There's some massive bias in this list. With the non Nintendo games they're adding all genres together under one series, while they're clearly splitting genres off on the Nintendo side.

How fair is it that they add every Mega Man game including exe titles, the fighting games, racing games, ports, remakes, compilations, etc, and then with Pokemon they only count the Pokemon generations.  They don't count the spinoff games like Pokemon Dash, Snap, the Mysterious Dungeon games, Pokemon Conquest, etc, etc, etc.  This is true for pretty much everything on the Nintendo side of the list.

Also, when people say Mario, they don't mean Mario specifically, but that world. Mario Bros, Super Mario Bros 1-3, Super Mario Bros 2 USA, Super Mario World 1-2, Yoshi's Story, Yoshi's New Island, New Super Mario Bros 1, 2, Wii, Wii U, Luigi U, Warioland 1-4, Super Mario Land 1-2, and Super Princess Peach. I'm probably missing some but right here are 21 "Mario" platformers and this is before you even get into the 3D stuff.


You might be right in terms of how they lump together diffrent megaman games, and others like sonic, and it would be nice if they were consistant, but there are many other games in the image that don't (to my knollage) deserve to be split up like assassins creed.

Even if you include all the spin offs and remakes/remasters for the Zelda and Metroid franchises, you only get only a small number considering the years they've been around. Yet you do hear the Zelda rehash rehash rehash crap. A non-biased image, where they split up the Megaman games and sonc games would still illustrate this.

As for lumping Maro platformers with Wario and yoshi, to me that seems a bit like taking all the batman games ever made, from the nes game to the ackham games, and puting them in the same franchiese.
