| Mnementh said: Seems pretty good review overall. I would note, that his NA-sales-numbers include the Vita-launch, so that numbers show the Vita a bit better than it really is (but I think not much). He noted that his Meta-Rankings should look different for Japan. I would add, that the reviews of game-magazines are also biased in direction of core-games, many people also like casual games and they often have a high quality, but they are ranked down because of simple graphics or simple gameplay. That aside I have to agree with the guy. |
Or alternatively, aren't reviewed at all -- hence, they don't show up in his "10 reviews or more" list. This is also a problem for digital releases.
Not arguing with his use of that number, it's legit enough. But it's a shame that a game like Cave Story 3DS doesn't show up in there simply because only Destructoid and a few Nintendo specialty sites actually reviewed the game. Then there's Night Sky, Art Academy, Art of Balance, Fluidity... just not enough reviews.
I suppose Vita probably had just as many great games fly under the radar, but it's a shame to hear him say that only 7 great games were released for 3DS the whole year knowing that doesn't accurately represent 2012 for the 3DS.
Yeah, I gotta get out of this. Now I'm scrolling through eShop reviews and I want to strangle somebody.
Glad to know GameRankings only counts quality reviews.
