Labo

The BAFTA Games Awards 2019 will be taking place next month, celebrating some of the best titles to grace our screens over the past few months. There are several Nintendo games up for awards this year, so let's take look through the full list.

Nintendo's recent major players are correct and present as you'd expect, with Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, Super Mario Party, and Nintendo Labo all securing nominations in the Family category (Labo's actually found its way into multiple categories) and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate making it into the Multiplayer group. Mobile sensation Pokémon GO gets a nomination, too.

It's not just the big names taking home nominations, though; GRIS, Celeste, Overcooked 2, Yoku's Island Express, and more delightful indies are hidden away in there, too. Here's the full list:
