I'll give it a B-

Positive points:

  • Animal Crossing was HUGE!
  • Paper Mario is getting better again
  • Clubhouse Games came at the nick of time
  • Age of Calamity was a great surprise and fitting for the backstory of BotW
  • Nice remasters throughout the year with Xenoblade Chronicles and Pikmin 3
  • Making a real-life Mario Kart, really crazy enough to work!

Negative points

  • Mario 3D Allstars was a massive missed opportunity (and wtf about making it time-limited Nintendo???)
  • While Animal Crossing was HUGE, it was also the only real big release of the year
  • Nothing new for the holidays
  • Overall rather bland
