But they also have three of the worst games of all time. Final Fantasy XIII, XIII-2, and Lightning Returns.

Both series of games are relatively self-contained (though Zelda now has something of an official timeline connecting the games). I hate MMOs, but the existence of 11 and 14 have zero influence on my continued enjoyment of the other installments. Other bad apples (2, 9 and the 13 trilogy of shame) similarly do not have a detrimental effect, other than not contributing to my attachment to the franchise.

But you have to factor in the good with the bad when considering the franchise, not just the ones we enjoy.
