GIs scores have little to do with theyre obvious hated of the Wii. But they still have somthing to do with it. Most of the time they review multiplatdform games, there is not even a mention of the Wii version. Not even the fact that its avalible on the Wii. The most recent is probably Madden 09. There is no mention of the Wii version, nor is there a separate Wii review.
Ive said this before, but the treated NMH as all of the Wiis hardcore games.
What i mean by that is the lack of overall coverage of the game (and any wii game, hardore or casual). They had about 1 preview for NMH, and that was about half a page in length. Then they give it its worst review, calling it a GTA rip off and saying that its combat was repetitive and unsatisfying (They were the only once to say something like that, as NMH was praised for its combat controls). Then they go and QUOTE Suda saying that his game sold like crap and the Wii isnt for core gamers. They twist his quote and do not provide his clarification of it in any of the next issues.
More 'proof' would be there Wii sales article (one of the only Wii articles).
There primary point was that Wii games do not sale as well as they could, and the even bring Metacritic into it, saying that the Wii has the crappiest line from all 3 current consoles.One of theyre biggest points was that Brawl didnt even sell to half of all Wii owners. This was before the EU release and after only several weeks on NA shelves.
What they say (or dont say) about the Wii is in hopes of turning theyre readers into Wii haters, but they do it in a fashion that is hard to recognize.
