Your alliance based on your collection

[psychic1]

I want to know what all of your console manufacturer alliances are! So based on your collection post the percentage of games devoted to a particular company.

Just to clarify, say if you have 100 games in your collection and 50 are for the Gamecube, 20 are for the DS and 30 for the PS2 you'd be 70% Nintendo and 30% Sony. K?

Oh and personally I considered my PC games as being an ally with Microsoft.

I was really surprised when I figured out mine so I made a topic. Here's my alliance, now how about you?

Nintendo = 35%
Sega = 22%
Microsoft = 20%
Sony = 19%
Atari = 4%

[Nebagram]

844 games. (These are thusly rough figures so don't expect them to add up to 100)

1.5% 3DO
3% Atari
1.2% Bandai
1.2% Mattel
9.9% Microsoft
1.4% NEC
29% Nintendo
22.5% Sega
1.8% SNK
29% Sony
0.5% Tiger

[smork]

I'm pretty sure i'm allied with the game.com.

Seriously, can't count 'coz I ain't at home, but it's probably SNK or Sega. Leaning towards Sega.

[le geek]

814 games

Atari 37.6%
Coleco 2.6%
Commodore 14%
Microsoft 2%
NEC 4.9%
Nintendo 14.9%
Sega 8.6%
SNK 2.7%
Sony 11.7%
Vectrex 1%

So Atari, Nintendo, Commodore then Sony...

Cheers,
Ben

[kaedesdisciple]

Man I feel like a lightweight compared to you guys:

268 Games, and these percentages are exact (thanks Excel!)

Nintendo 31.72
Atari 19.03
Sony 16.42
SNK 10.45
Microsoft 10.07
Coleco 6.72
Sega 5.60

-Joe

[All Things Sega]

Way to many games to count, have to look up the excel sheet at home. But my estimate is:

Sega 40%
Nintendo 30%
Sony 20%
Atari 9.7%
Tiger Game.com .3%

[joshnickerson]

Oh, this should be a shocker to anyone that actually knows me...

Nintendo 99%
Sega 1%

I'm working on expanding my Saturn collection soon, so eventually it should be more like 98%/2% ;)

[NE146]

Dunno.. I bought for all my consoles equally. So when it was SNES/TG16/Genesis time, whatever good game came out for whichever one, that's the one I got. There are some difference in the numbers naturally but it's not by any preference. Zero alliances here :)

Oh, and I have zero idea how many games I got. It'd be impossible for me to count since they're spread all over 2 or 3 locations :(

[Gandhara]

Out of 3850 total games (spanning several systems)

Commodore 39% 1509 total games!!! :)

Nintendo 26% 998 total games

Microsoft 10% 368 total games

Atari 9% 330 total games

Sega 6% 237 total games

Acorn 5% 198 total games

NEC 1.9% 75 total games

Sinclair 1.7% 66 total games

Apple 1% 34 total games

Magnavox 1% 34 total games

SNK 0.13% 5 total games

Bandai 0.06% 2 total games

[ecresto]

dont know how to figure out the percents but i have roughly 845 games & systems . heres the breakdown :

32 unique game systems
149 sega games
13 atari games
304 nintendo games
205 sony games
11 nec games
131 microsoft games

took me a good half hour to figure this out .

[vectrexer]

90% GCE (Vectrex, watch, calc)
7% Nintendo 64
2% XBox (older version)
.5% Virtual Boy
.5% Tempest Uprights (2)

[Sparkster]

I have about
66% Nintendo
12% Atari
16% Sega
3% Intellivision
3% Sony

[Pantechnicon]

Everything here is approximate, but the percentages are pretty close even if I'm off (as I suspect) by a total number of games:

Atari 57% ~ 400
Sega 18% ~ 126
Intellivision 10% ~ 70
Nintendo 6% ~ 42
Coleco 5% ~ 35
Odyssey 3% ~ 25
Tiger 1% ~ 7
Vectrex < 1% ~ 2

[anagrama]

Of the 1318 games in my VGR collection list:

Sega - 92.0% (1212)
Atari - 3.79% (50)
Nintendo - 3.49% (46)
MB [Vectrex] - 0.30% (4)
NEC - 0.15% (2)
Amstrad - 0.15% (2)
Sony - 0.07% (1)
Fairchild - 0.07% (1)

