In 2017, the best selling game of year was Dragon Quest XI with around 3 million copies between the PS4 and 3DS versions.

Maybe this is a best-selling Nintendo chart. Or best-selling game on a single console. But I agree; if you can't count PS4 + 3DS, then it's also not fair to count both Utra Sun & Ultra Moon together. Worth pointing out that the "Ultra" games were pretty much re-releases of the games from the year before.
Pretty amazing that Red/Green managed to win two years in a row, though.
