I find it so odd that Nintendo World Report gave it the lowest rating out of all the scores.

Otherwise looking excellent. Hopefully it'll stay above 87 when all is said and done.

Yeah, that is surprsing. I would've thought Gamespot would be the lowest since these days they essentially knock at least a full point off a game just for being Nintendo made. Other than those 2 scores though, pretty much all raves so far.

GameSpot's review was surprisingly decent with complaints I found somewhat valid (bad roster, bad battle mode, no clock in Grand Prix). The score maybe should've been an 85ish because the complaints, though valid, don't take away from the core of the gameplay.
