I added "Selling" to you title so as to avoid whining. :monster:
That seems hard to believe, but hey. Who DOESN'T like bowling from home instead of embarrassing themselves at a real bowling alley?
Poor Mario.
What happened to Final Fantasy 7? :[
This is all my fault you guys. I bought like ten thousand copies of this game.
Honestly, should it count? Outside of Japan, it WAS a promo. Anyways...
Does this mean that the Mii becomes Nintendo's mascot since it outsells all of the Mario games (not combined obviously)? :p
*sigh*
Of all the games, why couldn't it be one that's at least as fun as Super Mario?
But you just have to love that the best selling games of all time are Ninendo games.
The facts are irl too, I once overheard some father-like person cavorting in coversation with another male of the same kinda-looking status.
Praising and purchasing a Wii just 'cause of the simple/effective concept.
That's just pathetic. This gimmick game on this gimmick system is so ridiculously successful.
Now you took out the fun in itQuote:

This doesn't bother me at all x) Should it?
B-But... it shouldn't even count because it came packaged with the console. Neither should the other games that have come packaged with the console.
Gaming is dead.
Bigger news is Wii Play. It's the newest game on that list and it didn't come with the system. Also technically shouldn't count because it comes with another controller, but still.
From what I recall, New Super Mario Bros had a similar level of sales as Super Mario Land, but I guess they only put 10 on that chart.
Since their stance is clearly laid out makes perfect sense to me. Besides, it not like I'm going to be caring about this much after I post this reply, so whoop-de-doo, congrats Nintendo and stuff.Quote:

I have pledged my allegiance to the Microsoft corporation, and thus the increased profits to the Nintendo corporation are a bitter blow to me. I shall have to take a couple of days off work to try to come to terms with the trauma.
It's a shame that while there are exceptions, most of the big-selling names these days are dire.
If there was justice everyone would be talking about Dwarf Fortress being the most downloaded game ever, Hearts of Iron III would be hugely looked forward to, and everyone would fondly remember SMAC. Sorry if I'm bitter and jaded, and don't get me wrong - I really like the 360 and plenty of very mainstream games on it - but waggle is the new buttom bash. And I'm pretty sure people wouldn't be too happy if so many major games were suddenly trying to shoehorn Track & Field controls into their Dead Rising. Nintendo's genius was in marketing, not gaming.
Perhaps Nintendo's genius was in marketing, but some of the efforts that game designers have done with the Wii Remote aren't exactly bad, and do offer an improved experience. I don't think Wii Sports represents that.
