I had no idea it was on. Seems quite early for an award show but there are some late 2016 games on there too so it must just have a weird time frame.

It's a pretty weird stream as the the stream hosts have been picture in picture for a while but are muted?

How is Boss Key nominated for studio of the year. Is releasing a multiplayer only game that was dead on arrival worthy of such an honor? Also, Nintendo EPD has to be a lock for that category, right? Releasing Breath of the Wild and Mario Odyssey in the same year is an unprecedented achievement.

It seems kind of weird to even bother with a stage show given how quickly they are going through the awards. Everything feels rushed like they've want it to be over as soon as the awards started.

@paulmako: I know. The show has barely anytime to catch its breath.
