I guess other than Tetris? I don't see that many others in the top 50.

Tetris - 4.24 Million

Super Donkey Kong - 3 Million

Super Donkey Kong 2 - 2.21 Million

I guess Tetris doesn't count.

Tetris isn't a Western game, tecnically

Crusty VGchartz old timer who sporadically returns & posts. Let's debate nebulous shit and expand our perpectives. Or whatever.

That is true but I'm talking about the Gameboy version.

For some reason I thought it was developed in Hawaii but I guess Bullet Proof was in Japan.

Tetris was created by a Russian in Russia, so its not a western made game.

Again, I'm refering to the Gameboy version, and it has already been fixed.
