Will Xenoblade be the first/one of the few console JRPGs this gen to hit 90+?

If the first 6 reviews we see average out to just under 90 then history says there is next to no chance that the final number will end up above 90. I'd guess mid 80's is where it levels out to.

The German and Austrian reviewers don't hand out scores above 90 like candy. There are dozens of games that they scored in the 85-89 range that happen to have a 90+ Metascore. You can basically add 5-10 points to their reviews to adjust them to American standards.

HOw many RPG's have EDGE, IGN, GAMESPOT all give a 9 too? The harshest critis have given this a 9. I say the average will go up if it gets more reviews.
