Well shoot, was not expecting Legend Arceus to review that well, that is a higher score than almost all of the Pokemon remakes and 3rd versions, as well as higher than 2 different generation's 1st/2nd versions, Ruby/Sapphire and Sword/Shield. Legends Arceus looked like a bit of a technical mess last I saw it, with very dated graphics and framerate issues, I was expecting that alone to at least cause it to be lower 80's, if not upper 70's, which is why I went with 79. Oh well I guess, you win some and you lose some, definitely off to a bad start on this league.

yeah me neither lol, pretty surprised but glad I went with a semi-safe answer for that one

Also deepest apologies to the couple of new entries here I can't rly count the Arceus predictions as the scores were already in today when you sent them. Will add all ur others tho!

I know not all the scores are in, and it is likely to fluctuate either up or down one to two points at this point...but I'm glad I was pretty on the money with my prediction so far. Can I be number one for 2021 and 2022? Stay tuned!

I knew it was gonna score higher than Pokemon Sword and Shield since , It plays like it were like in the anime and you can ride your Pokemon either flying or on Sea and the battles looked more interesting , you don't have to run around the grass and get a random Pokemon like the older games? you can actually spot a Pokemon you want in the wild which is a plus. Video is 5 months. Sword and Shield randomly popup on the grass when the area looks baren from afar . but in Arceus you can spot a pokemon from a long distance and wild Pokemon will attack the Pokemon trainer. reminisce of Pikachu thundershocks Ash . One of scenes has Lucario training by kicking a tree .

That's a whole lot better than I was expecting. I'm glad I didn't go lower than 80 like I was originally planning to. I stuck with 80 since I thought it would likely just get a couple of points for the fact that its a Pokemon game. Glad to see the game actually turn out to be really good.

Anyone wanna provide a list of all the new shit they announced today lmao? If not Ill update this over the weekend



NobleTeam360 on 09 February 2022

I'll just throw in my prediction for Xenoblade Chronicles 3 while I'm here, going with an 88. Oh and Fire Emblem Warriors Three Hopes, I'll go with a 79. 



Metallox on 09 February 2022

Xenoblade 3 will be the first game to score 101, you heard it here first (will update my predictions soon).

And glad Pokémon Legends turned out good.



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

Adding my predictions for the newly announced games here:
XC3 - 87
FE: Three Hopes - 80
Switch Sports - 79
Mario Strikers: BL - 81
