I'll only say this once:

10/10 DOES NOT MEAN THE GAME IS 'PERFECT'. IT MEANS IT IS AN EXCELLENT, EXTRAORDINARY GAME.

 

Geez.

But I'll repeat what many people have said in this thread.  When you max out a score for a game, be it 10/10, 10.0 or 40/40, you're saying its the best out of its genre for this gen.  And if any game that comes out after it is better, there's no score left to give it above a 10.  What else are you going to classify it than perfect?  'Near' perfect?  'The best game of the gen..along with the other 10s?'  It just points out even more that the scoring systems and reviews are flawed.

This is why a lot of people called BS with the score for GTAIV.  And why people keep questioning all these 40/40 scores from Famitsu, which are happening quite often now.

I don't want to be rude, but are you serious? If I did my homework and the teacher give me a 10, can't people make a bigger and better homework and receive 10? My homework was already excellent for what the teacher asked, so I deserve a 10 but people can have a better homework than mine. 10 for me and for the rest of people won't change the fact that my homework isn't the bigger/better but it did the job, it was exactly what the teacher asked me to do and I did nothing wrong.

40/40 shows that NSMB Wii did right what it was supposed to do, it did nothing wrong as a platformer, and that's it.

If you really disagrees, tell me what is missing in NSMB Wii as a platformer (multiplayer online isn't essential for a platformer game)
