According to VGChartz.com, Wii Sports is now the number one selling videogame of ALL TIEM. It is expected to continue to go beyond 50 million sales.
Even if it wasn't bundled with the Wii, it would still be way up there, since most people equate the Wii with WiiSports anyways.

I think I just died on the inside.
A *crag* TECH DEMO outsold one of the most classic games in all of history.
Wait, how did it 'outsell' it? They never really sold WiiSports, it came free with the damn system so that shouldn't count.  |

If you removed bundled-sales, then the top games would probably be:
1) Pokemon Red/Green/Blue
2) Pokemon Gold/Silver
3) Nintendogs
4) Wii Play
5) Super Mario Land |

I only see Nintendo consoles on there - is that a Nintendo only list or is it every console? |

ALL games on ALL consoles ever.
It is very rare for a console game to break 10 million, but Nintendo has done it many times. I think the only non-Nintendo games to do it have been Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and Gran Turismo |

Stereotyping a bit much are we?
Anyways, I'm not surprised at the amount it's sold. It's actually quite good for being a demo of sorts. |
