Replay Holiday Special

'Tis the season for crappy holiday gaming. Scattered within the thousands of games in Game Informer's vault, we found two that celebrate the holiday season. Now that Wii U is on store shelves, we can officially dive into Wii's library for Replay episodes. Outside of Tim breaking the rules of the spacetime continuum with his rogue Super Smash Bros. Brawl Replay episode, our first sanctioned Wii game is Santa Claus is Comin' to Town! Our Roulette is equally as season-appropriate. Enjoy the episode, folks! And happy holidays!

Be sure to visit the Replay hub to watch previous episode.

Email the author Andrew Reiner, or follow on Twitter, Facebook, and Game Informer.

Great episode as always guys! Nothing says Christmas quite like crappy licensed games :)

So now that the Wii U is out, wii games are officially candidates for Replay? It's weird to think a game that was released last year counts, but it is technically last-gen. Also, yay Replay Holiday Surprise! "That animation wasn't that bad. It moved!" XD

I had The Grinch for the ps1 when I was a kid. Never got far, cause I was an idiot with games back then.

I was a huge fan of that Grinch game when I was a kid. I didn't realize how goofy the animations were until now.

Space Ghost narrating and oral sex jokes, damn GI knows how to celebrate Christmas in style haha

Oh, so the rule is, whenever a new console comes out, all the older ones are officially "retro" enough for Replay? Good to have that locked-down and made official here, finally! Although, I could've sworn you did this already... for "Reiner and Phil", maybe?
by Ripit290 Tuesday, December 25, 2012 at 02:03 AM

Merry Christmas GI lol

The evil dictator in the Metal Slug series is pretty much just Hitler with a different name. He'd make a great candidate for the top 10 list. That makes, what...3? Also, we need more Ben Hanson on Replays.

Another controversial Dan episode hahaha. "I practiced my adolescence for this."
by Ed-e Tuesday, December 25, 2012 at 05:03 AM

A2M, they made the game WET. not bad just o.k. Also Naughty Bear. Haven't played heard it was just o.k. Been wanting to try it out.

Merry Christmas everyone!

This is EXACTLY why Replay is my favorite show! Man, you guys know how to deliver
by Tim Gruver Tuesday, December 25, 2012 at 02:46 PM

Those games were great. Glad that Wii games now officially count for Replay now. Best holiday gift ever!
