Including Smash Bros in a list of fighting games, is like including GTA in Racing games.
You know the score of the way better Zelda game is above that, right?
Best Zelda game til date, according to me and journalists is Ocarina of Time.
BotW and TotK are two that I don't like even close to the older games, but time has past, and so did the series.
Seriously? How can this be consider news, and why approve this nonsense?
Playstation gamers, go play your amazing library of games already available to you.
Xbox gamers, go download new games on GamePass to improve some non interesting stats.
Nintnedo fans, play TotK.
PC Gamers, go mod old shit....
No, removing their handheld console made them reach 100+

All main Zelda games scored over 90.
The 96 is because it has Zelda in the title and made by Nintendo.
I played 20 hours yesterday, and this is no way near 96 for ME. Journalists are to scared to judge games for what they are.
If another AAA game was missing voice acting, had long loading screens, up to 30 fps, non compelling story, annoying controls during puzzles, a unnecessary complicated way to go through your weapons and what to combine etc, that game would've been slaughtered.

GameCube was higher specced than PS2.
Wii-U was just a missed opportunity but actually tried to match PS3 and X360.
Wii and Switch are actually the only Nintendo consoles where they haven't tried to be as good or on par with other consoles on the market, measured by specification.
Hogwarts Legacy is soon up there as well.
Always great to see new IP's succeed.
Don't you worry.
I'm not a Sony fanboy, and I was glad games like Destruction All Stars reviewed badly.
I am pretty keen to point out the few times Playstation Studios deliver games that in my opinion doesn't live up to the standard.
That damn battle system, wow 🥰
I want to be so hyped for this game, and sure I am!
If this game wasn't made by Nintendo or have the Zelda in the Title, it wouldn't be 96 on Metacritic, same with BotW.
I'm sure this game is great, but to me, BotW is one of the worst Zelda games out there, and the only reason I played it through was because of the Zelda in the title.
I am fully aware you're not supposed to talk badly about Zelda or Nintendo, but reading the review, I don't see any reason why not to believe that would be a score ...
You haven't been around for long it seems.
The only consoles Nintendo haven't tried to keep uo with hardware is Switch and Wii.

I wouldn't count out Final Fantasy XVI either, but Zelda is always Zelda, and will probably win it in the end.
Have to download it as well. Is it compatible with wheel?
Final Fantasy VII Remake did great, so did God of War Ragnarök, Last of Us Part 1, Forbidden West, GT7 etc... I don't think you have to worry.

I get more money back from selling my Series X than the S.
And my son doesn't care about the extra pixels so he's fine.
Well, you will always see a lot of reviews of new games that's been hyped (of when fans want to trash talk). Nothing new.
Tons of reviews for games like Elden Ring, Horizon Forbidden West, GoW Ragnarök, Forspoken, Hi-Fi Rush etc...
Forspoken at least had great gameplay.
I played Redfall for 3-4 hours yesterday with my son, and tried to go in with low expectations, but I felt almost embarrassed by playing it.
I really wanted this to be fun, but I can't be arsed to even get through the short campaign.
All my hopes for Starfield now, otherwise the Series X will be sold and I'll use my sons Series S whenever something interesting is showing up on GamePass.

I don't disagree with your comment, but could be good for you to know that EU ain't a country.
EU consists of 27 countries while Europe is 44.
"and here's how it competes against other fighters"
No, Mortal Kombat doesn't compete with games like Smash Bros? It's a different genre for a different audience.
