Wii Play is #1 because it gets ranked in the full-price sales charts and it's obvious that no one is paying full-price for the game but rather the controller.
Cooking Mama and BBA are on there because they're charging $50 for a Wii version that is essentially the same (or worse) than the DS version that was released at $20.
The rest are pretty much just plain bad (or underwhelming considering the hype ala PES). |
I've never heard of these...full-price sales charts...
Are you suggesting that $30 Wii games should not be listed on the charts?
Or $20 games?
$10 games can not be listed on the charts?
I think Wii Play's plenty overrated, but let's be honest...it sells a ton because it's TEN DOLLARS. And it's packaged with a Wiimote, which is nice because most people need another Wiimote. Don't think of it as a $50 game...but ALSO don't think of it as "people are just buying it for the Wiimote."
That's bullcrap, if they were buying it JUST for the controller, they'd BUY A CONTROLLER. They're paying $10 extra, they're paying 10 specific dollars for Wii Play. Which makes it a $10 game. It's super cheap, that's why it sells well, and you can keep that in the back of your mind when you see it sell so much. It doesn't make it better, it's just super cheap that's all. You know it, I know it, Nintendo knows it. That doesn't mean it doesn't belong on the "full-price sales charts" though. If it sells on the shelves, we want to know. |
They have the all-price charts and the full-price charts (Chart Track is a little odd that way). I think it's a way to filter out bargin bin/severely discounted games but it also tends to hit the Touch Generations DS games sometimes too so it's a little odd.
