The Preemptive 2008 Game Awards

Why wait a whole year to give out a pile of, let's face it, mostly meaningless awards?

Words: Tyler Wilde, GamesRadar US

Best game made by Nintendo that includes Mario

Winner: Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Super Smash Bros. Brawl will keep Wii owners entertained until Nintendo releases its next console, which we’re tentatively going to assume will inject nicotine into player’s veins, because it’ll have to if it wants to outdo SSBB.

Not only does the game introduce new characters and levels, it will allow players to create their own levels and record videos of their matches, making it even more time-consuming than the already great Super Smash Bros. Melee.

Runner up: Mario Kart Wii

The word “kart” is clearly defined in the dictionary as being a vehicle with four wheels, yet Mario Kart Wii features motorcycles, which we’re fairly certain have two wheels. Despite this minor infraction, we’re confident that Mario Kart Wii will both include Mario and be one of the best Wii games released thus far. 12 players online helps.
