Interesting how everyone who predicts different scores for each version predicts the Wii U's score will be lower. It's important to take in mind that the Wii U version will undoubtedly have way less reviews than the Switch, which quite often results in higher average scores.

That's actually a good point.

The reason I place the Wii U version lower is due to it being graphically inferior to the Switch. A minor difference really- nothing much to change the tide.

between 85 to 90, we don't live in same day age as previous zelda games, scores will be dragged down for the sake of standing out and getting the clicks. just like it happened with horizon zero dawn.

"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Just for record, last few Zelda games: WW HD got 90, ALBW 91 and TP HD 86.

I really don't see BotW got anything lower than 90 in worst case.
