So much problems coming out from the perceived definition of "franchises".
Like if we are strictly speaking of a series of games then some of these choices are hugely debatable.
Also if we are going with the current Street Figther debate. I'd say, nowadays and it has been for a long time now. Smash Bros is the most important fighting game series dethroning the former quite easily from revenue and popularity alone.
Though should it be counted as a Mario spin-off? A Kirby spin-off ? It technically heavily inspires itself on the gameplay of Kirby SuperStar which Sakurai previously worked on.
Honestly, too much grey area to cover + I think a Top 10 makes the choices quite reductive.
