Nintendogs is a beast! But still a long way of from the monster that was Pokemon Red/Green/Blue. Still the best selling game if you take away bundled games. Bundled games excluded the top 5 would look like this:

1. Pokemon Red / Green / Blue
2. Pokemon Gold / Silver
3. Super Mario Land
4. Super Mario Bros 3
5. Nintendogs

Super Mario Land "I believe" was bundled with the Gameboy. Super Mario Brothers 3 was bundled with the NES very late in it's life.

^^ this thread is about the total sales of all games not just one week

Yep. Same deal even so.


Super Mario Brothers isn't on that list? I find that highly suspect... did the NES not reach scandanavia do to constant Viking raids? No Pokemon fever in Scandanavia?

 If you're talking older lists, both Pokemon and Mario raided worse than vikings ever did! I thought this was about the current gen... I think the most sold game in history in Norway is The Sims followed by one of the numerous Megaman titles.

Kasz216, I don't know about other territories but Super Mario Land was never bundled with the GB in Europe. Tetris came bundled with the GB. Atleast that's how I remember it.

Didn't knew Super Mario Bros 3 was ever bundled as a free pack-in game. If those NES bundles included the price of SMB3 it counts as a separate sale IMO.

 

Edit: and even if SMB3 was bundled, if we take away the bundled ones. I can still see it end in that top 5. Just pitty we can't track those numbers down or can we?

I think NSMB, and Wii Play, and Maybe, Pearl and Diamond have a "shot" to make nintendo own the top 12.

Nintendo owns the 10+ million club.

I wonder wich new IP can enter that select club. My money is on Wii Play and Wii Fit.

And from the known IP's in the top 20, I think only Mario has what it takes to sell over 10 million again with SMG and SSBB will do similar numbers. GT has gone multi and therefor stands no chance. And the GT series has lost alot of ground and userbase. I see GT5 en finish just outside the future top 30.


And who would have thought, Mysims is a 1 million seller.

 You mean GTA right, not GT.

Correct, Tetris was bundled with the Game Boy at launch, not Super Mario Land.

With the NES, by the early 1990s, there were three packages available in North America, as the Action Set, Deluxe Set, and Power Sets were replaced. One was the Basic Set, which was the console and two controllers only, which sold for around $79-$89. The second was the Challenge Set, which was the console, two controllers, and SMB3, which sold for around $99-$119. The third was the Sports Set, which included the console, four controllers, the wireless multitap, and Super Spike/World Cup. That one was around $159-$179 IIRC.

Not 100% sure on the prices ... that was nearly 20 years ago, but SMB3 was part of a bundle that was readily available for at least 2-3 years, and it was in a bundle where it could not be considered a "free pack-in," since there was a gameless control deck along side it that was usually $20-30 cheaper.

@ Shams

Way to try to derail this thread from Nintendo Praise to Sony Hate.

On Topic:

Wii Fit, SSBB, SMG, MKWii All will make 10 mil on Wii, I would bet one of the 3 will make 15 mil. (wii play will as long as they keep the controller with it)

When it come to DS games all I can say is OMG, will the DS set the record for the most 10 mil + sellers? Does it already?

BT, Nintendogs, NSMB, Pokemon, ?

Mario Kart will eventually, so will Animal Crossing and BT2
