New Super Mario Bros. Wii.

it got a 7

Mario Kart Wii got a 6 and it outsold all games mentioned in the OP... combined. What this shows is that critics get overruled by gamers and in the end that's what really matters: pleasing gamers, not reviewers.

just because something sells doesn't necessarily mean its quality

Absolutely correct. However, the OP's method of a 90+ Metacritic isn't any better as an indicator to quality. This is taking the word of approximately 60 game players over the opinions of many more. Not to mention critical reviews in gaming are a joke compared to other fields like books, movies, and music. If there were more credibility in the review system, they may have some weight, however without it, I'd say sales are actually a better indication if we have nothing else to go on.
