The list was pretty awful, as most Nintendo games stopped after the halfway mark, but Galaxy certainly deserves the top spot. The game was flawless and set a brand new standard for platformers.

Surprised that the best game of the generation was on hardware very similar to that of the previous.

To blessed to be stressed.

It's one of if not the favorite game of all time. It's was universally loved. But I didn't think it would be #1. Congrats!

Was Mariobro4. No, I'm not taking off my backpack...it's important.

The only recent games I can think of any way they could be better are :

Portal 2
Super Hexagon
Donkey Kong Country Returns

(Portal 2 especially because my natural bias was against).

I thought it was a pretty good list, and SMG is a deserving number one for sure. Criticising them for not having Wii Fit on there? Okay...

Mario Galaxy was a great game, it had its flaws, but so does every game. I'm surprised to see Twilight Princess at #53, I definitely thought it was more popular than that.

Oh no! People aren't allowed to have opinions! Quick, stop them!

I think I probably agree. (Not bothered about the story).

Personally, I disliked the lack of a proper HUB world, but that's just my opinion. On the other hand, except for some new power-ups and Yoshi, the game wasn't that different from the first Galaxy. Most of its succes was made possible by the first game, I think. Galaxy 2 just added a little more, the game itself wasn't that unique or fresh. Nevertheless, it was a great game.

Yeah, I liked Galaxy 2 more, but honestly I thought the best of game of the last generation was Skyward Sword. Nice that their #1 went to a Wii game though.

Nice choice. It's either that or Grand Theft Auto 4 or 5.

While Xenoblade deserved it more, I'd still rather have Galaxy get it over COD or Battlefield (not that Battlefield is bad, it just in no way is GOTG material).

Liked Galaxy but not in a best game ever kind of way, thought Shake it was a much more fun platformer. Out of IGN's own top 10 I'd personally go with skyrim as the best game of the generation; PC version of course.

Great number 1 choice, good list overall. Skyward Sword on #86, though? Below the likes of Marvel Lego and Skylanders? That one stands out.

Yuck. I'm pretty fine with the rest of the top 20, though. Only game I don't care for even a little was The Last of Us, and I'm willing to admit that it's just not my style of game. Otherwise this is a remarkably good list for IGN. But that that #1 though...just...ew...

@Citzenerased - I'm more concerned Skyward Sword made the list at all...besides, once lists get above 20, they're not really worth taking seriously.

Yeah I really did love Super Mario Galaxy so I probably put it as my favorite game last gen but my opinion changes a bit day to day.

The game had a lot of flaws Twilight Princess was better (I know I'm probably in the minority with that opinion).