[mailman187666]

out of about 952 games, here is greatest to least

Nintendo (nes,snes, N64...ect.) = 286
sega (genesis, dreamcast, sega cd...ect.) = 211
Atari (2600, 7800, jaguar) = 168
sony (PS1,2,3,PSP) = 165
Microsoft (xbox 1, 360) = 38
3DO = 32
Intelivision = 27
neo-geo (MVS, NGPC) = 13
TI99 = 8
TG-16 = 4

all these numbers really mean is price and availability in my area. I prefer collecting sega, I prefer playing sony, but I love all of my systems (except the TI99, I wanna trade or sell). I have so many for nintendo because NES games are all over the place so that just happens to be what I end up finding and buying.

[CosmicMonkey]

But what about who makes the game in the first place?

Say for example you have 10 Megadrive games and 10 Gamecube games. You'd see this as 50% MD and 50% GC. But what if those 10 GC games consist of Billy Hatcher, Sonic Adventure DX, Sonic Heroes, Super Monkey Ball, F-Zero GX etc. Basically 10 games coded by Sega (and yes, I blatantly couldn't think of 10 Sega GC games LOL. D'oh).

Surely this'd make you a 100% Sega fan?

Just like I'm sure many PStwo owners couldn't give a toss about Sony, but absolutely love the Cave and SNK conversions.

[AlanD]

5011 games counting demos

Looks like Nintendo and Sega in the lead with Atari third and everything else pretty distant.


Nintendo: 1747 (34.86)

[fergojisan]

This is a cool thread.

Here's mine, out of approximately 1050 games:

Atari - 57%
Nintendo - 33%
Sega - 7%
TG-16 - 3%

I have an Intellivision w/about 20 games, but I'm selling that.

[Garry Silljo]

I believe these numbers to be fairly accurate

686 games.

Nintendo 64%
Sega 31%
MicroSoft 5%

[Push Upstairs]

I'm pretty sure my collection would have SEGA with the highest % and 2nd going to Microsoft.

[Spartacus]

Atari 1%
Nintendo 20%
Sega 20%
Microsoft 20%
Sony 39%

[DefaultGen]

.....

[cyberfluxor]

Out of the around 900 games I owned a few months ago:
Atari - 6.0%
Microsoft - 0.1%
Nintendo - 44.0%
Sega - 35.4%
Shin Nihon Kikaku - 0.6%
Sony -&nbsp;13.6%

I've gotten about 30 more games since the last update so there's a 3.33% margin of error overall. I'm a Nintendo fanboy :( :(

Actually, it's just Nintendo games pop up the most, then Sega and Atari. Sony is out there along with Microsoft but not with the selection and pricing I'm willing to pay too often. If you throw PC games into the list then it makes a good 100 game dent but I haven't kept too much track of them.

[DragonMaster Sam]

Total Games: 228

Nintendo: 165 (72.3%)
Sony: 61 (26.8%)
Sega: 1


I'll do by company and system later.

[Jumpman Jr.]

It would take too much time to go through exact counts (although, I do need to an exact one, one of these days), but here are my rough estimates:

Total games: 2,400

Nintendo games: 1,500
Sega games - 450
Other (Channel F, Intellivision, Atari's, 3D0, etc..) - 350

So Nintendo is my highest at about 62%

[swlovinist]

Well, I had way too much fun with this one. Overall I did a quick but somewhat accurate count of all of my games that were not stored. The total not including demos, pack ins, or floppy disks is 5,005, alot more than I thought I had. With floppy disks I am probably around 5500 or so. Here is the breakdown:

Gamecube-50
N64-300
Snes-401
Odyssey 2-55
Arcadia 2001-14
Microvision-5
Aquarius-4
Astrocade-25
Nuon-8

Some of the Main Companies break down like this

Nintendo 33%
Sega 30%
Atari 10%
Sony 6%
Xbox 2%
Other 19%

[Keir]

It's been a long time since I've really kept track of my collection but, while the quantities may have changed, I imagine these percentages are close enough:

31% Atari
31% Commodore
10% Sega
6% Sony
6% Coleco
5% Nintendo
3% Mattel

I figure 3% is a good cutoff point, so we'll just call the rest (NEC, TI, etc.) "Other".

