The only pokemon games I liked were the original ones (red & blue), probably because everybody liked pokemon, and as a kid, you HAVE to go with the other kids! :xd:
Anyway, my top ten franchises:
1. The Legend of Zelda
Do I need to explain anything?
2. Shin Megami Tensei
The fact that the majority of the modern JRPG games suck, combined with the fact that a relatively unknown developer called Atlus - which is actually very old (from the NES era, to be more precise) - is kicking every other JRPG developer's *** with it's AMAZING series of JRPGs "Shin Megami Tensei"... and nobody knows it, is killing me. :cry:
3. Metroid
I liked the 2D ones better, but the 3D ones are very good too! :yes:
4. Final Fantasy
Sadly, I don't think Square is what it used to be.
5. Fire Emblem
It's really unfortunate that the western side of the world has never known about one of the best RPG franchises of history - and the creator of the tactical RPG style - until recently. We missed SO MUCH content!
6. Mario
7. Donkey Kong / Megaman / Kirby
Couldn't chose between one of them!
8. Metal Gear Solid
9. Street Fighter
10. Resident Evil / Castlevania
