After 20 years, GoldenEye is still king with Street Fighter II not far behind.
In the last decade (2002-2012) the best selling game goes to Metroid Prime on the GameCube at 2.82 million sold worldwide. Would've been interesting to see what Metroid would've done on the N64, my guess is 3-4 million ww.
