median does indeed mean he exact middle number of games. this user probably meant the average, at a glance there is a total of around 4,420 games owned by the 167 members of this thread so.... average is 26.5 games per member, but always remember that's a very small sample size and it's based on the buying habbits of enthusiast gamers who go on a gaming forum.

By my count, there are 4397 entries in the database, and 167 members.  So the mean is just over 26 games per member. Though tsogud is going to bring that up when I update the count for July.

The median of the game count is actually 2 as about 550 out of 899 games are owned by only one or two people.  The mode, consequently, is 1.

The median user owns 14 games. 

Hey I just done a run down through the numbers on the front page and got 4420! being out by 23 I'm pretty damn proud of, I'm off to join a "count the beans" competition.... or remake Rainman

I guess me and Talon being the sole owner of a great number of titles could be for one big reason... between me and Talon we own 1/8th of that 4k games.

Also for anyone considering buying the Senran game this month, the Pinball title, if you're on the fence about buying that for 40e guys.... honestly I might hold off for a discount, especially considering the game has just 2 tables and really only one of those is feature complete, the game is going to be full of DLC in about 6 months and in 12 months there will no doubt be a complete edition of this title, otherwise you're getting about 10ish hours of silly story and pinball without online leaderboards for 40e unless you really just want to support the beautiful Senran series on the Switch I would advise holding off for a discount maybe.

Damn, 6 titles in the top 20 that I don't own.... one of them being the Number 1 contender, I have played the Demo / intro to the game but honestly... it didn't hook me in.

Rabbits / Dark Souls / YsVIII not my thing

Diablo III and Wolfenstein completely are my thing... but given their size and availability on other systems far cheaper... I've been holding off on them, I could definitely see myself getting Wolfenstein on cart if I can find it on offer so as to avoid some of the massive install size that title requires. Even having a 400GB Micro SD card I can't be gifting away 30GB to a title I might not get into right away.

Well, there are 167 members who have posted their 3rd party game lists, so the median would be the 83rd/84th ranked member.  Those members have 14 3rd party games, so that's your median.

Yeah, thanks, that's exactly what I meant.

Over 26 games per player, that's quite a few no matter how you turn it.

Great work Octopath, and pleased to see Wolfenstein doing much better than I expected here. Also, Golf story doing pretty well.
