Amazingly, this trend is still continuing over a year after the former&#8217;s release.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday saw the 14th British Academy Games Awards (or BAFTA Games Awards) take place in London. Celebrating the best games of 2017, the event played host to numerous awards for some extremely well-deserving titles, and Nintendo&#8217;s evergreen efforts certainly played their part.<\/p>\n<p>Breath of the Wild was nominated in a whopping total of five categories: Artistic Achievement; Best Game; Game Design; Music; and Game Innovation, winning the last one in that list for good measure. Super Mario Odyssey was nominated for three awards, losing out to opponents in the Best Game category, but taking home both the Family and Game Design awards.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re interested, here&#8217;s a full list of the winners:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fellowship:\u00a0<\/strong>Tim Schafer<br \/><strong>Artistic Achievement:\u00a0<\/strong>Hellblade: Senua&#8217;s Sacrifice<br \/><strong>Audio Achievement:\u00a0<\/strong>Hellblade: Senua&#8217;s Sacrifice<br \/><strong>Best Game:\u00a0<\/strong>What Remains Of Edith\u00a0Finch<br \/><strong>British Game:\u00a0<\/strong>Hellblade: Senua&#8217;s Sacrifice<br \/><strong>Debut Game:\u00a0<\/strong>Gorogoa<br \/><strong>Evolving Game:\u00a0<\/strong>Overwatch<br \/><strong>Family:\u00a0<\/strong>Super Mario Odyssey<br \/><strong>Game Beyond Entertainment:\u00a0<\/strong>Hellblade: Senua&#8217;s Sacrifice<br \/><strong>Game Design:\u00a0<\/strong>Super Mario Odyssey<br \/><strong>Game Innovation:\u00a0<\/strong>The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild<br \/><strong>Mobile Game:\u00a0<\/strong>Golf Clash<br \/><strong>Multiplayer:\u00a0<\/strong>Divinity: Original Sin 2<br \/><strong>Music:\u00a0<\/strong>Cuphead<br \/><strong>Narrative:\u00a0<\/strong>Night In The Woods<br \/><strong>Original Property:\u00a0<\/strong>Horizon Zero Dawn<br \/><strong>Performer:\u00a0<\/strong>Melina Juergens as Senua in Hellblade: Senua&#8217;s Sacrifice<\/p>\n<p>A worthy list of winners?
