Mario, The legend of Zelda and Pokemon are the trinity of Nintendo. Those 3 made Nintendo a famous household name for gaming. Donkey Kong and Super Smash bros are real honourable mentions since they both are the biggest Nintendo franchise after the three listed.
john lowe I'm 20 years old. I didn't really play metroid, or was old enough when metroid was in its prime days so you're kind of right. I always thought Pokemon was apart of the trinity, but I guess it is now since metroid is not as popular as it used to be.
Disclaimer: I am a Nintendo fan, and this is not intended to hurt anybody's feelings and I love Mario, I just think it's overrated Let's be honest, the main reason people love Mario is because of nostalgia. If you say Mario won because he is the most iconic character, PACMAN would have won the race before it even started. If you say because of gameplay, it is (at least over half of the time) the same formula. Oh, NO! The princess is captured! I have to rescue her! Beat a normal world, beat a desert world, beat an ice world, beat a sky world, beat Bowser. BOOM! The end! P.S. Mii for Nintendo Mascot!
Same here. I agree with the other list they made saying Mario is a better character than Link, but I think ever since OoT that Zelda has been the better franchise. Mario went downhill on the move to 3D, but Zelda just got better.
Not to be that guy but I bet that almost any Nintendo fan will say Mario over Link Reason is Mario has been around longer than link and he has been in almost every game genre which makes him appeal to mor players than links one thing a hack and slash
"Even your parents know these franchises." Pokemon? Definitely. Mario and Donkey Kong? Sure. Anything else? Your parents are probably gamers if they do.
10 - F-Zero 9 - Mother 8 - Animal Crossing 7 - Fire Emblem 6 - Donkey Kong 5 - Super Smash Bros. 4 - Pokemon (even though it's not made by Nintendo, but GameFreak) 3 - Mario (from the 2D platformers, 3D collect-a-thons, RPGs, racers, party games, etc.) 2 - Metroid 1 - Zelda (kinda obvious, I know)
WATCHMOJO PLEASE SEE THIS With all the video game flops this year, like: destiny (500mil game) titanfall, ghosts you guys gotta make a top 10 video game flops. Thumbs up if you think it's a good idea!
For all of you people who say that Pokémon should be higher on the list because of their popularity, for their sales and how well-known it is... Congratulations!! You just accepted that shitty things like Justin Bieber, Nicki Minaj, MTV shows nowadays and One Direction deserve to be higher on every list of this kind... Seriously, people... Popularity/Great Sales has NOTHING to do with QUALITY... Yes, everyone can have their own opinion, but the "X is better because more people know it and it sells best" logic is flawed as hell.
***** Oh no no no, don't get me wrong (now that i read my original comment, i feel like i did it that way) but I really really Pokémon! Either the TV series, the games and all... I really do.. I just feel that in general, that "more people know it, more people buy it, so it's better" logic is flawed... Again, my example: Justin bieber has sold millions of cd's, million of people (generally, teenager girls) love him and know him... although he has ZERO quality... Pokémon deserves to be on this list because it's awesome... but people saying it deserves to be higher BECAUSE of its popularity, it's just wrong.
Well, video games are a different beast than TV and movies. People buy video games because they know what it is and they know that they want it. With TV and movies, it's more of an experiment. You show up to the theater or turn to the channel to see what it's like. If you like it, then you like it. But video games are more of a commitment than simply changing a channel. Regular people don't just buy all the games willy nilly. If you buy a game, it's because you know you're going to play it. So if more people buy Pokemon games, then more people are going to enjoy Pokemon. Of course, I hate this argument. It doesn't make the game better or worse, it makes it more well known and more widespread. I prefer Pokemon over LoZ because I grew up with Pokemon, played all the games, but I've only played the first Zelda game. That's just me though. This whole argument is a matter of opinion, and probably which game your parents gave you as a kid.
Here's the thing qualiy is important. Zelda is a better quality game. I love pokemon but ocarina of time? Majoras mask? Twilight princess? They are masterpieces in and of themselves.
it can be said that red/blue/fire red/leaf green and gold/silver/crystal/heartgold/soulsilver can be called masterpieces on their own as well. I love both series but i dont get why Zelda gets number 1 in every list its in (this is one of the few it hasnt) Zelda just seems kinda overrated to me honestly
Minato herushima Watchmojo may have a hardon for Zelda games, but that doesn't mean it deserves any less. Ocarina of Time is seen as the best game of all time for a reason, and honestly LoZ could have been #1 on this list if not for the fact that Mario is such a household name.
LOTRfanatic121 LoZ is a great francise ill agree, and i think nostalgia is one of the reasons OoT is seen has one of the best games of all time i mean majoras mask, wind waker, twilight princess and skyward sword do what ocarina does but better so wouldnt they be the best games of all time? Its cuz gamers nowdays plays N64 back when they were kids and they loved OoT back then. Same can be said for mario 64, its popularity is due mostly to nostalgia and not the game itself which is beaten by its predecessors.
LOTRfanatic121 OoT is the most overrated game of all time. It is nowhere near as good as people say it is. Same can be said for pretty much all 3D Zelda games
Gore6194ever Well, I find it hard to find any other game that could rival it. But hey, some people like games with dungeons and dragons, some like ghosts and goblins in their games, and others like purely innovative games, Such as Zelda, Kingdom Hearts, etc. I happen to fall in the latter category.
Great list! Here's mine! 11.Kid Icaurs 10:Pikmin 9.Kirby 8.Duck Hunt (I love old games 7.Star Fox 6. F-Zero 5.Donkey Kong 4.Super smash bros. ( All 4 of them.) 3.Poke'mon 2.Mario 1.Punch-out!!
Thanks! I love Punch out!! I'm surprised that it wasn't even an honorable mention! I hope there's a new punch out game coming soon to the Wii u or 3DS!
Nintendo has done very well in video games theyre games got the best quality too bad gamers today only care about shooters and graphics theyre missing out on the true king of video games
Everyone knows and knew Mario would top a Video Game Franchise top ten, even if it wasn't all about Nintendo, and I'm not talking about everyone's personal favorite since not everyone considers Mario to be their favorite video game franchise, I'm talking about the most successful and most popular video game franchises, and Mario is the biggest and most iconic of the bunch (let alone being an iconic character/the most iconic & popular video game character). And it can be said and considered that Mario is also one of the most iconic, most successful, and most popularly well known franchises (and merchandise) of all time. And I can say this to all, but there is not ONE person in the world who DOSEN'T know Mario.

