Both are stellar developers known for really pushing hardware and making great games.

Metroid Prime 3 and DKCR didn't push the hardware, and metascores of 87 and 90 are not stellar.

Let's face it, they're known for ONE game - Metroid Prime - which was both stellar and pushed the hardware. Most key staff had left after Prime or Prime 2. They're living on a memory.

Naughty Dog

Uncharted - 89.67

Uncharted 2 - 96.38

uncharted 3 - 91.78

Retro Studios

Metroid Prime - 96.35

Metroid Prime 2: Echoes - 92.05

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption - 90

Donkey Kong Country Returns - 87.87

Scores look rather even accross the board buddy!

Only thing is that Retro hasn't released anything in a while, whereas Nuaghty dog have the last of us coming out very soon. 

I have no problem with this argument in and of itself, but please for the love of God, Naughty Dog is not just Uncharted. They've been part of Sony since the PS1 era and their pedigree for both highly rated and commercially successful game goes a lot deeper than just Uncharted and The Last of US.
