Let me throw a spanner in the works...
The "Wii series" should not be considered as a franchise. The games are just Nintendo's generic titles for the Wii platform. People will no doubt argue the point, but only because they want to see inflated numbers. Unrelated games with Sega in the title were never considered as part of a franchise, so why should they be for Wii? That is just disingenuous.
What if Sony slapped "Playstation" on all their first party titles? Playstation GT5? Playstation Wipeout? Playstation Uncharted? Would that count?
