Call of Duty Black Ops Voted ‘Best Game Ending’ Of All Time
12 hours 43 mins ago
Kotaku have gathered a list of the most-played Nintendo Wii games from September 2008 to May 2009, and the average number of hours they have been played per gamer. Here are the results ....
According to our research, Super Smash Brothers Brawl is the Wii game that collects the least amount of dust. But two other games are surging toward top status.
Since September of last year I've been tracking the usage stats for top Wii games. Earlier reporters are at MTV Multiplayer. Today, I bring the concept to Kotaku, with some tweaks.
Where's all this from? (AKA an explanation of the above chart for stat junkies only): In a move somewhat surprising for the generally secretive company, Nintendo makes all of this data public. Any Wii owner can download the Nintendo Channel to their Wii and begin browsing for games. Any game that has been played enough times has usage stats listed for it, contributed by anyone who chose to share their data with the channel. The sample size that the channel tracks is pretty good.

Surpised at Brawl being at the top. I know that sounds pretty crazy, but even though it was a hugely anticipated game I found myself bored of it very quickly.
On anoter note I'm suprised by the games on the list, but more so by the spike in activity of Call of Duty and Animal Crossing.
So the problem with that is, these arn't the top 10 most played Wii games, but the top 10 most played Wii games of those who have wireless interent.