***** Na because "playstation" isnt a company, sony just sits on it's ass and waits for others to make games for them, so it wouldnt be the same thing.
1) Super Mario Bros. 2) Pokemon 3) Legend of Zelda 4) Kirby 5) Metroid 6) Donkey Kong 7) Super Smash Bros. 8) Fire Emblem 9) Star Fox 10) Mother/Earthbound Honourable Mentions: Pikmin, Animal Crossing, Luigi's Mansion, Mario Kart & Miiverse (The games where Miis where the playable characters)
Well for various reasons. Zelda games are bigger (Thats obvius) and have more work of developers in ot. They have more quality and has been around since 1986. I love Pokemon btw
While I love Pokemon and Smash, there's not a whole lot of story that goes into them. In Pokemon, theres the bits and pieces of story when talking about legendary or ancient pokemon, but outside of that, it's just a kid capturing and training pokemon. Smash has it's story in Brawl, but nothing outside of that. Zelda has had an ongoing arc since its creation and I think that's why people love it so much.
Pokemon is my childhood...but LoZ is incredible and way better. It has some of the best storylines, best worlds, best design and best music in gaming history and the amount of times it's changed gaming is immense
My Personal List 10.Fire Emblem 9.Yoshi(he has his own games) 8.Pokemon 7.Kirby 6.Donkey Kong 5.Metroid 4.Starfox 3.The Legend of Zelda 2.Super Smash Bros 1.Mario
Let's see... Apart from the franchises mentionned in the video : Starfox Fire Emblem Kirby Animal Crossing Donkey Kong Metroid Super Smash bros Pokemon Zelda Kid Icarus Wii Sports Pikmin F-Zero Mario There is also : Mario Kart Dr.Mario ExciteBike Pilotwings Paper Mario Mario Party 1080 Snowboarding Wave Race Mario & Luigi WarioWare Luigi's Mansion Nintendogs Brain Age Professor Layton Mario Sports Yoshi Ice Climber Mario VS. Donkey Kong Game & Watch Chibi-Robo Golden Sun Xenoblade Punch-Out!! Endless Ocean Mother Steel Diver Excitebots Clu Clu Land Mach Rider Balloon Fight Duck Hunt Star Tropics Stunt Race FX Urban Champion Custom Robo Splatoon Electroplankton Wonderful 101 (I probably forgot some...) Haters be like "trololol Nintendo is always Mario & Zelda"...
Dr. Mario, Mario Kart, Mario vs. Donkey Kong, Mario and Luigi, Luigi's Mansion, Mario Party, Mario Sports, Paper Mario, Yoshi, and the Wario games are all part of the Mario franchise
rbraunbeck96 As spin-off... And even if they are, there are still more than 40 franchises that is not Mario. Also, Wario & Yoshi are their own franchises.
For all of those who keep saying Pokemin should be higher than Zelda: even though it is more popular and has more sales (mainly because it panders more to children) Zelda is a technically better series with consistently better made games. I like Pokemon as much as the next guy but the gameplay isn't exactly complex or challenging.
I respect your opinion. My argument for why Zelda should swap with Pokemon is that as well as higher sales, it is the second most well known franchise worldwide after Mario. Toys, films, soundtracks, TV, trading cards and games have dominated mainstream popularity for nearly 20 years. Zelda is truly fantastic also, I do agree that Ocarina of Time is the best game of all time, yet it's popularity is crushed under the weight of Pokémon. Thank you!
theYoungNation My counter-argument for those people who say that Pokemon should be higher because of how famous/well-known they are, is that, following that "logic", Justin Bieber, One Direction, Nikki Minaj should be the best thing that has ever happened to music as they have "dominated mainstream popul..blablabla".... AND I KNOW THEY ARE FUCKING NOT... There are millions of underground artists that are better than the mainstream ones, and their sales/popularity has nothing to do with their QUALITY..... Yes, Pokémon is awesome and more popular than TLoZ... yet TLoZ has been better with every single entry... Though, we are entitled to have our own opinion, am I right? Just that the argument of "one is better because of their popularity" is flawed as hell.. Thank you!
Yeah I get that. I've always said that Pokemon and Zelda are the second and third most significant franchises in Nintendo though which order they are in is arguable both ways. Whereas Pokemon has the merch and popularity, Zelda's popularity should not be under sold especially in the west and to a more vast age group. It should also count for something that it is an older addition to Nintendo. Those things plus the more complex and constantly evolving gameplay that I mentioned in my earlier post should count for something.
theYoungNation as for those who have said that Pokemon should be higher than Mario, well there opinions are obviously ridiculous. ;-) PS. My earlier reply was also meant for you though it was not posted as a reply to you. Still getting used to this TH-cam app.
AkibaMCRGrenias I'm all for a debate that allows open minded thought such as this, thank you for being civil. It isn't the point of Pokemon is more popular therefore it is better, just like TLoZ with each game better quality is introduced and unlike TLoZ, Pokemon fans find their selves immersed in a familiar setting with friendly faces to bond and nurture to become stronger. TLoZ is a single story and in my opinion has less to zero replayability compared to Pokemon. I rest my case... For now
Well if that is your personal preference, no one can argue with that. But objectively when we look at sales, gameplay, graphics, impact, game ratings I think Watch Mojo did a good job overall. I would of put Pokemon higher than Zelda though. But franchises like Earthbound are relatively unknown, and only 2 games were released in NA. And Kirby while good series is doesn't hold a candle to any of the top 5.
@@basheman1413 Kirby has held lots of candles actually but that's not the point. A top 10 list is always subjective especially if it is part of the entertainment industry. Also because it puts certain things above others when of course some of those properties are incomparable to each other unless subjective since all these games are a part of a different genre and even if this list was somehow the most objective it could possibly be I think top 10 lists should be subjective since the whole basis around a top 10 is listing favorites. Also saying Kirby doesn't hold a candle to any of the top 5 isn't true. 100% Kirby games are a blast. It's the perfect game because it starts out cute and easy and by the end of the game it gets hard and dark and expands the lore in some of the most creative ways I've ever seen in gaming. 100% Mario just offers pain and suffering and little anything in return...
@Blue That yes and because all of these franchises are so vastly different it pretty much all comes down to personal taste when saying what someones top 10 nintendo franchises are. There is no objective top 10 list even if you include sales and impact.
earthbond/mother anyone? sure it was not popular but the main reason that it went on the wiiU virtual console was because of the fan outcry. mother one or earthbound zero (or just earthbound on nes) was already translated but not released. earthbound or mother 2 was really really fun, and mother 3 or earthbound 2 has a fan translation.
people honestly need to realize that mario is not as good as they think it is. incredibly boring (platformers not open world) really easy, too same plot, peach and none of the characters have personality.

