Forums - Gaming Discussion - Nintendo Really Likes Metacritic

Tagged games:

Guys and girls please read the article carefully and calm your hearth, there is nothing wrong with liking Meta Critique (even Meta Critique is not the only reference to judge games quality). The article point out why it's wrong to brag to investor, it's fine if you brag on advertisement, but not in front of Investor.

You know what??? I actually think they should gloat ( even to investors )even more about their metacritic scores. If they make good games then they should be able to gloat all they want. I also think that metacritic is a pretty good site for review scores though only when one sees the actalual meta score and not the user score.

Don't think Yoshi's Woolly World or P&D:MBE are going to get 85+ critic and user score. 

Aside from that, Nintendo has some great games coming, but they won't want to compare this kind of stuff against PS and Xbox for much longer. There are a lot of games on those two systems that could be very successful this year, and I don't think the same comparison at the same time next year will be as flattering to Nintendo.  They should be proud of their games, but pointing out the situation on other systems is only going to make it more apparent when they don't in future.

I strongly believe that Yoshi has good chances to reach the 85. And what are all of those great titles on the other systems that would make Nintendo look bad?

Witcher 3, Uncharted 4, Tomb Raider, MG5, Halo, Bloodborne... any other? and that´s from 2 consoles

Just in WiiU, in only one console, we have Xenoblade and Zelda (probably the best scored games this year), Splatoon, Starfox , Mario Maker and Yoshi.  And of course games like MK8, Bayonetta 2, Smash Bros, Mario 3dworld or Pikmin 3 are still there, so  i´m sorry but in 2015 Nintendo is still winning. this.

It's like you wearing safari cloths to a weeding party. It's not how the real worlds work. I am a gamer fortunately and i care for critique. but unfortunately investor is investing because they want to get money not because they are gamer Lol. And Meta Critique is not represent all the game quality it self because  most of critique is doesn't  represent all gamer want and need and also, do you believe honestly believe all Journalist can be trusted?

I don't see the issue with a CEO highlighting that their product has been highly reviewed, even if it is to investors. It only shows what they are trying to do to attract sales (release high quality software).

and then luckly there is no one interupt and saying: " Iwata you should stop with making game with high with Meta score, and just make game with higher sales rate, because meta score doesn't help us making money. "



I thought that Nintendo was a... more humble company, I guess I was completely wrong. This is the kind of stuff that really gets on my nerves, I might have to rethink my spending habits. I am not sure if I want to give money to a company that cares more about Metacritic than me.

Should they show them the meta for The Order instead to prove that they're better?
