Thanks for voting but this countdown is about retro franchises, not individual games. Also it does not have to be 2D franchises (although it can be if you want), as you can vote for anything up until the PS/N64/Saturn era, or up until 2001 for the PC. Do you want to keep the same order as you have, but just have them counted as franchises instead of individual games?
