Heavyweight Franchises Measured

Posted by Zonk on from the mario's-a-little-tubby dept.

Next Generation has a look at which of the gaming franchises are the weightiest by measuring game sales for current and next-gen systems. From the article: "A new graphic shows the top-sellers across all current major platforms, with Mario, Madden and GTA leading the pack. The list - based on NPD North America data - shows Mario at number one followed by Madden and then GTA. Star Wars is the top entertainment licence at number four followed by Tony Hawk."

    I didn't notice until I saw that Halo was one solid band of color. I expect that at least GTA would beat Mario if not for that.
