Five & Dime 2007: Wide Angle Lens (Ten Year Pix)

It's still hard for me to believe I've been doing this for ten years... but I still get a big kick out of seeing the love some of these games have acquired. (Intentional pun - my apologies.)

These graphs cover 2007 (top bar) through 1999 (bottom bar). The bar is the percentage of players reporting who played the game 5+ times in the given year. The games here first appeared on the first Five & Dime list in 1998, though many of them were released before that.
