I started thinking about what new franchises have been created in this seventh generation of gaming. Here's a list of new games that began on either the PS3/360/Wii and have a sequel either already released or confirmed to be in the works.  I consider this different than just a new IP. It must have a confirmed sequel. Make what you will of this data. Corrections are welcome.


PS3 has 4 new exclusive franchises (Resistance, Heavenly Sword, MotorStorm, Uncharted) and 7 multi-platform new franchises.

360 has 5 new exclusive franchises (Gears of War, Viva Pinata, Prey, Mass Effect, Dead Rising) and 7 multi-platform new franchises.

Wii has 6 new exclusive franchises (Wii Series, Red Steel, Trauma Center, Elebits, Boogie, Game Party) and 2 multi-platform new franchises.
