Forums - Nintendo - So reviewers are docking Smash 10 points or more for no reason?

Gona rate this thread... 1/10. And name it too - "Nintendilusional"

Seems reasonable to me



Who cares about reviews anymore after all that crap. And I mean sometimes connection issues is bad but appearantly action GAMES(i repeat GAMES not movies) that constantly drop to 20 or so fps becuse they focus more on visuals than on gameplay can get 90% etc.

Another example is e.g gametrailers giving Skyward sword less points because its always the same (SS is very different from traditional zelda games both in design, presentation and controls.) but COD or FIFA never are "the same" according to Gametrailers. (this was the reason I left that site and never looked back well and the totally idiotic community downvoting everything even when its 100% true.)

Look at Bayonetta 1 or skyrim on PS§ and then try to explain to me how they have almost the same rating as their 360 counterparts.

Also about the multiplayer 360 games never lost points due to the fee which is obviously a disadvantage/flaw compared to the fee free ps3. etc.

Then there is also the laziness factor of reviewers where they review 1 version and give the same score to Wii PS3 and 360 versions without testing individually. Pretty unprofessional

Amazing game that is hard to put down, filled with content.

Oh, but the customization is lacking a little and sometimes the 3DS has online connection issues..... Bullshit review! 

Anyone finding any good reasons for this game to not get a 10 or close to it?

Omg dude not every game is a 10.  It is getting great scores.



I've watched hours of the game on Twitch with people playing the Japanese version. I hardly saw network issues. It looks fantastic and is definitely a 9+ game. The Wii U version is going to be a smash hit. (harharhar...)

Should be 9.0 AT LEAST!!!

Reviewers I rarely even look at review scores... first gameplay, then MULTIPLE reviews. Then I decide If I want the game.

~Smash 3DS Reordered since 30th August. )



Chances are they are playing the game on a normal 3DS. That console alone has problems with the game.



Game is not perfect, has msome minor issues and flaws. Hence a 9/10. That's fair and a crazy good score. Better than most other current gen games, too.

Yep, Nintendo are by far the most critically aclaimed publisher in the world. The assumption that there is some mass anti-Nintendo conspiracy among reviewers is pretty ridiculous. Or at the very least, if there is one they're doing a very poor job of it :p

Not to mention that some Nintendo IP seem exempt from the "does nothing revoluntionary" points deduction that's become trendy recently.



9/10 seems a bit high for a sequel.
