Nintendo's Italian plumber Mario caught the eye of the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences at this year's Interactive Achievement Awards, nabbing an award for Adventure Game of the Year. If there was one game that could be classified as an "adventure" back in 2007, we would definitely have to say Super Mario Galaxy.
Also, Nintendo ended up walking away with another award. The winner of Handheld Game of the Year was none other than The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. As for the other awards, none were for Nintendo or games on Nintendo platforms. So, you could probably care less.

Good news but I don't know how I feel about SMG. Sure it's pretty and the score is amazing. But the gameplay is a little odd for me. I can't tell if it is good or bad. The tiny worlds aren't exactly fun. If only each world was a good bit bigger and was a more challenging puzzle to navigate it would be super fun.

I loved SMG. It def. made my top 5 games of all time list, along with Super Mario World. I wasn't a big fan of Phantom Hourglass, though. And I usually love all the Zelda games.

Definitely an excellent game that probably didn't get as much praise as it really deserved. I for one give this and Super Smash Brawl alot of praise.
