I'm finding it very hard to see where all the third party sales are coming from, especially in America. Unless they are omitting Wii-sports and Wii-play games or counting Mario & Sonic as third party, something is very wrong.

Mario and sonic is third party, there is no discussion possible.

Really? Including Nintendo's biggest mascot makes the game virtually first party, and I thought that Nintendo and Sega both published it.

 

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (マリオ&ソニック AT 北京オリンピック, Mario ando Sonikku atto Pekin Orinpikku^?, lit. "Mario & Sonic at the Beijing Olympics") is a sports game developed and published by Sega for North America and Europe and published by Nintendo for Japan.

Yes and in Nintendo's graph for 1st parties in Japan it is included as 1st party while for europe and america it's listed as 3rd party.  It's a 3rd party game in America and Europe where most of the sales were (3.5 million of 4 million), but i like how we have to come up with all these technicalities to somehow deduce that 3rd party games don't sell on Wii.

 Why don't you subtract Wii play and Link's Crossbow training since that's what most fanboys do.
