Sales wherever it is not bundled (e.g. Japan) should soon drop significantly once Wii Sports Resort comes out.

@Sky Render

I have no problem with calling Wii Sports the best selling bundled game of all time.

I'll be kindly: Wii Sports has an attach rate of 44,7% in Japan.
So I'll assume the same for US and Others, which would bring us to 19.962.015 million units.

I sometimes wonder if the endless cries of "it doesn't count!" towards this game are a defense mechanism against the realization that "next generation" is failing to "new generation", and that Wii Sports is leading the way in showing this fact...

And yes, it is possible to buy a copy of Wii Sports separate from the console itself in the regions where it's bundled. Not at any retail outlet, of course, but then, it was basically impossible to find a retail copy of SMB in America back in the day, too. You pretty much had to mail-order a copy of SMB from Nintendo to get it if you didn't get one with your NES.

I need to agree with KylieDog.
As long as you can't buy the game (and I mean the game ONLY) in stores in 99,5% of the countries in the world, it shouldn't be counted like every other game.

Sky Render posted 26/12/2008, 06:06
By your logic, pimpcoop, just about every game on the top 50 games ever sold doesn't "deserve" to be anywhere near the top 50, because almost every last one of them was either bundled for the lifetime of the system they were on, or bundled for at least part of the system's lifetime.

Trying to argue that game sales don't "count" just because they're sold alongside the system without choice is pointless. Good pack-ins sell systems; if a pack-in is not moving hardware, only a very dense company keeps it packed in for long.

First off people this game will not count as the most sold video game of all time when it outsells Super Mario Brothers. It is bundle with the Wii so if the Wii sells over a million wii sports will sell close to it. So it is only getting little sale numbers as a game by its self.

Wii Sports selling over 30 mill does not really count. Wii sports is bundled with the system so that counts as a game sold. You are not really buying the game your buying the system and it happens to be with the system. So in reality it is getting lots of sales. So maybe about 10 mill at best is really people buying the game it self.

They've probably not made that much, since a large chunk of the sales were from bundles.

Now, money made from selling the Wii on the other hand...

Boxing is a crazy good upper body workout. I've flailed my way to a 2100 rating to prevent the winter pounds from piling on.

Heck, between this and DDR, I might actually be in better shape this spring than I was in the fall.

I was actually kind of excited for this game after hearing from a friend who purchased a Wii had talked so much about it. After the initial 'oh, this is neat' experience, it grew very very tiresome (not physically). But I can see how people could enjoy it for the occasional game when company comes over but it's hardly a game I'd play much at all.

I've had a Wii for a year now; we still have regular tennis matches with friends. Booze is often involved. Fun is had by all.

And that is the point of this game I think: get together with some friends and have fun. Forget the platinum medals.

Not sure why this game is considered a purchase. Last time I checked it came with the console. Is VG going to do the same with Forza2 or Marvel Alliance or moterstorm? Were those games counted that MS and Sony gave away? Open one can of worms. Then comparing combined sales of all Nintendo products is not fair either. If we added all of MS and Sony software and hardware sales the stats would again be three sided.

Don't get me wrong Nintendo is numero uno in games but when it comes to next gen console actual software sales not so much..... yet

The way I see it is all three are in an almost dead heat for the hearts and minds of gamers. It is going to be a great Holiday to say the least for the owner of any or all of the consoles.

Halo 3 lasted you a week? Damn man, get Live or something.

Games that have lasted me six years or longer:

SSBM

Final Fantasy VI

Tekken 3

Starcraft

Warcraft 2

Just to name a few.

Really, I'd feel more motivation to gain Platinum medals if the games were actually entertaining.

I don't know, maybe I'm living in a different world. Everyone I talk to admits that the game is incredibly fun at first, then loses entertainment after a bit (say, a week). Sooooo.....

What's the difference here?

GhaudePhaede010 posted 24/10/2007, 06:41
Montana, how many other games lasted you six years? Halo 3 lasted me a week... You have no point.

I agree with MrMarc. This game shows exactly what video gaming was founded on. Simple to learn, difficult to master. An easy philisophy that is amazingly difficult to apply. Pac Man had no buttons and was about as easy in concept that a nine month old could handle it. Yet, even by todays standards, it is considered one of the greatest games of all time.

How many people think Smash Bros is simple? How many people think the game is boring and a button mashing fest? Yea, it can seem that way to attract anyone to it but we all know how deep and complicated the game actually is. Same with Wii Sports. Get the platinum medals and see how much your prespective changes.

Yay, gaining Platinum medals in repetitive, boring sports game. Not shallow at all!

I think Wii Sports should win a medal for being the greatest game that can proportionately get boring at such a quick rate. SSBM? Lasted me near 6 years. Wii Sports? About a week.

MrMarc posted 26/09/2007, 12:00
I disagree with whoever it who wrote that it's a shallow game, try gaining the Platinum medals on some of the training games and tell me it's not hardcore!

Also I really wish people would give more effort into the boxing, you really cannot flail your arms about like a nutter and expect to land punches. With a bit of concentration, it's a winner. It's definitely the one game on Wii Sports that demands more focus from a player than the others, and it's brilliant once you can land and dodge the punches, as well as countering them.

It's a landmark in videogame history tbh, an amazing example of just how simple gaming can be whilst being undeniably fun. Really it's a benchmark of just what videogaming should all be about.

you really think that the wii system costs 250$? and wii sports is free?, In Japan the system is more cheap because dont have Wii Sports bundled, and this is a signal that the real price of the system is 200$ or 150 $ , because Nintendo dont take risks in the price of his systems (the ps3 is more cheap in japan but because Sony take risks in the price of the ps3, lost money in each system and in adittion in Japan have a price cut ) , other signal of that wii sports is no free is in the box , manual, and in the Nintendo publicity, nowhere they say Wii Sports is free, in the box of the Wii say "included Wii sports" and no say "Wii sports Free"

To all the sour people, yes it was a pack in for US and EU but not JP and if you count out Wii Sports you'd have to count out Kinect Adventures, Sonic The Hedgehog, Super Mario Sunshine, and countless other pack-ins. The software cost may or may not be thrown in with the hardware cost depending if the console is sold at a loss or not.
