What about Minesweeper?

 

Now don't start. That's a stupid comparison and you know it. How many people have been at best buy, saw mine sweeper and said "Damn, I gotta get one of these PCs"?

People will complain, hem and haw, but wii sports has been on the Oscars, The nightly news, sitcoms, commercials, magazines, it's in bars, night clubs, theme parks, all the hell over the place. Fanboys even argue that people only buy wii for wiisports and then never play their wii again, but when it comes time to give credit to wii sports it's just a demo and people aren't buying their wii's for that crap. People see wii sports and are blown away by it, and must have it, then go out and buy a wii. I won't defend wiiplay because that is a controller with a game, but wii sports is the reason for the wii's success and it deserves every bit of credit that it gets.

 

That doesn't really mean anything. You can't just create arbitrary conditions. If you start doing that, then a number of games have sold far more than Wii Sports.

Tetris - Across all platforms, I'm sure it's well ahead of Wii Sports.

As Erik said, Pokemon RGB, Yellow, and Fire Red/Leaf Green with over 55 million.

Free Cell, Chip's Challenge, Minesweeper, Pinball and basically every other game that's ever been a part of Windows Entertainment Pack.

Pong and various remakes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You want to get me some sales figures on Minesweeper? Or pong? No? Then Wiisports will be the best selling game on record.
