The 2024 Bossies, the second annual presentation of the awards, has its nominees for Nintendo Game of the Year.
The Bossies is an award show the Boss Rush Network hosts that is a celebration of video games and entertainment. The event is not beholden to announcements and trailers, rather votes come directly from the community.
The award show aims to feature games and entertainment that deserves recognition as the Boss Rush team highlights the best of the year, including content the industry may have overlooked.
Furthermore, the Boss Rush team has partnered many from around the industry who are big fans of gaming and entertainment. These include Indie developers, game publishers, and content creators.
The 2024 Bossies nominations for Nintendo Game of the Year are:
Mario & Luigi: Brothership by Acquire: Mario and Luigi team up in the world of Concordia as they fight the evil Glohm, who seeks to isolate the inhabitants. This is the first mainline addition to the Mario & Luigi series in nine year.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong Remake by Nintendo: Donkey Kong has taken the Mini-Mario toys, leaving Mario to get them all back. This is a remake of a 2004 Game Boy Advance title of the same name. It is the first game, remake of otherwise, under the Mario vs. Donkey Kong umbrella since 2015.
Nintendo World Championship: NES Edition by Nintendo: Based on the eSports competition of the same name, this game featured several different modes that allows players to speedrun through various NES games. The game is both single-player and multiplayer.
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door by Intelligent Systems: Mario travels to Rogueport in search of a fabled treasure but gets caught up in the X-Nauts’ scheme and has to save Princess Peach. This is a remake of the 2004 game of the same title, which was the second in the series.
