Minecraft can never be considered for the game with the most sold units since it was released on a ton of units. If wii sports was released on mobile or other consoles it would have sold a ton more.

Wii Sports can never be considered as the game with the most sales because it was bundled with nearly every Wii. It wouldn't have sold close to 80 million had it not been bundled.

Wii sports wouldn't have sold any notable amount on mobile. Neither would it on PS or Xbox. Just look at PS Move sports and kinect sports. They weren't bundled and they didn't sell close to Wii sports.

 

also how would Wii sports work on mobile?

 

PS: I'm not saying that Wii Sports shouldn't be considered as the 2nd bestselling game of all time, but that following YOUR logic, it shouldn't.

I added weekly PC numbers and weekly console numbers. The console numbers are VGC numbers though.

Yeah that's what I'm saying. PSN and XBL numbers are missing (digital console). Since it's always #1 on PSN each month and probably XBL too I think it's safe to assume that the weekly baseline is considerably higher than 210k. Maybe 300k is more accurate.


But that becomes too much guesswork for me. But I suppose 300k would be closer yes, so 15 million a year then

so it'll outsell Wii Sports in two years.

But it will get a holiday boost as well, of course. So probably closer to 18m or so.

In all honesty so was super mario bros for the nes and Mairo kart wii which sold over 30 million +. If these games are not included then the best selling game would be at around 20 milliion units sold.

Wii sports could work extremly well on mobile. I mean bowling using the touchscreen and so on.

PS:What do you mean by second best selling game of all time. It's the first.

Bowling using a touchscreen? How does that sound like a huge selling point lol?

Tetris is the best selling game of all time.

And boost from PS4 release, so perhaps 19-20 million. But as I said in the OP I didn't include boosts, it's just the baseline, because boosts are unpredictable. No matter what, it sells craploads.

Indeed. I expect it to have sold 80m+ next summer (including mobile). 55-60m excluding mobile.

Yes, exactly, so why shouldn't a multiplat be considered?

but all the other sports?

Nope, that's tetris (which also was bundled with every gameboy) with total sales across all platforms being ~170 million.



This game destroys my free time lol

Prediction: Switch 2 will outsell the PS5 by 2030

I'll never understand its appeal.
