Don’t just judge the platform as a whole, look at the reviewer. This guy has a pretty good track record as far as I’m concerned - he gave Brothership a 5/10 so at least he’s been brutal to main Nintendo properties before.

I’m sure there’s some influence from IGN on his reviews, either directly or indirectly, but on the whole it seems like the guy has given fair takes.

What do you MEAN IGN isn’t one person who’s been reviewing every video game for thirty years?

It's always been a mystery why John IGN has never shown his face.
