM!!!!!!

    HOPE NEXT YEAR NINTENDO WINS INNOVATION AGAIN FOR THE WII U!!!!!!! :D

    1. More like, it would have been different if this had been done after the holiday season when Mario 3D land (mobile game), Skyward Sword (action/adventure game) had come out.

      1. comepletly different? i agree. But not all in favor for nintendo, their are alot of great games coming out this holiday.

  3. I will kill every single @$$hole that got Black Ops the award for Shooter. If anything, it’s the very problem with the genre right now.

    1. yep. That’s why I’m still playin MAG. One of the only games in the past few years that wasn’t trying to be CoD to boost sales.

      1. so what your saying that every single game out there is trying to be call of duty except for mag and a few others? what about batman arkham city red dead redemption la noire gears of war portal 2 uncharted 2 god of war assassins creed brotherhood… there are a ton of games that are not remotely similar to call of duty

  4. I wonder what the time frame is for this list?…..They should of had a side scroller category and DKCR should of been the winner!
