WIN - The NintyBuzz Awards 2016 - Nominations



UPDATE - You have just over 24 hours to submit your nominations!

Another year is nearly over, and even though Nintendo has been a bit quieter with big releases compared to previous years, there were still a fair amount of games that deserve recognition.

The NintyBuzz Awards are back for 2016, and they are bigger than ever. There are now four new categories to vote in, and by nominating, you have a chance to win $50/£50 to spend on the Nintendo eShop!

Check out the categories and rules after the break!



The awards this year now start off with nominations. To nominate, register for a free NintyBuzz account here (if you haven't done so already), then all you have to do is just go to the Nominations page, and post the title of the game you wish to nominate on each thread. Alternatively you can click here to go straight to the page!

Please only post Nintendo games (except the Non-Nintendo Game of the Year category) that have been released since September 1st 2015 (last year). You can only post one nomination in each category, if you post more than one, your most recent nominee will be counted. The threads have been set up so only I can see all the nominations. Nominations will close on the 25th December 2016 at 6pm GMT. Each valid nomination you make will add one entry into the prize draw!

Here are the categories for this year:

• Most Beautiful Game
  
• Best Story 2016
  
• Best Mario Game 2016
  
• Most Unique Game 2016
  
• Most Controversial Announcement/Release 2016