WatchMojo.com You guys screwed up on the SmashBros. part. Sakurai added in Nintendo characters because he feared Yamaguchi's rejection (the now dead Nintendo president) would prevent him going through with the idea of a platform fighter, which was suppose to have a completely original cast of human characters.
Samir Malik No, as in.. Pokemon itself was originally created by people from Game Freak, whereas the other franchises in the list originate from people inside of Nintendo.
I'm pretty sure Pokemon is more well known and successful than TLoZ. There are lots of channels devoted to pokemon, even one getting over a million subs. And some are rising like KingNappy, Shandypenguin , who practically gained 100thousand+ Subs within they're first year. Pokemon spawned Tv shows, and Manga. In the late 90s it was pokemania, pokemon was EVERYWHERE. Pokemon even got its own float in that thanksgiving parade Americans have. So I'm pretty sure pokemon is better than TLoZ
Daniel Reilly I'm not saying Pokemon's shit I'm saying Zelda's better. I mean COD has been one of the most average game series of the last few years and that sells a fuck ton.
MTI Gamer Actually Cod sales have been declining ever since black ops, so people are finally realizing how bad it is. Also if TLoZ is SOO much better how come it hasn't gained this sort popularity.
Bluperr You're not being sarcastic are you? Because personally, I think it's possible there would have been another console on the market by a company other than Microsoft to challenge the Nintendo & SONY partnership in my opinion. However, I do agree with you to an extent that there would less likely be any further competing consoles for a long time if Nintendo and SONY did team up to very end.
jonn mace Yes, I agree there would probably be a different rival console, but when Sony released the PlayStation, Microsoft started to lose customers to them. So they created the Xbox to tr and buy the customers back
Pokemon should have been number two. My argument for this is that not only are the games selling millions of units each year, the entire franchise is more famous than Zelda. Trading cards, TV series, movies and if course the games have revolutionised what it is to be a video game franchise. Zelda is by no means worse than Pokémon, as both are different genres, however I am open to debate if anyone disagrees (please don't be close minded)
Pokemon has literally become Nintendo's Call of Duty, A new game each year, rehashing the exact same formula of: you're a new kid hoping to be a Pokemon master, you get 1 of 3 new Pokemon. Defeat 8 gym leaders, then the elite 4, and along the way stop a criminal organisation.
+theYoungNation I totally agree with you there whenever a new LoZ game gets announced some people say that's so cool but their isn't as much excitement When a pokemon game gets announced there are people ALL over the internet with speculations, hopes, ETC. ORAS got 100s of countdown videos that started around the time it got announced when a pokemon game comes out there are so many LP's of their games, top 10's or 5's, how to's, battles, ETC. We're only a 6 days away from ORAS like if your going to buy/play it
You, sir, have a good taste! :) Those games easily have the best story out of any Pokémon games so far, and the gameplay is notably better than in the games before them. I personally like FR/LG and HG/SS a bit better, but that's purely for nostalgic reasons.
To be honest, I got bored of Black and White 2 straight away. My fave would have to be Soul Silver for updating my favourite region. However I do have a soft spot in my heart for the Sinnoh games and the Kalos games are growing on me.
My list 1. Mario Honorable Mentions Star Fox, Pikmin, Yoshi, WarioWare, Kid Icarus, Wii Series 2. Pokemon 3. Zelda 4. Smash 5. Metroid 6. DK 7. Kirby 8. Animal Crossing 9. Fire Emblem 10. Splatoon I only chose Splatoon over Pikmin and StarFox because of its great multiplayer and its rising popularity
My personal top 5: 1 Pokemon 2 Smash Bros 3 Pikmin 4 Fire Emblem 5 Zelda Wanna add Xenoblade chronicles to that list, but it's not quite a franchise just yet.
And Fire Emblem is made by Intelligent Systems. And pokemon is made by Gamefreak. Xenoblade is now in the same boat since Nintendo now owns monolith. It's why Shulk could appear in smash bros without being considered third party.
10. Metroid Prime 9. Pikmin 8. Mario Party 7. Mario Kart 6. Super Smash Bros. 5. Mother 4. Super Mario 3. Donkey Kong 2. Pokémon 1. The Legend of Zelda
Lol, look at all the people trying to justify Legend of Zelda beating Pokemon for the number 2 spot when there is only ONE reason why it was #2 on this list. Watch Mojo are total LOZ fanboys, this has been proven time and time again with there many lists.
"when there is only ONE reason why it was #2 on this list." • Better quality titles • Actually TRIES to change it up with every new title, unlike Pokemon where they had their biggest change since the past 14 years • Deep and thought-provoking storylines, while Pokemon only had like 1 or 2 • Has ventured into different gameplay elements, while Pokemon (main series titles, anyway) will always be stuck as an RPG.
JRPGPirate You misunderstood me. I said there is only one reason WATCHMOJO put this on the list. They have proven time and time again their bias towards LOZ. I'm not discrediting the games in anyway.
JRPGPirate Right.....the fans voted Mario 64 as number 10 on the best game of that generation and LOZ as number 1. Oh and they've consistently voted LOZ number on almost every list it's even been apart of. Do you know how rare it is to get fans to agree on something once let alone almost every single time??
***** Well when it comes to Nintendo, it's not like their most popular franchises aren't some of their most high quality. Popularity for Nintendo franchises come from being high quality and accessible to everyone, where popularity for other developers comes from insane hype and mainstream style gameplay.
Even though I am 15 actually, and Just because it is your most favorite does not mean it will be someone else's favorite. I mean if I made this list Fire Emblem would be Number 1 and Zelda would be dead last. Using terms like Weeb to shut someone up is a pathetic arguement. Metroid has never interested me. It never has and it never will. get over yourself you manchild.
All you people complaining that Pokemon should have been higher than Zelda need to take off your nostalgia goggles and actually compare the games from a non-biased, critical perspective to understand why it surpasses Pokemon. Pokemon is my personal favorite video game franchise and has been since I was 5 years old, but it is not without its faults. Every Pokemon game uses the exact same formula and hasn't dared to try anything different from its tried and true formula since its inception. Zelda is a series that has and continues to innovate not just within its genre, but gaming as a whole, something Pokemon cannot say. Zelda has always been ahead of its time, whereas Pokemon has always been behind. Not to mention the fact that the Zelda series is a decade older than Pokemon. On another note, NO EARTHBOUND?! NSBSCRB
Ahead? Dude, Zelda has SOME handheld games, but CONSOLES are were Zelda shines. Handheld primary game is competing with console primary, that's easy. Even then, is the Wii U very powerful? Nope! I love the Wii U a lot more than PS4 and Xbox One,Cnut both of those systems are nine times more powerful!
I agree with this list entirely Mine are: 3.Mario 2.Smash Bros. 1. Zelda P.S. All of these Microsoft and Sony fanboys can't say anything about Nintendo because you probably haven't played their games and just because systems don't sell it doesn't mean their any bad!!!!
Pokemon is by far more popular then Zelda but Zelda has produced the better games which is why they have received such high praise by critics everywhere. I myself got lost in Pokemon is the late 90s and throughout the early 20th century but Zelda by far has produced the most memorable games I will ever play. Not taking anything away from Pokemon but Zelda is Nintendo's #2 franchise based off the quality of their games. Not to mention one of the best story lines in video game history. Zelda always seem to have one of the best games on almost every Nintendo console. Any video game critic/reviewer will say as such for these games. OoT/MM N64 ALTTP SNES SS/TP Wii WW Gamecube Link's awakening/Oracles GB ALBW 3DS Popularity and number of games sold don't mean jack. Quality is everything and WatchMojo isn't biased, they simply appreciate the high quality video games the Zelda Franchise has produced. Don't get me wrong Pokemon has produced incredible games but they shouldn't be higher based off popularity or the number of games sold. Quality over quantity.
Haven't played Zelda much (waiting for 3DS Majora's Mask because I'm very interested in that one) because I never had the right consoles, so I can't talk about it, but isn't it kind of unfair to both franchises to compare Zelda and Pokemon when they're completely different types of games? Pokemon is also made with a younger audience as main target so you can't really expect it to have a deep and complicated story.
Ehllychan If you're going to play Majora's Mask first, I highly suggest playing any other game first. I say this because Majora's Mask is a very differently played game and is a sequel. Ocarina of Time is a great first game and the newer A Link Between Worlds is also considered to be one of the best games on the 3DS.
Thanks for the suggestion! :) But from what I read and watched about all the games and from what my friends who played the games have told me, I really am interested in Majora's Mask exactly because it's different. While I have no doubt the story is good, the style of the other games you mentioned really didn't catch my interest much.
Eric Seguin If that was the case then Poke'mon would be #2 whenever you ask IGN, Gametrailers, and etc of the top 10 Nintendo franchises. Unfortunately that is not the case since they almost always say Zelda is #2. That's based off of various professional opinions and proves sales and popularity does not prove that a game should be higher rated. If that was the case every COD game would be game of the year. Instead high quality games like the the last of us get higher ratings by reviewers. That is fact. Popularity and sales are not in this case or else, again, Poke'mon would be #2 and every COD would be game of year.
I'd just like to say please don't hate on a game just because you don't like it, be respectful of others opinion when you make a comment. Also, I've been seeing a lot of people saying that pokemon is the same rehashed game every year, and yes to some extent it is. Which is why I absolutely love the franchise. I know exactly what I'm getting when I purchase the game. I adore the basic formula + additions that gamefreak makes every generation, I wouldn't want them any other way tbh
zelda should be no 1. It actually tries to reinvent itself with every major installment unlike mario where there has been only 3 truly innovative titles in its existence. Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Bros. All the other installments are rehashed trite; tell me why that is more deserving than Zelda. Sure its iconic and successful but that does not mean its superior
Let's be realistic Mario is #1.... It's the most popular character on Nintendo, everyone knows him. If u ask a random person I'm the street who he is their most likely going to know him, if you do that with Loz their not going to know it.... Mario is obviously #1
My top ten Nintendo franchise and my favorite game of each franchise (personal opinion) 10. Pikmin 9. Donkey Kong 8. Animal Crossing (New leaf) 7. Smash Bro's (Brawl) 6. Mother (Earthbound) 5. Mario (Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2) 4. Metroid (Metroid Prime series) 3. Kirby (Kirby Superstar Ultra) 2. LoZ (Majora's Mask) 1. Pokemon (Pokemon Oras)
Nice list, here's mine 1: Legend of Zelda (sorry Mario) 2: Mario 3: Kirby 4: Metroid 5: Donkey Kong 6: Super Smash Bros 7: Fire Emblem 8: Star Fox 9: Pokémon 10: Kid Icarus
When I bought my first console a year ago, it was just a regular Wii. Everyone asked why I got a Wii. Well, Mario, that's pretty much it. I'm not a gamer otherwise, I just think Mario games are fun. :)
What I love about nintendo is their franchises are so diverse and you have many different options for what you want to play. Look at this: Strategy rpg- fire emblem Action rpg- legend of Zelda Platformers- donkey kong, super mario, Kirby On rail shooter- star fox, kid icurus (3ds) Shooter- splatoon (2016) Fighter- super smash bros Racer- mario kart Puzzle- pikmen Open world- LoZ (again) Simulation- tomodachi life...sorta... Weird mini game shit- Wario ware Fitness- wii fit Sports- mario sports spinoffs, wii sports Plus you have a bunch of other games that just don't fall into categories because they are so unique. The only genres that nintendo don't have games for are more realistic type games, but those are almost always supported by third party. I also probably missed a few so tell me if I did
I don't understand how pokemon isn't #2 it's nintendos flagship handheld title (a market that nintendo is winning by a landlide.) And the second biggest game series in the world by sales. It has its own world championship in both video game and card game and has several successful spinoff series. It should be in the number two spot without question
***** "Populatiry doesnt mean shit, sales dont mean shit. Well then what does?" Ever heard of the word quality? "FUCK Zelda, its a stupid overrated gay cancer game." It's underrated, first off, and even if it wasn't you're over here throwing a hissy fit like a 5-year-old. "It doesnt even have the fucking name of the main caracter as title. Its like saying mario is called peach." Why does that bother you, exactly?
***** Well you are considering a large market of those sales/popularity is from a tv show, merchandise and etc. Video games and video games only. [I rate them both the same, I love to play both.]
Seriously? Pikmin is an honourable mention? That game deserves at least the top 5, Pikmin is probably one of Nintendo's best series. My list would have to be: 10. Fire Emblem 9. Pokemon 8. Fire Emblem 7. Metroid 6. Xenoblade 5. Smash Bros. 4. Donkey Kong 3. Pikmin 2 & 1. Mario and Zelda (They are equally tied -- Both are incredible series and I don't think they can compete with each other. I couldn't put one over the other.)
Regular Random Person Mario is the most knows video game character in the world almost every person knows who mario is that is probably true with zelda but not in the same way as mario.
Lanmater The games on this list wasn't just listed by popularity wasn't made just by popularity. If it was Nintendo+Catz, Wii Series, and other such would be higher or on the list. It was made by critical acclaim from critics and fans alike (doesn't include popularity), always fun gameplay, and a decent amount of fame. Which is why TC thought in his opinion that Zelda should just be number 1.
It's a good top but mine would be 10) F-Zero 9) Super Smash Bros 8) Pikmin 7) Animal Crossing 6) Metroid 5) Xenoblade 4) MOTHER 3) Fire Emblem 2) Pocket Monsters 1) The Legend of Zelda Honorable mentions: Hoshi no Kirby, Prof Layton, Ace Attorney, 1080, LovePlus, TWEWY, Bayonetta, SMT and other 3th party exclusives
Fire emblem is so underrated. It's my favourite rpg ever, and that's an achievment, since i usually hate rpgs, especially jrpgs with term based gameplay, and it's still my favourite game ever (awakening specifically).I understand it's spot, but it has better quality than any other game i've played.
This is based on quality of games. Not their success. Pokemon would not be near as popular without its own long running TV show and merchandise. As a standalone game, Pokemon is boring as hell and repetitive. The only things that's changed since the 90's is more Pokemon and better graphics (as expected). Zelda, on the other hand, has a deep, refreshing storyline every game. It brings new mechanics and art styles with it every title. Each game is *always* considered one of the greatest games of the year, some being called the greatest ever made. These are opinions agreed upon by many game reviewers/forums. I can only imagine how much more popular Zelda would be with the same amount of attention Nintendo gives Pokemon.
I wouldn't think so really... if they could pull that much outside video game popularity I would be happy and surprised xD. [Imaging the most quiet anime ever.]
Yeah, doofus, the Sinnoh saga will blow your mind. (Anime is better than the games oddly enough) Kalos is getting better. I will say the Unova anime sucked major balls not because of who was obtained but what was done with them. The games are nigh on perfect, except for stupid Musicals. I hate you Musicals (not movies nor stage plays).
I haven´t watched the video yet...
I bet:
3 - Poekmon
2 - Legends of zelda
1 - Mario
Are you a wizard?
i was right...
LIAR
***** no... it was pretty obvious... I bet i wasnt the only one who knew who top 3 would be.
yeh i was jk
Mario, The legend of Zelda and Pokemon are the trinity of Nintendo. Those 3 made Nintendo a famous household name for gaming. Donkey Kong and Super Smash bros are real honourable mentions since they both are the biggest Nintendo franchise after the three listed.
Don't forget Kirby!

