Didn't even hit the 20 I mentioned off the top of my head...and you can't change the goal post. They each are different series, each different with a different set of fans just like the games you've listed. Doesn't matter how many have the same cast, they're different series. I could also list a ton more...as Nintendo has been around the block longer than Sony but I get your point. But it's not like these games don't have rehashes either... but if you need more assurance...

Wario Ware, Chibi Robo, Wario Land Punch Out, Fire Emblem, Pilot Wings, Wii Series, Golden Sun, Wave Race, Earthbound, Mario vs. Donkey Kong, Mo Series, Starfy, Mario Golf, Tennis, Sports in general, Luigi's Mansion, Picross, Rhythm Heaven, Star Fox, Tomodachi, Wars Series, Brain Age, 1080 and that's all from my head. Tons of offshoots, 1 offs, etc as well. Just as wisdom comes with age, most game libraries increase with age. It really isn't a contest worth trying to win at this point. But again, I digress, this is a Sony forum, I've said my 2 cents on what I think about the PS5 and how the hardware will be predictable, software really shouldn't have come into the fray, I will stop before I get banned.

Of the 20 off of the top of your head, 6 of them are Mario games. And then you went on to add a few more with Mario spin-off characters but ok, let's see (all off the top of my head too):

Went out of my way to only include IPs from this gen and th previous one so stuff like Parapa, Tomba, Ape Escape, Legend of Dragoon, Medievil, etc, are not there. I did not count games of the same IP with different genre as a different IP like Killzone and Killzone: Liberation or LBP and LBP Karting. I did not count party games like Singstar or Buzz.

As you can tell - I love my list wars :)

This still is nothing, you're including one offs or games with only one game in the series. If I did that, for Nintendo it'd be an insane list. And again, each is still considered a different series the goal never said anything about new IP, I said show IP that matched Nintendo's. And your total still doesn't exceed mine... Journey is an Idie game, But if you insist to include 1 and dones...

And yeah, I could keep this going for about 100 more...barely scratched the surface. Nintendo got into the game 12 years ahead of Sony, they have to have something to show for it. I don't think we should do this here, one of us is bound to get banned. Send me your list on my Wall or something if you wanna keep going. I kinda guarantee I'll win. And Make sure the games are develooped by Sony or one of their teams, not indie, multiplat, etc.

Edit: And it's not always necessarily about quantity, it's quality too that makes the 1st party. Look at how high Nintendo's games are scored above Sony's first party. No contest there either
