It looks like "Guitar Hero" won Outstanding Innovation, not "Nintendogs"

Hello,

Based on my research, the AIAS website may have committed another error in record-keeping. Based on relevant articles relating to the 9th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards, it seems that Guitar Hero won "Outstanding Innovation in Gaming", not Nintendogs. Therefore, GH should have 5 awards won, while NDogs only had 2. Look at these various website links, including from a Nintendo-friendly publication, stating the claim that negate the AIAS' own website. Again, someone at AIAS needs to clean up and clarify their records on their official website. For the original author of the Wiki page, please let me know if you think this is relevant enough to change the information.

Thanks, Tommy for bringing this to my attention. I updated the winner for the Outstanding Innovation in Gaming, winners tally, and added all the news articles you listed as sources to support the record. MR.RockGamer17 (talk) 18:21, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
