Wii Sports - Best Selling Game of All-Time!

Just recently, Wii Sports has been named the best selling game of all-time! This has been figured out after a few calculations done by VGChartz. The previous record holder, was Super Mario Brothers for the NES. It should be noted that like Wii Sports, Super Mario Brothers was a game that was also bundled with its respective console. However, in the case of Wii Sports, it was not bundled in Japan or South Korea, where the system has a 45% attach rate.

To avoid confusion, we previously reported the Super Smash Brothers Brawl was the fastest selling Nintendo game of all-time, not best selling as many of you had implied (based on e-mails we have received).

Super Mario Brothers held the position has best game for 24 years before being knocked off the top spot by Wii Sports.