[Shrooin]

3 Main Powers

Atari = 49.66% (73 Games)
Nintendo = 21.77% (32 Games)
Sega = 25.85% (38 Games)

Others

Amiga = 0.68% (1 Games)
Philips = 2.04% (3 Games)

[ubikuberalles]

Atari: 80% ~ 231
Sega: 8% ~ 24
Nintendo: 5% ~ 14
Sony: 4% ~ 11
Intellivision: 2% ~ 4
Commodore: 1% ~ 3

[cyberfluxor]

Awww, I forgot I had a few Amiga games floating around. They'd end up being under 1% of what I have but they're there. I might also be missing a few other systems.

[Steven]

Er, it's pretty simple for me, lol

NES - 130 ish
SNES - 600 plus games
Saturn - 180 ish
Dreamcast -40 ish

I own almost 1,000 games, and over about 75% of my collection points to Nintendo :P

[j_factor]

Out of 907 games...

43.2% Sega
27.2% Nintendo
11.0% Sony
6.1% NEC (or should I say TTI...)
4.4% Microsoft
2.4% Coleco
2.1% Atari
1.7% SNK
1.1% Nokia
0.6% Tiger

[bangtango]

Something like that, hope it equals 100%. I shuffled those numbers so much I can't tell anymore.

Sega: 25%
Nintendo: 25%
Microsoft: 20%
Sony: 15%
Atari: 8%
CD-i: 3%
3DO: 2%
Tiger: 2%

[wallydawg]

Sega: 41.6%
Nintendo: 38.7%
Sony: 12.9%
3DO: 3.7%
PC: 1.2%
Microsoft: 0.07%
Atari: 0.03%

[robotriot]

I currently don't have the most recent numbers of my collection, but these should still roughly represent the distribution.

Commodore 36.6%
Sega 18.7%
Sony 12.8%
Atari 10.2%
Nintendo 8.5%
Microsoft 5.6%
NEC 3.5%
MB 2.7%
Interton 0.8%

NEC - 43 (1.1%)
3DO - 31 (0.8%)
SNK - 21 (0.5%)
PC - 96 (2.5%)
Other - 140 (0.3%)
Arcades - 12 (100% awesome)

[Mark III]

Sega & Sony, followed by Nintendo. Lots of Playstation, Genesis, Master System and Dreamcast stuff. Only a handful of NES & SNES. If it wasn't for the piles of quality GBA titles, Nintendo wouldn't even be a contender for my gaming dollar.

[hydr0x]

can't believe I'm actually replying to a thread, you did something right psychic ;)

31,73% PC
29,87% Sega
29,78% Nintendo
5,40% Sony
2,84% Handhelds (dominated by Nintendo)
0,27% Microsoft
0,09% Atari
0,09% MB

[Hawksmoor]

My allegiance is to good games, regardless of publisher, developer, or platform. That's not say I don't have some favorites, but I can say definitely that one system and or developer hasn't been so great in my view as to overshadow all the rest.

I could also forsee a situation in which the breakdown of one's collection by publisher would seem to indicate a preference when in fact it was purely coincidental. Do most of you have a definitive system and or developer preference or are you more like me and just buy/collect what you think is quality?

[nebrazca78]

having roughly 4445 games, and using the breakdown as follows, highest percentages are:

atari = 8.3%
sony = 18.9%
sega = 25.6%
nintendo = 36.7%
meaning 10.5% of my stuff is not produced by these big 4 :)

number per system =
75 - 3do

[Iron Draggon]

this is just a rough estimate, but here's mine:

Sega 25%
Nintendo 20%
Sony 20%
3DO 10%
Atari 10%
PC 15%

the % of Sega games is prolly much higher and the rest are prolly much lower

I've always known that I was a Sega loyalist more than anything else, but really we should be doing this by each individual game, not just by each individual system... Sega has made alot of games for alot of other systems now, but they really didn't make that many games for their own systems compared to other companies... so if you count all your Sega games made for your Nintendo systems as Nintendo games, just because they were made for a Nintendo system, then you really aren't giving Sega all the credit that they deserve to get for those games... it would be like counting all your Nintendo exclusives as Sega exclusives... think about it... so this is very fuzzy math...
