If 3D Dot Game Heroes was an actual Zelda game...

I think it could have been rated higher, I think if it was a similar game but put on the DS with the zelda name on it for sure it would have gotten the higher ratings, partially because of the weird standards for DS games and if it was still 3D Dot on the DS it seems like people would have ignored it.

But you could also say if it wasn't exclusive would it have gotten higher ratings or perhaps lower?

Really it's a lot of what if's, a lot of reviewers with questionable judgment, and none of it can really be proven ever.

I personally believe in the whole DS situation just based on Phantom Hourglass scores but you are probably right, none of this can be ctually proven, but the reasoning for the lower scores makes me think otherwise.

When someone says a game is fun, has plenty of charm, has plenty of stuff to keep you busy but hits it real hard just because it is similar to Zelda makes think it would be higher if it was Zelda just because that con would become a pro, and that is in fact it's biggest "con".

Funny though because for an old school Zelda fan that "con" would be a HUGE "pro".

Yeah I brought up DS because for some reason reviews don't seem to mind that Zelda on the DS is top down but they get upset at the controls, and if you have 3DDGH controls on the DS with the game game new name it wouldn't get it's ass handed to it like NSMB Wii did by some reviewers.  Cause for some reason having a DS which is more powerful than the N64 not have traditional 3D games is alright, while on home consoles anything classic seems like it's an automatic point off unless its a download title and even then it better not look like an NES game like Megaman lol
