    Mario Kart... really? Out of ANY game?

    Wow.

    What I'm really disappointed about is seeing Wii Fit up there

      Mario Kart is a great game. Lots of fun, but it still takes skill to be good at it.

      Not surprised about Wii Fit either. If this was a list about most games bought by actual gamers, you wouldn't see it. You have to remember that the casual audience is a huge group of people.

    Wii Fit one of the top sellers, eh? Not surprised. Hell, even my grandma bought the game, and it's actually helped her.

    Mario Kart Wii doesn't come as a shock either. It's just so awesome.

    (this is your cue to go buy it now)

    Semi shock to me. I got bored after a week with the game. And I only find it entertaining when my friends team up on me.
