The Game Awards have only just started, and Nintendo has already won an award. It was announced that the award for “Best Handheld Game” is going to Metroid: Samus Returns on Nintendo 3DS. It’s very likely that Nintendo will win more awards, as well as an announcement or two, so stay tuned. We’ll be letting you know of any big Nintendo announcements and awards as the night progresses.
The Game Awards: Metroid: Samus Returns Won The Award For “Best Handheld Game”
YES!!!
YES!!!
GNAR!
Well the entire category was dominated by Nintendo after all :p
Metroid is definitely the best game there though. Was cool to see Ever Oasis as a nominee too.
Yikes. Samus Returns beats Pokemon?! lol
If you didn’t believe Metroid was back before…
…you will now…
Yes!! Metroid finaly wins an award!!
}{ I’m somewhat surprised it wasn’t a switch game… or are they not classifying it as a handheld for some reason…}{
It would appear that TGA is classifying it as a home console with the ability to be taken on the go.
Did I vote for that one? Yeah. Pretty sure I did.
*holds back the excitement that it won the category*
No way dude, this is the time to let it out- Metroid is not only bouncing back, but being recognized. Say what you will about the integrity of TGA, M:SR winning gets it the exposure it needs to do even better and grab more attention, which the series needs.
Of course it won. Its metriod.
Role on prime 4
||The Church of Sasori and his mongrel race of imbreeds will be ashes once we are finished with wave two…||
But Sasori and his inbred followers are xbox fantards. This category had nothing to do with XBOX lol although it does make me laugh to see that the VITA didnt have any nominee’s. I mean, yeah most of them are mediocre to subpar RPG’s but they still had games.
Damn! That was a close one, it couldve gone either way. We’re so lucky that a Nintendo game won over a Nintendo game lol.
*likes comment even though the games I would have voted for for Game of the Year were not in the category so I just didn’t vote as I don’t feel BotW deserves GotY, haven’t played enough of Super Mario Odyssey to make a fully informed vote, & haven’t even touched Horizon: Zero Dawn yet* If only NieR: Automata & Resident Evil 7 made the cut… Of course then I would have had to decide between those two and that would have been a semi-tough decision.
Well by my comments I meant the Mobile platform section lol since it was all Ninty games. As for Goty, I agree with Breath of the Wild. Im playing on Wii U and so far I cant put it down.
