You'd have to include Nintendo EAD in there.

Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario Galaxy 2, LoZ: Skyward Sword, LoZ: Twilight Princess, Wii Sports, Mario Kart Wii, Wii Fit, New Super Mario Bros Wii, New Super Mario Bros, etc.

They've certainly been one of the most influential and succesful studios.

Naughty Dog and From Software got my votes.

yea i would say Nintendo EAD should be there for games like Skyward Sword and Mario Galaxy Alone plus the other games

I really think Turn 10 should be on that list. I'm not saying they're the best, but should definitely get a mention. Forza 2,3, and 4 all are amazing games and have all score 90+ on meta. Very underrated developer.

This would be my top 3 going in order:

1. Valve
2. Bungie
3.Rockstar

Next week is my turn to make this thread.

1. Sony Santa Monica

2. Valve

3. Naughty Dog

4. CD Project ( the guys who made witcher 2 )

5. Guerrilla Games

1. Valve
2. Rockstar
3. Gameloft
4. Insomniac

No, Gameloft is not a typo.

1. Nintendo EAD Tokyo 2
2. Retro Studios
3. Nintendo EAD Group 1
4. HAL Labs.
5. Nintendo EAD Group 3 (Or Square Enix)

I can't pick best, so I'll list some of the ones i can think of at the moment

- Sega

- Sony Japan

- Nintendo

- Atlus

- Bethesda (but the COPYRIGHT EVERYTHING thing is pissing me off)

- Valve

- CD Projekt RED

 but to be honest its probably everyone except the listed

- Not Naughty Dog (Linear as hell games, barely have any replayability, and too much focus on graphics)

- Not Epic Games (same as above, Generic as hell games, but atleast has replayability)

- Not Ubisoft (all of it)

- Not Capcom (all of it)

- Not Idea Factory/ Compile Heart (their games are a big joke, and they know it, always going for the weeboo humor and hentai anime girls)

- Not HotHead Games (same as above but the american way)

- Not Bioware (their games suck ass after the first one in the series... ALWAYS, and they always the pointless sex scenes to appeal to kids so much that the characters feel shallow and stupid, so much that they always end up as a joke.)

- Not Mojang (I have no idea why everyone so obssessed with this indie company and notch, minecraft feels like a glorified level creator, and there is no point of playing it more than a couple of minutes, atleast Terraria had an actual good battle system and "Adventure" as in it pays if you try exploring)

- Not Microsoft (I don't want your freaking Media Apps, and I really don't want any more kinect games and Adverts about how great your freaking Windows Phone and Kinect are, I get it , stop shoving stuff on my face, Its not enough that I pay a yearly Xbox Live Gold account fee that you shove pointless adverts ofJersey Shore, Justin Beiber and some other american mainstream shit, I bought the console for games, not to waste money on freaking adverts, and some other PR Bullshit)

this is not a rant by the way.

I have a feeling that you mentioned that you love nintendo, but can't put my finger on it.
