Not unexpected to see a Nintendo game being overrated...


Oh come on now that's just being rediculous, sure fans of the franchise running nintendo specific sites might be more inclined to give it good scores, but it's not like it's a bad game, far from it, and it's not like its being showerd with perfect scores either, just CONSISTENTLY HIGH scores, which says a lot more to me than the overall score.


Not saying it is a bad game - I'm sure it is great. It looks great too. But there is just so many Nintendo fansites that are counted on metacritic. It's not a surprise really though, Nintendo was around first and a lot of people grew up with them (the average gamer is 35, afterall).


Some things to note.

You have to do things well in order to generate a large number of fans, and proportionally end up with many fansites.

I don't see you complaining about xbox specific or playstation specific metacritic scores for being potentially biased.

This^^

I mean look at ign, talks 50% Sony, 49% M$, 1% Nintendo! No lie! look at the articles, podcast, etc! Funny thing is all theywere talking about the past month was SM3DW. One sony editor (greg miller i think his name is) from ign was only talking SM3DW lol! He is definitely a Sony+Nintendo fanboy for sure! Best combo this gen!
