Here’s how Amazon says the list is determined:
“Each year, a group of Amazon gamers gets together and picks our top games of the year. Fun gameplay is a common feature of all of these games. For some of them, we invested many, many hours of gameplay time. Other picks on the list are games that we think made a big impact on the gaming industry as a whole. After much debate, analysis, and hands-on gaming time, we’re pleased to present our list of Best Games of 2016.”
Amazon has been selecting the best games of the year for quite some time now. 2015’s list is here, 2014’s list is here, and 2013’s list is here.

Amazon Books now selling the NES Classic Edition
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 3 Comments
Amazon recently teased a couple of “exciting announcements” for the NES Classic Edition. One of these may not be so exciting after all.
Amazon Books have now started to sell the NES Classic Edition. This applies to locations in Seattle, Portland, and San Diego.
We were definitely hoping for bigger and better news (like an online restock) from Amazon. Hopefully that other announcement is a tad more interesting.

Amazon teases “exciting announcements” for the NES Classic Edition to be made “in the coming week”
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 9 Comments
Amazon intends to make “a couple exciting announcements” for the NES Classic Edition. One of the retailer’s Twitter account mentioned the news, while adding that consumers can expect to hear something “in the coming week.”
The tweet reads:
NES Classic fans: we've got a couple exciting announcements to make in the coming week. Stay tuned for more info soon!
— Amazon Video Games (@amazongames) December 7, 2016
At the very least, it’d make sense if one of these announcements were about a restock. We’ll have to wait and see what Amazon has in store beyond that.
