As a gamer who grew up with the magical world of Nintendo and its iconic characters like Super Mario, I can’t help but feel a pang of nostalgia when I hear about Astro Bot’s heartfelt tribute to Nintendo at The Game Awards. Having been introduced to the captivating realm of platforming games by Nintendo in 1989, it was truly awe-inspiring to witness Astro Bot not only honoring its roots but also standing tall among the best titles of today.

At The Game Awards, Sony’s prediction of a barren year for PS5 in 2024 was proven wrong when Astro Bot won the Game of the Year award, and three other accolades. Additionally, Helldivers 2 snatched two awards, making it a successful evening for PlayStation games.

In his heartfelt speech upon winning Game of the Year, esteemed director Nicolas Doucet – a long-time PlayStation professional who once worked at London Studio – acknowledged key figures like Hermen Hulst and Scott Rohde, both of whom played crucial roles in the creation of Astro Bot.

Moreover, he expressed gratitude towards Nintendo, acknowledging their pioneering role in shaping the gaming industry by creating iconic franchises such as Super Mario. Additionally, he admitted that it was through these franchises that he was introduced to the world of platforming games back in 1989.

As a thrilled admirer, I’m ecstatic to share that my beloved Astro Bot swept three major awards – Best Game Direction, Best Action/Adventure Game, and Best Family Game, making it the star title of the evening! For the complete list of victors, follow this link.
