We can't answer all of those questions categorically until we post our own review, but we can give you the world's first review score for the game, which has been posted in esteemed Japanese magazine Famitsu.
The famous publication – which has a panel of four reviewers who each score the game out of 10 and then add up the scores for the total out of 40 – has awarded New Horizons 38 out of a possible 40. Two reviewers gave it a 9, while the other two gave it a 10.
That's still an incredible score but it means New Horizons misses out on that coveted 'perfect score', which Famitsu has granted to just 26 games in its entire history. These include The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, New Super Mario Bros. Wii and Kid Icarus: Uprising.
Fucking lulz.
And fucking Double lulz Skyward Sword.
And infinite lulz for New Super Mario Bros Wii.
