2013 GDC Awards – Nominees announced
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Podcast Stories, Wii U | 0 comments

The GDC awards are a pretty big deal, because it’s one of the few gaming awards shows that isn’t chosen by the public and isn’t chosen by some big name media company (like the VGAs)– the winners of this award are chosen by developers, for developers. Winning one of these means your peers who work in the same industry as you think highly of your product, and that’s a pretty cool thing!
You can find the nominees for all of the GDC Awards this year (which happens on March 27th at GDC) after the jump.

Now let’s look at Zelda: Skyward Sword’s boxart:

The art definitely shares a few similarities!
Of the art, Vigil said on Facebook:
During the launch of Darksiders II for Wii U, we crafted tribute art around the Darksiders franchise as a tip of the hat to one of our favorite games.
We felt the community and fans of both Vigil and Darksiders should get to see these awesome pieces of work.

Two of Club Nintendo’s most-popular rewards are now missing on the site. Perhaps you’ve noticed that both the 3DS game card case and gold nunchuck are nowhere to be found. They’re not in the “Currently Unavailable” section, as they were in the past.
Are these two rewards gone for good? Let’s hope not!
Thanks to Osh for the tip.
