Why do you count Wii Sports?

ioi,

I don't understand what you mean, are you saying that xbox 360 pack-in games are counted in the weekly totals? If so how does the site know what percentage of 360s being sold has which particular pack-in game? For example Call of Duty 3 is a pack-in game with some of the newer 360s, are those numbers being added to the numbers that npd has (they aren't counting pack-in games in their numbers hence why Wii Sports isn't counted in their numbers).

It just seems odd that a game that is included with a console and doesn't bring in any additional revenue is counted against games that cost $40,$50,$60 and above.

If the Wii had come with 10 different pack-in games would the site claim that the wii's total software sales to date in the U.S. have surpassed the total software sales to date of the Xbox 360?

Ok, ioi. I agree with them on this.

If you wanna count a free game, as a sale, you should count every game in Wii sports individually, because it's 5 games, in 1! So you should actually count each game sepratly. So that means the Wii has already sold over 10million games!

Basically, unless you can buy the game in a box, I dont think it should be counted on VGcharts.
