I think we should include bundles it sold what it sold imo.

I'm not sure what you mean. Everybody here is including bundles in everything. If you're talking about my post, I just used the "without bundles" to see how we could expect them to fare without bundles. How much the bundles will do, and how long they will last, is currently unknown, so we can't really speculate with them as easily. 

no i meant it in a different way.

So by your logics, a game that will end up selling around 30 million units, with let's even say 500 000 bundles sold, shoudn't be in any top selling games list? So if I understand correctly MKWii is from now un disqualified and therefore gt5 sold more units than MKWii because hey...it's not bundled.

Re-read the OP. Mario Kart Wii WILL (Could) end up with 30 Million units sold. But it will still have had an official bundle to help reach that mark.

This thread isn't about the best selling game overall... It's about the best selling game that hasn't had a bundle.

Eh guys MW2 sold more than Nintendogs and probably Mario Kart Wii. And it was never bundled. Amazing.



Yeah but these kinds of bundles doesn't count! They are limited and people buy them for the game.

I bought the Mario kart Wii bundle For the Wii Wheel. I also pre-ordered Donkey Kong Country returns so I can get that nice banana pouch.

Therefore those two games are discounted, and modern warfare 2 still counts because I bought the more expensive Xbox360 model (rather than the regular one which was what, a 100$ cheaper?), for the game itself.

I'm curious to know what you think is the best selling game that hasn't had a bundle.



Think for yourself, question authority

Pokemon Red/Blue/Green, as far as I know. I'm pretty sure it was never actually bundled officially with the GameBoy.

If it WAS bundled... Then the title falls to Wii Play as again, as far as I know it has never had an official Wii bundle.

MKWii bundle is only a LIMITED edition one to celebrate 25th years of Super Mario Bros. Even then such a bundle shouldn't take away its merit in sales numbers. Many other games have been bundled for a limited time as well during their launch period only in this case the bundle is a few years afterwards. Heck the bundle is only now only available in EMEAA.

So? It's still a hardware bundle from Nintendo.

If you're having a go at me for sticking to the rules set in the OP then you are the one who is filled with "fail". If you don't like the rules set up by the OP... Go make your own thread which includes bundles. Limited or not. In which case... Mario Kart Wii still wont be the winner.

Stop crying about it.