john lowe I'm 20 years old. I didn't really play metroid, or was old enough when metroid was in its prime days so you're kind of right. I always thought Pokemon was apart of the trinity, but I guess it is now since metroid is not as popular as it used to be.
Zelda is at the top! that what I think at least
Why is everyone complaining about Mario winning? It was pretty obvious it was gonna win.
Because they want to feel all "badass" and hate on it because it's the most popular N franchise...
Agreed!
theredhatter Everyone wants to be hipster
I knew what the top three were going to be before i even clicked on the video
Disclaimer: I am a Nintendo fan, and this is not intended to hurt anybody's feelings and I love Mario, I just think it's overrated
Let's be honest, the main reason people love Mario is because of nostalgia. If you say Mario won because he is the most iconic character, PACMAN would have won the race before it even started. If you say because of gameplay, it is (at least over half of the time) the same formula. Oh, NO! The princess is captured! I have to rescue her! Beat a normal world, beat a desert world, beat an ice world, beat a sky world, beat Bowser. BOOM! The end! P.S. Mii for Nintendo Mascot!
my favourite nintendo francise is legend of zelda
Mine too!
Same I love tlz
Same here. I agree with the other list they made saying Mario is a better character than Link, but I think ever since OoT that Zelda has been the better franchise. Mario went downhill on the move to 3D, but Zelda just got better.
Maximus lucas i do
Not to be that guy but I bet that almost any Nintendo fan will say Mario over Link
Reason is Mario has been around longer than link and he has been in almost every game genre which makes him appeal to mor players than links one thing a hack and slash
"Even your parents know these franchises."

