The recent Switch 2 release Donkey Kong Bananza has taken out “best gameplay” of the show, placing it ahead of other titles like Resident Evil Requiem and Mario Kart World.

Although Mario Kart World missed out on the gameplay award, it did win “best Nintendo Switch 2 game” of the event, beating not only Donkey Kong Bananza but also titles like Metroid Prime 4: Beyond.
