Of course, another big component of The Game Awards are new announcements. After skipping 2021 entirely, Nintendo did have a presence this year. Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon was unveiled and the Expansion Pass for Fire Emblem Engage was shown. There was some third-party news as well such as Hellboy Web of Wyrd and Hades II.

Now that The Game Awards 2022 are over, what did you think about the overall event? How do you feel about Nintendo’s announcements and other reveals as well as the winners? Let us know in the comments.

[Let’s Talk] The Game Awards 2022 hopes and dreams

Posted on 2 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Let's Talk | 0 comments

The Game Awards are just under two weeks away, so we wanted to host a discussion topic talking about hopes and dreams.

The Game Awards has become one of the major events of the year alongside E3, Gamescom, and the Tokyo Game Show for news and announcements. Nintendo itself has had many memorable moments. The Game Awards hosted the first real footage of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, revealed Joker for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and more. However, we can’t always count on announcements from the Big N given how the company was a no show in 2021 and 2015. Still, even if Nintendo is absent, we can usually count on third-party news – last year, for example, included the announcement of Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, the first trailer for Sonic Frontiers, and more.

With all of that said, what are you hoping for when it comes to The Game Awards 2022? Are there any Nintendo games or third-party titles you’re hoping will make an appearance? What’s your choice for Game of the Year (see all of the nominees here)? Let us know in the comments.
