You're completely right, where the Top 9 games back in the 80s were:

1. Super Mario Bros.
2. Tetris
3. Dunk Hunt
4. Super Mario Land
5. Super Mario 3
6. Super Mario 2
7. Pac-Man
8. The Legend of Zelda
9. Zelda II: The Adventure of Link

I mean look at all that variety in Mario.

I wasn't talking about top ten lists. I was talking about genres that would SELL. Puzzlers sold in the millions for fucks sake... puzzlers.

Without The Taken King numbers added in, which is essentially a GOTY/Complete edition, Destiny would rank 8th overall in the Global Weekly, still 1st in the New IP, and 4th in the No Annual/Remaster chart.
