The NES had better games than its rivals though.


Just because I know some Ninty fan will try and report that as trolling even though it isn't I'll use metacritic to validate the statement, which anyone is free to check.

Wrong.

The people who played computer games thought that the NES games were trash. However, the people who played the NES indeed had the opinion that the NES had better games.

So how is this any different than today's situation with the Wii and the HD consoles?

 

Metacritic is formed of opinions that play both HD consoles and Wii, so forms a (in theory) more unbiased view as a whole than computer user vs console user opinions clashing 'back in the day'.

Computer magazines had similar reviews of NES games alongside games like Ultima and such back then. The majority of people back then didn't give two shits about their reviews either just like today. Metacritic can tell someone all day that Mass Effect is a better game than Wii Sports but a regular person wont care/agree and at the end of the day it's what that regular person thinks that gets remembered.

Or try to convince people having fun with Mario Kart Wii that GTA IV is a better game.