For all of you people who say that Pokémon should be higher on the list because of their popularity, for their sales and how well-known it is... Congratulations!! You just accepted that shitty things like Justin Bieber, Nicki Minaj, MTV shows nowadays and One Direction deserve to be higher on every list of this kind...
Seriously, people... Popularity/Great Sales has NOTHING to do with QUALITY...
Yes, everyone can have their own opinion, but the "X is better because more people know it and it sells best" logic is flawed as hell.
Preach it brother!
***** Extremely repetitive*
***** Oh no no no, don't get me wrong (now that i read my original comment, i feel like i did it that way) but I really really Pokémon! Either the TV series, the games and all... I really do.. I just feel that in general, that "more people know it, more people buy it, so it's better" logic is flawed... Again, my example: Justin bieber has sold millions of cd's, million of people (generally, teenager girls) love him and know him... although he has ZERO quality...
Pokémon deserves to be on this list because it's awesome... but people saying it deserves to be higher BECAUSE of its popularity, it's just wrong.
Well, video games are a different beast than TV and movies. People buy video games because they know what it is and they know that they want it. With TV and movies, it's more of an experiment. You show up to the theater or turn to the channel to see what it's like. If you like it, then you like it. But video games are more of a commitment than simply changing a channel. Regular people don't just buy all the games willy nilly. If you buy a game, it's because you know you're going to play it. So if more people buy Pokemon games, then more people are going to enjoy Pokemon. Of course, I hate this argument. It doesn't make the game better or worse, it makes it more well known and more widespread. I prefer Pokemon over LoZ because I grew up with Pokemon, played all the games, but I've only played the first Zelda game. That's just me though. This whole argument is a matter of opinion, and probably which game your parents gave you as a kid.
You are so right, it's unbelievable how many idiots think that.
Pokemon is doing pretty well(except for their tv shows we all know the original was the best)
Gen 3 for the win, I'm excited for the remakes!
So True
Here's the thing qualiy is important. Zelda is a better quality game. I love pokemon but ocarina of time? Majoras mask? Twilight princess? They are masterpieces in and of themselves.
it can be said that red/blue/fire red/leaf green and gold/silver/crystal/heartgold/soulsilver can be called masterpieces on their own as well. I love both series but i dont get why Zelda gets number 1 in every list its in (this is one of the few it hasnt) Zelda just seems kinda overrated to me honestly
Minato herushima Watchmojo may have a hardon for Zelda games, but that doesn't mean it deserves any less. Ocarina of Time is seen as the best game of all time for a reason, and honestly LoZ could have been #1 on this list if not for the fact that Mario is such a household name.
LOTRfanatic121 LoZ is a great francise ill agree, and i think nostalgia is one of the reasons OoT is seen has one of the best games of all time i mean majoras mask, wind waker, twilight princess and skyward sword do what ocarina does but better so wouldnt they be the best games of all time? Its cuz gamers nowdays plays N64 back when they were kids and they loved OoT back then. Same can be said for mario 64, its popularity is due mostly to nostalgia and not the game itself which is beaten by its predecessors.
LOTRfanatic121 OoT is the most overrated game of all time. It is nowhere near as good as people say it is. Same can be said for pretty much all 3D Zelda games
Gore6194ever Well, I find it hard to find any other game that could rival it. But hey, some people like games with dungeons and dragons, some like ghosts and goblins in their games, and others like purely innovative games, Such as Zelda, Kingdom Hearts, etc. I happen to fall in the latter category.
Damn I did not see that number 1 coming!

Nintendo has done very well in video games theyre games got the best quality too bad gamers today only care about shooters and graphics theyre missing out on the true king of video games
I totally agree. All these games have a unique, nostalgic feel to them that makes them timeless. It's why Nintendo is my favorite gaming company.
You, I like you now. Were friends now.
Michael Snow yes, I rarely play games outside Nintendo
Everyone knows and knew Mario would top a Video Game Franchise top ten, even if it wasn't all about Nintendo, and I'm not talking about everyone's personal favorite since not everyone considers Mario to be their favorite video game franchise, I'm talking about the most successful and most popular video game franchises, and Mario is the biggest and most iconic of the bunch (let alone being an iconic character/the most iconic & popular video game character). And it can be said and considered that Mario is also one of the most iconic, most successful, and most popularly well known franchises (and merchandise) of all time. And I can say this to all, but there is not ONE person in the world who DOSEN'T know Mario.
Jeffrey Santiago Well, Thanks.

Anyone else confused how Legend of Zelda beat Pokemon? Poekmon is waaay more popular, i was a bit surprised when Legend of Zelda beat Smash.
Well for various reasons. Zelda games are bigger (Thats obvius) and have more work of developers in ot. They have more quality and has been around since 1986. I love Pokemon btw
Zelda games are bigger and better than pokemon. I'm not saying I hate pokemon but legend of zelda will always be better than pokemon
TheUmbrellaCorpX7 Sales don't really matter when it comes to a list about which franchise is better than the other.
While I love Pokemon and Smash, there's not a whole lot of story that goes into them. In Pokemon, theres the bits and pieces of story when talking about legendary or ancient pokemon, but outside of that, it's just a kid capturing and training pokemon. Smash has it's story in Brawl, but nothing outside of that. Zelda has had an ongoing arc since its creation and I think that's why people love it so much.
Pokemon is my childhood...but LoZ is incredible and way better. It has some of the best storylines, best worlds, best design and best music in gaming history and the amount of times it's changed gaming is immense
Nintendo, you really should invest more on Metroid.
Such an awesome and yet, underrated series
Metroid is definitely not underrated.

Well, my bad lol
and pokemon
Dr. Mario, Mario Kart, Mario vs. Donkey Kong, Mario and Luigi, Luigi's Mansion, Mario Party, Mario Sports, Paper Mario, Yoshi, and the Wario games are all part of the Mario franchise
rbraunbeck96 As spin-off... And even if they are, there are still more than 40 franchises that is not Mario.
Also, Wario & Yoshi are their own franchises.
For all of those who keep saying Pokemin should be higher than Zelda: even though it is more popular and has more sales (mainly because it panders more to children) Zelda is a technically better series with consistently better made games. I like Pokemon as much as the next guy but the gameplay isn't exactly complex or challenging.
I respect your opinion. My argument for why Zelda should swap with Pokemon is that as well as higher sales, it is the second most well known franchise worldwide after Mario. Toys, films, soundtracks, TV, trading cards and games have dominated mainstream popularity for nearly 20 years. Zelda is truly fantastic also, I do agree that Ocarina of Time is the best game of all time, yet it's popularity is crushed under the weight of Pokémon. Thank you!
theYoungNation My counter-argument for those people who say that Pokemon should be higher because of how famous/well-known they are, is that, following that "logic", Justin Bieber, One Direction, Nikki Minaj should be the best thing that has ever happened to music as they have "dominated mainstream popul..blablabla".... AND I KNOW THEY ARE FUCKING NOT... There are millions of underground artists that are better than the mainstream ones, and their sales/popularity has nothing to do with their QUALITY.....
Yes, Pokémon is awesome and more popular than TLoZ... yet TLoZ has been better with every single entry...
Though, we are entitled to have our own opinion, am I right? Just that the argument of "one is better because of their popularity" is flawed as hell.. Thank you!
Yeah I get that. I've always said that Pokemon and Zelda are the second and third most significant franchises in Nintendo though which order they are in is arguable both ways. Whereas Pokemon has the merch and popularity, Zelda's popularity should not be under sold especially in the west and to a more vast age group. It should also count for something that it is an older addition to Nintendo. Those things plus the more complex and constantly evolving gameplay that I mentioned in my earlier post should count for something.
theYoungNation as for those who have said that Pokemon should be higher than Mario, well there opinions are obviously ridiculous. ;-) PS. My earlier reply was also meant for you though it was not posted as a reply to you. Still getting used to this TH-cam app.
AkibaMCRGrenias I'm all for a debate that allows open minded thought such as this, thank you for being civil. It isn't the point of Pokemon is more popular therefore it is better, just like TLoZ with each game better quality is introduced and unlike TLoZ, Pokemon fans find their selves immersed in a familiar setting with friendly faces to bond and nurture to become stronger. TLoZ is a single story and in my opinion has less to zero replayability compared to Pokemon. I rest my case... For now

