Do I need an jp amazon account?
What does 500....yen??? Equate to?
Brawl sucks.
But the claims that their reviews are downright bought always seems like bogus. Do you really think Sega spent a ton of cash for the Bayonetta-review and 428 while Square Enix can't afford to do it on most of their mainline FF and other flagship titles?

Demon's Souls (29/40)
Dark Souls (37/40)
Dark Souls 2 (37/40)
Dark Souls 3 (38/40)
Wow, From Software really stepped up their game after the terrible Demon's Souls! I can't imagine the much raised profile for the series and having Bandai Namco as a publisher had anything to do with it!
Means nothing. Very eye-rolling.
It's pretty crazy that we all know Famitsu is crap, yet it seems to get its own thread more often than it deserves.
That said, 40/40 is certainly not a bad sign! But it probably doesn't mean anything either.
Good to know it's as good as Nintendogs.
Why are people discrediting the publication instead of viewing it as another high praise to a game that looks excellent? If you look hard enough every fucking review publication has graded something questionably in the past.
Really starting to lose my hype on this game.
Do people not recognize Nintendogs as a great game? I fucking love Nintendogs. Why does this always come up? It's an excellent game and deserved good scores.

Your posts are so cringe worthyIt's just getting a pass because it's Zelda.
Between Zelda, Nier and Nioh can we agree that Western devs are finally getting outed as the piece of shit they always were?
Famitsu is consistently wrong.

Famitsu gave FFXIII-2 40/40
It would be nice if it meant something. They gave FFXIII-2 a 40/40 for god's sake. Publishers get the score they pay for.
This is the magazine that gave Peacewalker perfect scores while the game had Famitsu magazines present in-game and the magazine owner was doing official ads for said game, and this is all without disclosing.Why are people discrediting the publication instead of viewing it as another high praise to a game that looks excellent?

And they were pretty bang on the money imho

IMO so are like 70% of the publications that count for metascore. As every review, they liking it this much doesn't mean the game is inevitably a masterpiece, but it's another good indication that maybe it is.

Not to really defend Famitsu's awfulness (because clearly the change in popularity made a difference), but is that really any different from how reviewers and gamers both just kinda slept on From's prior RPGs of that style until they blew up?Demon's Souls (29/40)

Famitsu does it to itself.
Famitsu does okay when reviewing low budget games.
AAA games with marketing money though
Ay lmao.
Quit being a fanboy. They aren't being discredited because of the score, they are being discredited because they have a shady history of being paid off for reviews.
Nice cover!
But don't forget that Famitsu reviews are actually four tweets put together.
Personally I would save my takeaways for reviews I can read and an outlet that doesn't have a history of shadiness.I'm not saying we should blindly trust Famitsu. I'm saying that perhaps the biggest thing to take here is that's yet another indication of this game being on its way to be really really critically acclaimed.
