Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Nintendo Metascore Prediction League 2017: And the Winners Are...

Yeah WTH. Give Zelda time to fall off to 96. Come on. I wanna get that one right.

The scores are already calculated, I just need to upload them here D:

I take whatever the score is after a week, or else I'd be waiting months to finally know the score to input. Plus I have to keep consistent with the game's rules



Snipperclips reached the 80s? Huh. Way better than I expected.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Yeah I was surprised how high that got while some of the other launch games did much, much worse than I expected. I really thought Bomberman would be in the 70s at least.



Time to loose all my points I guess :P

Hey guys, big update here. I double-checked a few times while calculating everything, but please feel free to point out any corrections that need to be made!

Updated 3/13/17

Included in the most recent update:

◦ Updated any edits people have made to their predictions since the last update.

◦ Updated the prediction charts to reflect the final metas and the point distributions for each user.

◦ Updated the leaderboard formatting to include rankings by points!

NOTE: I know that some Metascores have changed since I took down the final ones for the most recent batch of games, but I always take down the "Final Meta" as the score of the game a week after release. Sorry for the inconvenience, but I need a cutoff date to keep consistent with so I'm not constantly looking back and re-calculating the point distribution.



Wow, I actually managed to win points, for once. Too bad I completely missed the mark with SnipperClips.

Been a while since the last update, but since there hasn't been much in the way of major exclusives there hasn't been much reason to

Anyways, seems like the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe embargo will be ending soon, make sure you get your final predictions in before the scores start coming out!

When do you "finalize" the meta scores?

For example Zelda switch is a 97 not a 98.
Where as Zelda Wii U is 96 not a 94.

I assume the first day?

I take whatever the metascore is after a full week since release and register that as the "final meta". It might not stay consistent over a longer period of time, but I need some kind of consistent rule so I could tally the points for the scoreboard. That's why stuff like Zelda might be a little off now.



How did I miss this thread?... Can I still join?