Well if that is your personal preference, no one can argue with that. But objectively when we look at sales, gameplay, graphics, impact, game ratings I think Watch Mojo did a good job overall. I would of put Pokemon higher than Zelda though.
But franchises like Earthbound are relatively unknown, and only 2 games were released in NA. And Kirby while good series is doesn't hold a candle to any of the top 5.
@@basheman1413 Kirby has held lots of candles actually but that's not the point. A top 10 list is always subjective especially if it is part of the entertainment industry.
Also because it puts certain things above others when of course some of those properties are incomparable to each other unless subjective since all these games are a part of a different genre and even if this list was somehow the most objective it could possibly be I think top 10 lists should be subjective since the whole basis around a top 10 is listing favorites.
Also saying Kirby doesn't hold a candle to any of the top 5 isn't true. 100% Kirby games are a blast. It's the perfect game because it starts out cute and easy and by the end of the game it gets hard and dark and expands the lore in some of the most creative ways I've ever seen in gaming.
100% Mario just offers pain and suffering and little anything in return...
@Blue That yes and because all of these franchises are so vastly different it pretty much all comes down to personal taste when saying what someones top 10 nintendo franchises are.
There is no objective top 10 list even if you include sales and impact.
earthbond/mother anyone? sure it was not popular but the main reason that it went on the wiiU virtual console was because of the fan outcry. mother one or earthbound zero (or just earthbound on nes) was already translated but not released. earthbound or mother 2 was really really fun, and mother 3 or earthbound 2 has a fan translation.
the reason that this is not on all caps is because this I am trying to keep my cool

Pokemon isn't actually a Nintendo franchise, it was made by Game Freak and is Licensed by Nintendo.
Zed ther So? More than half of these game franchises aren't made by Nintendo themselves. But they are all owned by them
Samir Malik No, as in.. Pokemon itself was originally created by people from Game Freak, whereas the other franchises in the list originate from people inside of Nintendo.
I would have placed Kirby higher on the list and would have made the wario franchise at least an honourable mention but other than that great list :)
WHAT ID PLACE HIM AT NO:4
I'm pretty sure Pokemon is more well known and successful than TLoZ. There are lots of channels devoted to pokemon, even one getting over a million subs. And some are rising like KingNappy, Shandypenguin , who practically gained 100thousand+ Subs within they're first year. Pokemon spawned Tv shows, and Manga. In the late 90s it was pokemania, pokemon was EVERYWHERE. Pokemon even got its own float in that thanksgiving parade Americans have. So I'm pretty sure pokemon is better than TLoZ
Quality of the games and popularity are two different things and Zelda is much better in terms of quality.
Well the games wouldn't be popular is they sucked, now would they?
Yeah but Pokemon's shit.
Daniel Reilly I'm not saying Pokemon's shit I'm saying Zelda's better. I mean COD has been one of the most average game series of the last few years and that sells a fuck ton.
MTI Gamer Actually Cod sales have been declining ever since black ops, so people are finally realizing how bad it is. Also if TLoZ is SOO much better how come it hasn't gained this sort popularity.
Here's how I would have made the top 5, 5-Donkey Kong, 4-Mario, 3-Smash Bros, 2-Metriod, 1-Zelda!

My favourite Nintendo franchise is the Sony PlayStation
Considering the PlayStation technically does have Nintendo roots, you can say that again. :-D
jonn mace Exactly, if it wasn't for Nintendo and Sony breaking apart and making other consoles then the Xbox would probably not exist.
Bluperr You're not being sarcastic are you? Because personally, I think it's possible there would have been another console on the market by a company other than Microsoft to challenge the Nintendo & SONY partnership in my opinion. However, I do agree with you to an extent that there would less likely be any further competing consoles for a long time if Nintendo and SONY did team up to very end.
jonn mace Yes, I agree there would probably be a different rival console, but when Sony released the PlayStation, Microsoft started to lose customers to them. So they created the Xbox to tr and buy the customers back
mad ray Yes sir, they sure did! :-D
Pokemon should have been number two. My argument for this is that not only are the games selling millions of units each year, the entire franchise is more famous than Zelda. Trading cards, TV series, movies and if course the games have revolutionised what it is to be a video game franchise. Zelda is by no means worse than Pokémon, as both are different genres, however I am open to debate if anyone disagrees (please don't be close minded)
i agree
Pokemon has literally become Nintendo's Call of Duty,
A new game each year, rehashing the exact same formula of: you're a new kid hoping to be a Pokemon master, you get 1 of 3 new Pokemon. Defeat 8 gym leaders, then the elite 4, and along the way stop a criminal organisation.
I agree too. It just seems to be that the people who make these lists have their reasons to prefer Zelda over Pokémon.
+theYoungNation I totally agree with you there whenever a new LoZ game gets announced some people say that's so cool but their isn't as much excitement
When a pokemon game gets announced there are people ALL over the internet with speculations, hopes, ETC. ORAS got 100s of countdown videos that started around the time it got announced when a pokemon game comes out there are so many LP's of their games, top 10's or 5's, how to's, battles, ETC.
We're only a 6 days away from ORAS like if your going to buy/play it

4)Kirby
As much as I like Mario and SEGA's Sonic the Hedgehog, Pokemon is my most favorite franchise. I think their best Pokemon Games are Black 2 & White 2.
You, sir, have a good taste! :) Those games easily have the best story out of any Pokémon games so far, and the gameplay is notably better than in the games before them. I personally like FR/LG and HG/SS a bit better, but that's purely for nostalgic reasons.
wikiuser92 i love them but i like the nostalgia of Fire Red and Leaf Green
If only they had Battle Frontier, then the game would probably be the game that has it all.
yeah hopefully the new games will be good
To be honest, I got bored of Black and White 2 straight away. My fave would have to be Soul Silver for updating my favourite region. However I do have a soft spot in my heart for the Sinnoh games and the Kalos games are growing on me.

Wanna add Xenoblade chronicles to that list, but it's not quite a franchise just yet.
Also xenoblade isn't made by Nintendo, it's made by monolith
And Fire Emblem is made by Intelligent Systems. And pokemon is made by Gamefreak. Xenoblade is now in the same boat since Nintendo now owns monolith. It's why Shulk could appear in smash bros without being considered third party.
TheRedEnderman1 they own monolith soft so its goes under nintendo's name.

