zelda gets too much praise just for being zelda.
Xenoblade should take this one.
Sadly I doubt sales indicate this poles positions.

Of course the sales don't indicate the pole positions :P

 

Not only was Xenoblade a new IP on a dying system with no promotion whatsoever, it also had a limited print run with right at or just under 1mil copies made.  And it was exclusive to GameStop.  That the game sits right at or just under 1mil is kind if a miracle :P

Meanwhile Zelda is Zelda, probably would have done over 5mil if not for the Wii gen coming to an end the next year and limiting the number of shipped copies.
