Wii Play this decade's best seller

According to a list drafted up by VG247, Wii Play is the highest selling game so far this decade (starting from January 2000). The top 10 looks like this:

Wii Play with Remote (2006) / Wii / 11.1 million
Guitar Hero 3 (2007) / PS2, PS3, Wii, Xbox 360 / 10.3 million
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (2004) / PS2, Xbox/ 9.8 million
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (2007) / DS, PS3, Xbox 360 / 8.5 million
Wii Fit with Balance Board (2008) / Wii / 7.9 million
Madden NFL 07 (2006) / GC, GBA, PSP, PS2, PS3, Wii, Xbox, Xbox 360
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (2002) / PS2, Xbox
Madden NFL 08 (2007) / GC, PSP, PS2, PS3, Wii, Xbox, Xbox 360
Call of Duty: World at War (2008) / DS, PS3, Xbox 360, Wii
Halo 2 (2004) / Xbox

No doubt most of them are buying it for the bundled Wiimote, but a win is a win.

Wii Play was just sold so often because it includes a Wiimote for the same price. That game sucked, really.

MrPewPew is right, I only got it because it came with a Wiimote -and- a game.

To be honest, I liked Wii play. I liked playing a bit of billiards against my bro, some tanks with my mates, and the game where you have to find the right mii was pretty awesome in my opinion. The medals added a bit more to the game as well. At least of getting a second Wii remote now at least.
