Mario was is a much better franchise. You're also asking an American audience. The only people who actually still watch Pokemon and play Pokemon are little kids. Theres no appeal to an older audience. Where I believe Mario can go to all audiences with its easy to learn and play games. Everyone can play, and as you go both adults and young people are challenged by what the game has to offer. I dont think there really is a need to ask which franchise is better. Mario will always kill Pokemon, in my books, any day.

Search Wi-Fi Battle on Youtube.  I doubt all of those were posted by "little kids."

Lol,  no thats true. How I was thinking about it, was more that theres a larger audience of young kids who enjoy Pokemon more. Really, I should have said only. I was thinking also in terms of markets. In America, Pokemon isnt as popular as it is in Japan. It's amazing how many people still play pokemon now over there.

Pokemon Diamond and Pearl actually sold more in North America than Japan.
