Frankly I think that perceived bias is all in your head. All fan bases have crazy morons who go nuts if a review is less than what they think it should be. It isn't just a Nintendo thing. At the end of the day people always view one set of fans as being the "worst" and I think that is folly. Fanboys are everywhere and they are all annoying as crap. If the TLoU 2 gets a low review, there is absolutely no doubt in my mind there will be people pitching a fit. And it isn't limited to videogames either. Go over to Meta and notice all the 0/10 scores for Last Jedi... yeah, fair enough people don't like it and are entitled to their opinion, but a 0/10 is just absurd.
People are morons is the shorter version. At the end of the day I don't think reviewers go out of their way to rate Nintendo games easier than the competition. That is just a lame excuse people use because they don't like the fact that Nintendo typically has some of the highest rated exclusive games every generation. Instead of accepting Nintendo is a great developer, it has to be bias. It reminds me of sports when team "A" only wins because you know, it is a conspiracy and the NCAA as an organization is purposely making them win via refs.

Except no "crazies" in a fanbase goes freaking nuts over a 7, and a 0.1 drop on Metacritic, like the Nintendo ones do. Nor do they have the fanbase as a whole making excuse for them if they do. Sure, I could see people getting pissed at a clickbait 4 for a big title, but at a 7 is just moronic. There is no doubt that stops certain reviewers from giving them lower scores. They don't want the headache of dealing with that.

People went nuts when Ratchet and Clank Tools of destruction only had 89 on Metacritic tho =p