• Actually TRIES to change it up with every new title, unlike Pokemon where they had their biggest change since the past 14 years
• Deep and thought-provoking storylines, while Pokemon only had like 1 or 2
• Has ventured into different gameplay elements, while Pokemon (main series titles, anyway) will always be stuck as an RPG.
JRPGPirate You misunderstood me. I said there is only one reason WATCHMOJO put this on the list. They have proven time and time again their bias towards LOZ. I'm not discrediting the games in anyway.
1rkhachatryan Then let set my attention towards that: It's the FANS that vote, not them.
JRPGPirate Right.....the fans voted Mario 64 as number 10 on the best game of that generation and LOZ as number 1. Oh and they've consistently voted LOZ number on almost every list it's even been apart of. Do you know how rare it is to get fans to agree on something once let alone almost every single time??
1rkhachatryan It's just fanboys being fanboys, really.
I really fucking wonder what number one could be. Really. I have absolutely no clue what it could be.
my top 3 guesses before watching this video:
1. Mario
2. Legend of Zelda
3. Pokemon
Congrats
that proves their point, doesnt it. These lists arent supposed to come as a surprise on topics like these
Jake Rose its basically a top "most popular" nintendo franchises
*****
Well when it comes to Nintendo, it's not like their most popular franchises aren't some of their most high quality. Popularity for Nintendo franchises come from being high quality and accessible to everyone, where popularity for other developers comes from insane hype and mainstream style gameplay.
***** If it was most popular, then Fire Emblem wouldn't even come close to making it on the list.
1 Mario
2 The Legend of Zelda
3 Metroid
4 Super Smash Bros
5 Donkey Kong
6 F-Zero
7 Star Fox
8 Golden Sun
9 Kid Icarus
10 Kirby
My favorite Nintendo series is Pokemon
1 Legend of Zelda
2 Pokémon
3 Super Smash Bros
4 starfox
5 f Zero
6 Mario
7 Kirby
8 Donkey Kong
9 battletanx
10 metroid
Excuse me why the fuck is Metroid dead last???
Cause its boring.
Terpeace 7 fire emblem>Metroid
***** I bet these idiots never tried metroid Prime before, that game is the BEST metroid game ever!!!
Even though I am 15 actually, and Just because it is your most favorite does not mean it will be someone else's favorite. I mean if I made this list Fire Emblem would be Number 1 and Zelda would be dead last. Using terms like Weeb to shut someone up is a pathetic arguement. Metroid has never interested me. It never has and it never will. get over yourself you manchild.
Mother should have AT LEAST been in honorable mentions.
EpicMarioBros But that has only had one game for us.
Its still epic!
EpicMarioBros But not exactly a franchise here.
EpicMarioBros Ikr Thank you
10. Punch out
9. Kirby
8. Animal Crossing
7. Star Fox
6. Fire Emblem
5. Smash Bros
4. Mario
3. Pokemon
2: Earthbound
1. Zelda
All you people complaining that Pokemon should have been higher than Zelda need to take off your nostalgia goggles and actually compare the games from a non-biased, critical perspective to understand why it surpasses Pokemon. Pokemon is my personal favorite video game franchise and has been since I was 5 years old, but it is not without its faults. Every Pokemon game uses the exact same formula and hasn't dared to try anything different from its tried and true formula since its inception. Zelda is a series that has and continues to innovate not just within its genre, but gaming as a whole, something Pokemon cannot say. Zelda has always been ahead of its time, whereas Pokemon has always been behind. Not to mention the fact that the Zelda series is a decade older than Pokemon.
On another note, NO EARTHBOUND?! NSBSCRB
ppl play pokemon because they
have that the exect formula make the pokemon games special so pls i accept yur opinoin but m favorite is pokemon
Earthbound probably wasn't included because the first two games weren't successful when first released in the USA. Earthbound is just a cult hit now.
Yeah, that's true. You got me there.
Ahead? Dude, Zelda has SOME handheld games, but CONSOLES are were Zelda shines. Handheld primary game is competing with console primary, that's easy. Even then, is the Wii U very powerful? Nope! I love the Wii U a lot more than PS4 and Xbox One,Cnut both of those systems are nine times more powerful!
mcmuffinerson except now with sun and moon lol
People will hate me for this but Kirby > Mario Their I said it!.
So true
kirby>mario
Mario is a lot better but I respect your opinion
And people are going to go apeshit in 3...2....1.... Pokemon>Zelda
BenTheBeast55 #Gamer no i don't play pokemon
+justice renoux one you typed not said it. 2 you used the wrong 'there"
justice renoux yes
Did anyone else guess the top 3 perfectly? It was kinda obvious.
No doubt, I pretty much know the Top 3 the moment I begin watching this video. And I was right.
I knew the Top 4 and I was right ,but the list is pretty obvious to begin with.
I agree with this list entirely Mine are:
3.Mario
2.Smash Bros.
1. Zelda
P.S. All of these Microsoft and Sony fanboys can't say anything about Nintendo because you probably haven't played their games and just because systems don't sell it doesn't mean their any bad!!!!
Pokemon is by far more popular then Zelda but Zelda has produced the better games which is why they have received such high praise by critics everywhere.
I myself got lost in Pokemon is the late 90s and throughout the early 20th century but Zelda by far has produced the most memorable games I will ever play. Not taking anything away from Pokemon but Zelda is Nintendo's #2 franchise based off the quality of their games. Not to mention one of the best story lines in video game history.
Zelda always seem to have one of the best games on almost every Nintendo console. Any video game critic/reviewer will say as such for these games.

Popularity and number of games sold don't mean jack. Quality is everything and WatchMojo isn't biased, they simply appreciate the high quality video games the Zelda Franchise has produced. Don't get me wrong Pokemon has produced incredible games but they shouldn't be higher based off popularity or the number of games sold.
Quality over quantity.
Haven't played Zelda much (waiting for 3DS Majora's Mask because I'm very interested in that one) because I never had the right consoles, so I can't talk about it, but isn't it kind of unfair to both franchises to compare Zelda and Pokemon when they're completely different types of games?
Pokemon is also made with a younger audience as main target so you can't really expect it to have a deep and complicated story.
Ehllychan If you're going to play Majora's Mask first, I highly suggest playing any other game first. I say this because Majora's Mask is a very differently played game and is a sequel. Ocarina of Time is a great first game and the newer A Link Between Worlds is also considered to be one of the best games on the 3DS.
Thanks for the suggestion! :)
But from what I read and watched about all the games and from what my friends who played the games have told me, I really am interested in Majora's Mask exactly because it's different.
While I have no doubt the story is good, the style of the other games you mentioned really didn't catch my interest much.
Quality is an opinion, sales and popularity are facts.
Eric Seguin If that was the case then Poke'mon would be #2 whenever you ask IGN, Gametrailers, and etc of the top 10 Nintendo franchises. Unfortunately that is not the case since they almost always say Zelda is #2.
That's based off of various professional opinions and proves sales and popularity does not prove that a game should be higher rated. If that was the case every COD game would be game of the year. Instead high quality games like the the last of us get higher ratings by reviewers.
That is fact. Popularity and sales are not in this case or else, again, Poke'mon would be #2 and every COD would be game of year.
I'd just like to say please don't hate on a game just because you don't like it, be respectful of others opinion when you make a comment. Also, I've been seeing a lot of people saying that pokemon is the same rehashed game every year, and yes to some extent it is. Which is why I absolutely love the franchise. I know exactly what I'm getting when I purchase the game. I adore the basic formula + additions that gamefreak makes every generation, I wouldn't want them any other way tbh
true was a fan from te start and this is the reazon why i still love them
my top 10 opinion
1. legend of Zelda
2. smash Bros
3. Mario
4. chrono trigger
5. pokemon
6. star fox
7. earthbound /mother
8. metroid
9. kid icarus
10. Kirby
chrono trigger lmfao are you serious? I might be stupid, but I'm pretty sure it's Square Enix
it's by Square
Go Zelda!
Top 5 are
1. Zelda
2. Mother
3. Metroid
4. Fire emblem
5. Mario
At least put Mother as an honorable mention!
did we get mother 1? i thought the only mother game to come to the states was earthbound (amazingly fun btw)
Minato herushima
I hoped EarthBound/Mother was going to be on the list because I saw Lucas on the thumbnail.
earthbound was alot of fun but i could see why it wasnt since most people i know have only heard of earthbound/ mother 2
ikr they forgot all about it
can we just all agree the donkey kong country theme song is one of the greatest video game theme songs of all time?
1 To 3
1. The Legend Of Zelda
2. Super Smash Bros
3. Super Mario
zelda should be no 1. It actually tries to reinvent itself with every major installment unlike mario where there has been only 3 truly innovative titles in its existence. Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Bros. All the other installments are rehashed trite; tell me why that is more deserving than Zelda. Sure its iconic and successful but that does not mean its superior
But it is superior. TLOZ is alright and definitely beats Mario in story elements but I can't agree that it is more fun then Mario.
Sunshine was huge too.
Zelda will never pass pokemon as a franchise pokemon has to much variety and the brain washing skills are over 90000
Let's be realistic Mario is #1.... It's the most popular character on Nintendo, everyone knows him. If u ask a random person I'm the street who he is their most likely going to know him, if you do that with Loz their not going to know it.... Mario is obviously #1
3D World. PLAY IT. Talk then.
My top ten Nintendo franchise and my favorite game of each franchise (personal opinion)
10. Pikmin
9. Donkey Kong
8. Animal Crossing (New leaf)
7. Smash Bro's (Brawl)
6. Mother (Earthbound)
5. Mario (Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2)
4. Metroid (Metroid Prime series)
3. Kirby (Kirby Superstar Ultra)
2. LoZ (Majora's Mask)
1. Pokemon (Pokemon Oras)
mario! at number 5. man u r crazy m
Brandomaniac Mario games are fun but this placements are based on the average of ALL Mario games
My favorite Pokemon game is pearl and diamond
Mine is also diamond and pearl
***** I meant new leaf
I love Kirby, but Pokemon and smash are so good too!
Nice list, here's mine
1: Legend of Zelda (sorry Mario)
2: Mario
3: Kirby
4: Metroid
5: Donkey Kong
6: Super Smash Bros
7: Fire Emblem
8: Star Fox
9: Pokémon

