I got about 62% 1st party when I counted Wiiplay and Wiisports.

Edit: Its 63%. More if I exclude Mario+Sonic @ Olympics because it mostly sold on the fact it had Mario in it.

Wii Play is already accounted for.  That 50 million figured doesn't include Wii Sports.

 

It is generally accepted practice (here) to count bundled games as sold too.

Wiisports was sold in Japan remember?

You have a lot of games that come bundled, Forza 2- Viva pinata - MGS4 - GTAIV - Uncharted - Heavenly sword etc. To try and seperate bundled from unbundled would be impossible. So as a generally accepted practice they have to be counted amongst all games sold.

That is why Wii Sports has to be included.
