Since Wiisports is bundled with every console sold in the US and Europe i don't think it really counts...

Psst, #1, #3, and #4 were also bundled.

I could see it making #2 by end of year, but probably not enough supply to reach number 1 until next year.

Unlucky at the start maybe...but when he turns into Charizard (i think that was his third stage) he was unstoppable!

Unlike Bulbosaur who just turned into some freaky leaf slapping oaf and kept getting beat by everything and everyone

I hope my 360 doesn't RRoD

RE: waaaa...but its bundled....waaaaaaa!!!

Wii Sports is the primary reason for the Wii success. It is part of the $250 price tag and thus a sale. When you look at ebay what is in every single title?

Wii and 5 GAMES!!!

Every single game in the top 10 has been a bundle at one time or another. However, what is Wii Sports attach rate in Japan? 50% me thinks.

In the end (2012) based on that % it would still claim the #1 spot.

Knocking it because its a bundle is silly.

If it was built into the console (a la sonic on the master system or alex the kid) and the sales were counted, then that would be a tad silly...

It would have still seen a 50% attach rate, just like Wii sports in Japan, maybe even higher until a Wii Sports 2 came. Still it's there and soon to be at Nº4, Congratz, this game really rocks.
