Nintendo sponsoring 2017 Kids’ Choice Awards

Nintendo will be joining the lineup of sponsors for the 2017 Kids’ Choice Awards. It’s unclear what exactly that role entails, but the show does at least have backing from the big N.

You may have forgotten, but there was a neat little Nintendo segment at the Kids’ Choice Awards last year. Mario and Luigi showed up to present once of the winners, and a live-action Mario sequence was created.

Kids’ Game Awards to be hosted in October, Nintendo on the advisory board

Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 29 Comments

Geoff Keighley kicked off The Game Awards a couple of years ago, and another show will be produced towards the end of this year. In addition to that, Keighley will now be producing the Kids’ Game Awards.

Variety shares the following information about it:

In October, DreamWorksTV, the kid-focused multichannel network that AwesomenessTV launched in 2014, will stage the Kids’ Game Awards, an interactive, all-digital show that will let viewers vote on their favorite video games (in the vein of Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards). The Kids’ Game Awards show will feature special appearances by celebrities, gamers, digital influencers and musical guests. For the Kids’ Game Awards, led by producer Geoff Keighley, AwesomenessTV has also lined up an advisory board that includes Activision, Nintendo and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment.

We should be hearing more about the Kids’ Game Awards – as well as The Game Awards – in the months ahead.
