Now that he's deleted it all, this gif makes almost no sense! :D

Mother/Earthbound Cause I love it, and it's a very deep game.

Note that they don't have to be Nintendo franchises, that was just coincidental, they can be any game/series.

Castlevania, Devil May Cry, Resident Evil and that's all I nominate.
They're pretty good franchises.

F Zero due to the fact that the series completely revolutionized the racing genre when first released and has influenced so many other series.
Metal Gear, because it's Metal Gear. 'Nuff said.
Earthworm Jim just due to the amazing humor and wackiness it had.
Harvest Moon. Who thought a game series about about farming/dating would become so famous or last so long?

The plan currently is to accept nominations until Midnight of next Tuesday (CST) and then finish up the bracket by Wednesday morning, and host the matches for 5 days a piece.

First, we must nominate our franchises! If you have any franchise that you think deserves to be placed alongside the legends, nominate it below with a quick reason (Just a quick sentence or two), once the nominations are all in order, the battle will begin!
Metal Slug 3 aka the king of shooters, the 3 first games of this franchise are already legendary.
ps: i'm joking, but they are very good^^

Resident Evil. I won't lie, I'm a huge fan of the series. Better reason would be that it's a ridiculously well selling franchise with more entries in the series, even outside of gaming, to be count. It is considered one of the forefathers of survival horror, an entire genre, and have the best selling videogame to movie adaptation series out of all other games (no matter how terrible it is).
Silent Hill. Psychological horror at its finest, these games have made kids cry and have nightmares for years now and while the future of the franchise is unstable, I still consider it one of the best franchises out there.
Final Fantasy. Okay, the recent entries might not have been the best games out there but what other franchise can say they literally begun as the final opportunity of a company to survive and have since sold millions and continued the series with ridiculous numbers.
Disgaea. The allmighty ruler of all SRPGs (at least in my mind) with it's absolutely ridiculous amount of content in each game and the king of grinding. If you have felt the agony of grinding in any RPG, quit your bitching and go and try to beat the level 9999 Overlord Baal with his clone minions all standing at the insane level of 9999 and having more HP and stat numbers the screen would be able to show.
I'm certain that if Cody posts in this thread he'll have SF on his list so I can happily leave it out of mine :)

Check that, I already edited my earlier post and removed Final Fantasy and replaced it with Metal Gear since Mass Distraction got distracted and posted FF after I did. That's right, right?
