You don't have to buy a Motorstorm bundle, Wii Sports is bundled with every Wii in Europe and the US, but still the game performed remarkably on the Japanese market. Wii Sports bundles paved the way for Wii Play's success. |
Okay then. Let's work with Wii Play. Just like motorstorm, you don't need to buy wiiplay with a controller. You don't even need to buy a wiimote to play wii games since it comes with one!
Oddly enough you don't see Nintendo posting press releases all over the place about the multi-million seller that is wiiplay.
Reason being, that while they do count as sales and should. It's silly to celebrate them and post news articles on them.
The only real consolation is that GT5 will eventually blow out motorstorm. It's sad a number of other better racers won't however due to Motorstorms bundling.
