Reminder: Spike VGAs in a few hours

I hate to say it, but usually Spike’s Video Game Awards are useless for Nintendo fans. This year should be different, though.

Zelda will be the first inductee into the Video Game Hall of Fame, Skyward Sword is nominated in four categories (including Game of the Year!), and a couple of reveals do pertain to Nintendo platforms. There’ll also be a new trailer for Darksiders II (coming to Wii U) and The Amazing Spider-Man (coming to Wii, 3DS, and DS).

The show begins at 8 PM EDT (5 PM PDT), with a pre-show scheduled a half hour before the main event. U.S. viewers can watch the VGAs on Spike TV or through the stream here. UK viewers can watch a stream here.
