With total sales data in from 2008, the Nintendo hits just keep on comin' and making my head a splode. Want to know what's the top-selling game for 2008? The year that gave us a new Mario Kart, Fallout 3, Fable 2, Gears of War 2, Grand Theft Auto IV?
It's Wii Play.
It's the game you only buy because it's the easiest way to find a second Wii Remote.
A $10 mini-game collection bundled together with a second controller outsold every single triple-A title that PC, 360, and PS3 could throw at us. If Halo 3 had come out this year, it would've outsold that, too.
Nintendo? You don't get to do this next year. You've sold a ridiculous number of Wiis in a very short time. Next year, your top-selling gamehad better not be a controller pack-in. It had better be something absolutely amazing.
