I know there’s occasionally some backlash to reviews that go against a broader positive reception to some media, but do that many people still follow reviews to decide what to check out?

    For example, Nintendo fans in general will give massive backlash to reviews that are not 10/10 for Nintendo games, even if the lower score is legitimate.

    This sounds like an anecdote, if anything. Nintendo fans are usually mad at Nintendo for missing the mark with certain games, not with the reviewers.
