Famitsu Magazine Gives Majora’s Mask 3D a Score of 37/40
Posted on February 10 2015 by Fernando Trejos
Famitsu Magazine, the most popular gaming magazine in Japan, has published their review of Majora’s Mask 3D in their latest issue, and it’s won an incredible score of 9/9/9/10, or 37/40.
The way this works is Famitsu hires four different reviewers for each game, in order to get a much more informed and balanced opinion. So 9/9/9/10 means that three reviewers gave the game a 9 out of 10, and one gave the game a perfect 10 out of 10.
Here are all of Famitsu’s review scores for this week:
The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D (3DS) – 9/9/9/10
God Eater 2 Rage Burst (PS4/PSV) – 9/9/9/9
Dead or Alive 5: Last Round (PS4/XBO/PS4/360) – 8/9/9/8
Terraria (PS4) – 8/8/8/7
Fuuraiki 3 (PSV) – 7/7/8/7
The Keep (3DS) – 7/7/7/7
Tappingo (3DS) – 7/7/7/6
Otoko Yuukaku (PSV) – 7/7/8/6
Excave: Unmei no Mugentou-Hen (3DS) – 7/7/6/6
Famitsu has a great track record with the Zelda series, since The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time was the very first game to ever get a perfect 40/40 from Famitsu, and since then, Wind Waker and Skyward Sword have both gotten a perfect score as well. Only 22 different games have ever gotten a perfect review from Famitsu, and very few have gotten as close as 37/40, so this review for Majora’s Mask 3D is absolutely stellar.
What do you guys think? Do you like Famitsu’s reviews? Should Majora’s Mask 3D have gotten a lower score, or perhaps something even higher?
If you’re interested in looking at the actual reviews in detail, they’re available in this week’s issue of Famitsu.
