why is it embarassing? you can't act like the User Score is irrelevant. if User Scores had no relevance then they would all be roughly the same; but the reality is some games have fantastic user averages and some have mediocre or bad. there are tons of Nintendo haters out there, so explain to me how it makes any sense that their games remain highly rated if the user-Meta has no relevance? surely there are as many Nintendo haters as any other brand out there
