But aren't they both Megami Tensei? Like Compilation of FFVII and Crystal Chronicles are both FF.
Final Fantasy can be viewed as an umbrella term, there are the mainline games Final Fantsay I-XV, then the Chrystal Chronicles offshoots and Compilations of FFVII, etc etc. All fall under the Final Fantasy umbrella.
MegaTen is the umbrella term for games that fall under the series such as SMT mainline, Devil Survivor, Persona, etc etc. In the NA releases many of the games that fall under MegaTen have SMT in their titles, like the NA release of P3 and P4 were fully titled: Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3/4. Persona 5 doesn't have the SMT in it's title, but at this point Persona is the most popular spin off of the MegaTen series.
Surprised that Tales got more votes than Persona.
Everything else is normal more or less.
Dude, Tales of is huge in Japan. I'm more surprised that SMT barely beat Persona. I mean come on, how long did it take for them to put out SMT4.
The real news is SaGa being higher than KH
Yeah, this is surprising as well, I can't even think of the last time when SaGa was relevant. Maybe that Vita game got some people excited.
