No PS3 game propagated and popularized a whole genre the way Wii Sports and Wii Fit did.

No PS3 game was bundled with every single console like Wii Sports, either.

It stands to reason that more people would play the game if it came free with the console, but that's like giving a jar of marmite/vegimite away free with jars of nutella then saying Ferrero populrized marmite/vegimite.

To be accurate, Nintendo made sports games accessible to a wider audience, an aucience that wouldnt have otherwise tried it, the real question is, how popular would the game have been, had it been sold at full retail and not bundled for free.

Wii Fit was sold at retail, that did incredibly well.

It was also heavily bundled in EU and the US, too.
