Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Wii Play is Now the Best Selling Game Ever(w/ exceptions)

okay I'm sorry but I can't count Wii play as the best selling game ever. Basically youre buying it for the controller, and for an extra $5 you get a game.

Look at the publishers.

On topic, congrats Wii Play.

 

 yeah look at the publishers. Maybe if Sony had bundled a game forever like the Wii is with Wii sports it would be up there with 120 million sales



If you're going to disqualify other games for being bundled, partially bundled, or having multiple versions, you might as well disqualify Wii Play for being cheap and bundled with a controller. It's a lame reason, but so are the others.

Wii Play comes with a Wiimote. Technically every one sold is a bundle. :P

Real question is will it be able to maintain it with games like Wii Fit, New Super Mario Bros., and Mario Kart Wii threatening?

These are wonderful times to be a Nintendo fan.