7.Kirby
6.Super Smash Bros.
5.Super Mario
4.Animal Crossing
3.Pokemon
2.Metroid
1.Legend of Zelda and Xenoblade
(too good)
MOTHER/EARTHBOUND?
When I bought my first console a year ago, it was just a regular Wii. Everyone asked why I got a Wii.
Well, Mario, that's pretty much it. I'm not a gamer otherwise, I just think Mario games are fun. :)
bit late but you made a good choice
Keedar Walsh Hey, it was cheap.
Natalie1729 shouldve gotten a wii mini....
Natalie1729 you could buy for the Wii Dragon Ball Z budokai tenkaichi 3, it's the best DBZ game ever :)
What I love about nintendo is their franchises are so diverse and you have many different options for what you want to play. Look at this:
Strategy rpg- fire emblem
Action rpg- legend of Zelda
Platformers- donkey kong, super mario, Kirby
On rail shooter- star fox, kid icurus (3ds)
Shooter- splatoon (2016)
Fighter- super smash bros
Racer- mario kart
Puzzle- pikmen
Open world- LoZ (again)
Simulation- tomodachi life...sorta...
Weird mini game shit- Wario ware
Fitness- wii fit
Sports- mario sports spinoffs, wii sports
Plus you have a bunch of other games that just don't fall into categories because they are so unique. The only genres that nintendo don't have games for are more realistic type games, but those are almost always supported by third party.
I also probably missed a few so tell me if I did
I actually agree with this list
Still waitin for that new F-Zero and Metriod game Nintendo.
I say legend of Zelda is number 1
Top 10 Nintendo Franchises
I don't understand how pokemon isn't #2 it's nintendos flagship handheld title (a market that nintendo is winning by a landlide.) And the second biggest game series in the world by sales. It has its own world championship in both video game and card game and has several successful spinoff series. It should be in the number two spot without question
Ikr
Popularity doesn't mean shit.
***** "Populatiry doesnt mean shit, sales dont mean shit. Well then what does?" Ever heard of the word quality?
"FUCK Zelda, its a stupid overrated gay cancer game." It's underrated, first off, and even if it wasn't you're over here throwing a hissy fit like a 5-year-old.
"It doesnt even have the fucking name of the main caracter as title. Its like saying mario is called peach." Why does that bother you, exactly?
***** Well you are considering a large market of those sales/popularity is from a tv show, merchandise and etc. Video games and video games only. [I rate them both the same, I love to play both.]
*****
Umm, "Pokemon" isn't the name of the main character in Pokemon. So by your own logic, Pokemon is a "stupid overrated gay cancer game."
Seriously? Pikmin is an honourable mention? That game deserves at least the top 5, Pikmin is probably one of Nintendo's best series.
My list would have to be:
10. Fire Emblem
9. Pokemon
8. Fire Emblem
7. Metroid
6. Xenoblade
5. Smash Bros.
4. Donkey Kong
3. Pikmin
2 & 1. Mario and Zelda (They are equally tied -- Both are incredible series and I don't think they can compete with each other. I couldn't put one over the other.)
Mario>Pokemon>Zelda
That's my opinion
Btw u put Fire Emblem twice
BenTheBeast55 #Gamer Oh, really? My bad xD
+BlockSquad1000 XD
The Pyro Bros I've honestly never really played Kirby that much. Only one I ever played was Epic Yarn. I might give it a chance in the future though.
Zelda should have been number 1 easy.
No way
Very true and we all new mario was going to be first cause he nearly has every thing with something mario related mixed in there
Lanmater Why not?
Regular Random Person Mario is the most knows video game character in the world almost every person knows who mario is that is probably true with zelda but not in the same way as mario.
Lanmater The games on this list wasn't just listed by popularity wasn't made just by popularity. If it was Nintendo+Catz, Wii Series, and other such would be higher or on the list. It was made by critical acclaim from critics and fans alike (doesn't include popularity), always fun gameplay, and a decent amount of fame. Which is why TC thought in his opinion that Zelda should just be number 1.
The moment i clicked on this video i knew zelda was 2nd and mario is first
VanillaPicklePal lol
VanillaPicklePal Pokemon should be 2nd
1. Pokemon
2. The Legend of Zelda
3. Super Smash Bros
Mr. Awesome that's the most stupid list
It's a good top but mine would be
10) F-Zero
9) Super Smash Bros
8) Pikmin
7) Animal Crossing
6) Metroid
5) Xenoblade
4) MOTHER
3) Fire Emblem
2) Pocket Monsters
1) The Legend of Zelda
Honorable mentions: Hoshi no Kirby, Prof Layton, Ace Attorney, 1080, LovePlus, TWEWY, Bayonetta, SMT and other 3th party exclusives
Fire emblem is so underrated. It's my favourite rpg ever, and that's an achievment, since i usually hate rpgs, especially jrpgs with term based gameplay, and it's still my favourite game ever (awakening specifically).I understand it's spot, but it has better quality than any other game i've played.
Ikr I love the Fire Emblem Franchise and I hope it gets the attention that it deserves :)
don't worry, Fire Emblem is my favorite franchise in Nintendo
The Legend of Zelda is the best nintendo franchise imo. I FUCKING LOVE THAT SERIES SO MUCH!!! IT'S G.O.A.T
Me too,I say it should be #1
FE is # 1 for me
wait animal. crossing made it above FE??
Mr. Jellybean how did it make it at all?
Why does everyone forget about earthbound/mother!!
Because not many people ever had the chance to play any of them. Also the creator refuses to port already existing games to later consoles.
I'm starting to get a little bit ticked when people say the Legend of Zelda is better than Pokémon.
I mean, you can't blame them.....
This is based on quality of games. Not their success. Pokemon would not be near as popular without its own long running TV show and merchandise. As a standalone game, Pokemon is boring as hell and repetitive. The only things that's changed since the 90's is more Pokemon and better graphics (as expected).
Zelda, on the other hand, has a deep, refreshing storyline every game. It brings new mechanics and art styles with it every title. Each game is *always* considered one of the greatest games of the year, some being called the greatest ever made. These are opinions agreed upon by many game reviewers/forums. I can only imagine how much more popular Zelda would be with the same amount of attention Nintendo gives Pokemon.
I wouldn't think so really... if they could pull that much outside video game popularity I would be happy and surprised xD. [Imaging the most quiet anime ever.]
Yeah, doofus, the Sinnoh saga will blow your mind. (Anime is better than the games oddly enough) Kalos is getting better. I will say the Unova anime sucked major balls not because of who was obtained but what was done with them. The games are nigh on perfect, except for stupid Musicals. I hate you Musicals (not movies nor stage plays).
flamewheel101 Done. Pokemon is repetitive.
I don't really play zelda games, but i keep hearing that over half of the time their new game is just a re-skinned ocarina of time.
Not true, each Zelda game plays differently than the other. I know because I've played a bushel of them.
PIKMIN is amazing its always in honarable mentions.
awww no earthbound, it's my favorite game! but it's okay nintendo is such a large franchise not everything is going to make it on.
I think watch mojo hates earthboun
Metaman Gaming that's their loss! hopefully they will give it a chance someday.
Emma Galley yeh someday, earthbound is my favorite game too
Metaman Gaming #Franchises, not single games
Thanks for being the only mature one on here. And you like Marina and the Diamonds! You are cool.
Random question, Does anyone remember the Donkey Kong animated TV series? LOL
Thou shalt not speak of it! Lol
IF YOU WANNA BE GOOD, YOU GOTTA BE BAD!!!
(The musicals were the best part)
I'M GONNA BE A STAR! I'M GONNA BE ADMIRED LIKE JAMES DEAN OR MR. BEAN!
