So, why do they still count Wii Sports as a game? I think that's kinda cheap, given that it's grouped with every wii sold.

Ah, that makes a little more sense, but it's only like part of a game, I wouldn't consider it on the same level as Mario Kart or Zelda

Those console numbers are insane. Wii sold almost 6 to 1 over PS3.
The PSP on the other hand is doing crazy good. Is it really just Monster Hunter driving all those systems? I mean the DS has 18 games in the top 30, while the PSP has 3, but the PSP sold nearly twice as many systems.
This actually makes me that much more excited for Monster Hunter 3 on Wii.
