Plus I tend not to count handhelds cuz their sales are vastly superior to console sales only bucuz they are so much cheaper. They instantly become big hitters if they have a good game. Unless you are the PSP of course...

It is not the top selling game because of its different versions. Rarely do people get more than one - look at Pokemon Yellow, it alone did over 14 million.
Also, handheld games are not vastly superior to console sales. It only looks that way because Nintendo has had a monopoly on its software, and they've had a larger handheld market than their home consoles. Take a look at the Wii, I bet we'll be seeing games pulling off similar numbers. Anyway, I've gone totally off topic, sorry about that.
