And to those that are saying bundles games doesn't count,Please show us how much those games sold without being bundled.

Well, that's easy.

1.) Wii Sports - It's the game that sold the Wii. It was never bundled in Japan and sold over 3m copies there, so only a complete and utter moron would argue that Wii Sports wouldn't have sold 10m copies as a standalone game.
2.) Mario Kart Wii - Crossed 10m before it got bundled.
3.) Wii Sports Resort - Crossed 10m before it got bundled.
4.) Wii Play - Was never bundled with the console as far as I recall.
5.) New Super Mario Bros. Wii - Crossed 10m before it got bundled.
6.) Wii Fit - Crossed 10m before it got bundled.
7.) Wii Fit Plus - Crossed 10m before it got bundled.
8.) Super Smash Bros. Brawl - Was never bundled with the console as far as I recall.
9.) Super Mario Galaxy - Was never bundled with the console as far as I recall.
10.) Just Dance 3 - Was never bundled with the console as far as I recall.

So it can be safely concluded that those who scream "Bundles!" either suffer from serious butthurt or lack the knowledge to discuss the topic. Of course, butthurt doesn't rule out ignorance or stupidity; these things aren't mutually exclusive.

The argument remains stupid anyway, because if all those game sales came from hardware-bundles why didn't the Wii sell like over 200m units ? Maybe that's a bit simple thinking, but it is what it boils down to. Continuing this simple logic, only 20m (at most) bundles that were not the regular Wii Sports bundle, were sold.

As a side-note I think Wii Sports would have been the best selling game of all-time regardless. People bought Wii Sports as you say, the Wii itself was lucky enough to tag along.
