 Wii sports by a lot

I cant even tell if this is sarcasm... or serious.
But I'm kinda hopeing its the first.

Theres like 50 other games atleast, that are a 100 times more likely to be viewed as a "game of the decade" than that.
Its even a much more weird pick than my own FFXI :)

In terms of quality of enjoyment, and how long you played it.
Do you really think Wii Sports is the defineing game, the best thing of the decade?

I think it's a fair pick even if it wouldn't be my own; Wii Sports was a cultural phenomenon, and while simplistic (or rather because of it) fantastic fun when played in a social context. There was something magic about playing it with my non-gamer parents and them sharing in the hobby I was so passionate about for the first time.
