well, 360 games weren't bundled with almost every console, controller and accessory. im not trying to bash wii's success in software sales but this was pretty much expected

NPD doesn't count Wii Sports. As for Wii Play, I don't buy the arguement that the game sells only because (or mainly because) the controller. If people just wanted a controller, they'd just buy a controller. People are obviously getting incentive to spend the extra 10 bucks to buy the game.

I worked for a time at the Australian version of GameStop and 'upselling' people to the WiiPlay pack was a no-brainer, you told them that it was a controller + a game for $10 more than just a controller. The vast, vast majority of Wii buyers were parents buying for young kids and themselves and didn't know squat other than what they saw on TV, we LOVED Wii buyers :D
