Go easy on him - he's only saying that he thinks that 10s imply perfection and that no game is perfect.

Anyway, I don't think comparing this game's scores to OoT's is at all meaningful. Scores only make sense within a single genre, because they only tell you how well a game does what it's trying to do - they don't speak to how worthy its goal is in the first place.

And it's pretty clear that Smash Bros does deserve a very, very high score. As a party game, it's clearly head and shoulders above everything else out there. People who just want something accessible to play with their friends are going to be thrilled with the game. As a fighting game, it offers more content and is technically more polished than any other member of the genre, and has a tremendously complex and deep engine. As fan service, it's the biggest thing since Melee.

From what I've seen, if any game deserves a 10, this one does. Not since OoT or Mario 64 has a game so clearly been so superior to anything else that tried to offer even a roughly comparable experience, and those two games had the advantage of being the first to take advantage of radically more capable technology.  Its closest competitor is Melee (clearly the favorite fighting game of most people who play fighting games, and also a tremendously popular party game), and it blows Melee away.
