So today, we’re going over some Nintendo games that I associate with the holiday season, and aspects of each one that make them special. As a note, not all of these games are inherently festive, because surprisingly few Nintendo games make specific references to Christmas or the holidays. But if you have any holiday memories with a video game not listed here, feel free to share in the comments down below.
