Six fiscal years of major Nintendo published hits for Wii in one chart - everything over 1m is an official shipment figure, everything under 1m is an estimate. The Mario Galaxy 1 estimates for the year to March 2011 / March 2010 are designed to mesh with the stated total given by Nintendo through March 2012 after the game jumped back up when sold at $20 for the year.

Mario Kart Wii has an outside shot at reaching 40m units - pretty amazing for a game that didn't have tens of millions of bundles like Wii Sports. NSMB Wii is also pretty likely to reach well over 30m, with most of those units also non-bundled.
