actually yes, forget the scores for casual Wii games, score system does not work for some Wii games

reviewers for example gave 5.0 to Mario Party 8 but it's great and sold about 7m copies...

Yeah, IMO, people put too much weight and faith in outright number scores. Number scores have a purpose and a use, but the more important part of a review is the write up. I've had much more fun with Mario Party 5 (my favorite MP) than GTA4. Not that I'd argue MP5 is better than GTA4, but I certainly have had more fun with that 70% game than the 97% one.

 

A lot of the casual games are really hit and miss on a personal level. I love the Mario Party series, but rented Mario & Sonic once, and hated it. The only thing I really remember is almost having an anyeruism attempting to do the 100M dash.
