Anyway Nintendos rate of massive franchise generation is simply higher. Probably this is due to the one man Miyamoto who had a significant hand in many of these games. Its not that Sony sucks, its just that one person is probably worth as much as all their studios combined. Luckily for Sony Miyamoto will retire eventually. |
Gears is third party, that shouldn't be there silly! I also feel like Zelda is on the low side for mega hits, it's big but it's difficulty or something might be holding it back. And Duck Hunt isn't really a franchise.
But yes, most of their high rate is Miyamoto's doing. I think Sony will be happy when he retires, as you say.
