So the latest KF Gamescast asks whether or not Nintendo get a free pass with review scores based entirely on their IPs and their image.
Definitely an interesting question, and I do agree to an extend (i.e. Skyward Sword received an average score of like 93? Huh?)
Twilight Princess got 95 for the equivalent of what Arkham Knight did with forced Batmobile sections that no one liked...
In hindsight that should NOT even be close to a 95.
