Oyvoyvoyv - I don't think the list in Wikipedia even accounts for the Wii series. But I like your list better cuz Final Fantasy is higher!

^^ Final Fantasy actually isn't higher. Oyvoyvoy counted #3 twice accidentally. And yeah, Wiki doesn't count for the Wii series (it should).

 

 Yeah, my list isn't that accurate. The first time I made it I somehow put Zelda 6M too high.

 

I can't find the fishy soures, so that might just be bad memory from my side (there was a thread much alike this one some time ago).

 

But take NFS. http://news.ea.com/portal/site/ea/index.jsp?ndmViewId=news_view&ndmConfigId=1012492&newsId=20090130005163&newsLang=en. It says close to 100M sold. That could be 80M, couldn't it?

 

Series like The Sims are also heavily mis-tracked by this site, and all franchises that have a PC game are a bit undertracked here (because we don't track PC games).

 

Edit:

Oh, and my list is outdated by 1-2 months.
