Best Nintendo Wii Exclusive 2011

By Josh Laddin

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

Platform: Nintendo Wii

Publisher: Nintendo

Developer: Nintendo

What can be said about Skyward Sword that hasn’t already been said about Ocarina of Time? How about…it’s better than Ocarina of Time. I know there’s plenty of fanboys out there that would gut me with a Biggoron sword for saying that, but if you take off those nostalgia goggles, it’s plain as day: Skyward Sword has the cleverest dungeons, the most refined combat, the deepest story, and the most epic scale of any Zelda to date. If that’s not enough to make it Wii Game of the Year, I don’t know what is.

Wait a minute… did anything else even come out on Wii this year?
