'Tis the season for contemplating the year, and Nintendo is joining in with its own videos to remind us that — above all else — 2014 brought us a lot of fantastic games.
The most recent video from today is a sizzle reel showing off 'fan faves' of 2014, based on over 600,000 pieces of feedback from Club Nintendo in North America. There are some excellent games across Wii U and 3DS.
Posted just recently, also, is Nintendo Minute's latest Game of the Year video. Hosts Kit and Krysta discuss their favourite Wii U games of the year this time around, but particularly fascinating is the semi-final line-up in the Game of the Year voting that readers are influencing via Twitter. There've been some interesting results, with an eShop title punching above its weight in the final four.
We'll be counting votes soon for the staff and reader Game of the Year awards, so don't forget to have your say before the polls close on 23rd December.

I have all the games on that list. It's a great time to be a Nintendo fan.
I don't play pokemon, but own the rest. However I totally disagree that bayonetta 2 isn't on that list.
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is my Nintendo fav this year.
@abbyhitter Not just yet,
@XFsWorld Probably mine as well - I didn't enjoy it as much as Returns though sadly. (For Returns I had a solid month where it couldn't have been better).
wtf, no bayonetta 2?!? that's just weird Otherwise, it was a pretty great year ^-^
Bayonetta 2, while not in that video, did win in some way, as it is featured in the list on the eShop.
@DaemonSword probably getting a copy for Christmas. Played the original (will play again though) but held off on the sequel because.. Well.. My mom seems to have been on a rampage as of late when it comes to games and women in them.. It's a bit silly, since I'm 19 and very morally proper.. However, dad seems to have heard my plea and convinced her otherwise xD because I love me some Kamiya.
