Joysticks: Brawl smashes Galaxy in the face

Friday 31-Oct-2008 2:14 PM Best Nintendo game goes to Super Smash Bros. Brawl

3 Comments

We're in a little bit of shock here as the winner of the Nintendo Game Of The Year, sponsored by Official Nintendo Magazine, was called out. We had our monies on Super Mario Galaxy, bet you did too. But we're not betting people (we lose to many times) and we're glad for that. We don't like losing.

So you voted Super Smash Bros. Brawl as the best Nintendo game of the past year.

Nintendo's first-party beat-'em-up has gone down a storm around the world and it seems you lot like it too. Super Mario Galaxy came a close second, stalked by Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.

Tough choice this one. I do'nt think their is a right answer exactly, could have been any one of at least three. Galaxy, Prime or No More Heroes. Brawl was a good choice in the end.

Everyone is obviously insane! Shocked

Galaxy stands head and shoulders above any game released on the Wii, only Twilight Princess and Okami come anywhere near it and they were released ages ago. Confused

Well Okami Wii was released this year so it could of been a contender. But since this best Nintendo game, not Wii game Confused

people probably voted for the game which gives the most Nintendo fan service, which would be Smash Bros. I personally would vote for neither of them. Metroid Prime and Mario Kart FTW!
