Here is VGC numbers for top tens of every console:

Wii:
1. Wii Sports - 3.29 mil
2. Wii Fit - 2.81 mil
3. Wii Play - 2.57 mil
4. MK:Wii - 1.83 mil
5. Brawl - 1.81 mil
6. Mario Party 8 - 1.34 mil
7. Super Mario Galaxy - 990k
8. Wario Ware - 710k
9. Twilight Princess - 590k
10. Super Paper Mario - 580k

Not a single 3rd party broke the top 10 for the Wii in Japan...  I hope that changes next year.  You take out 1st party publishers and the lists are much closer.

That'll be pretty tough if Nintendo continues to release games. The bar will only be raised higher (Wii Sports Resort should make top 5). MH is the only game I see with a chance.

Still, it's important to remember how the top 10 DS games looks in Japan:

  1. Pocket Monsters Diamond / Pearl
  2. New Super Mario Bros.
  3. Brain Age 2: More Training in Minutes a Day
  4. Animal Crossing: Wild World
  5. Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day
  6. Mario Kart DS
  7. English Training for Adults
  8. Pocket Monsters Platinum
  9. Mario Party DS
  10. Nintendogs

Nintendo has been dominating all of Japan, so it can't be helped. If not for MHF, the entire top 17 selling games of this gen in Japan would be in Nintendo's control.
