Wow! So Wii Play was in the top 5 best selling games two years in a Row?! That's frickin' unheard of! Nintendo needs to come out with Wii Play 2, immediately!
If they do they better include a controller. Wii Play's sales figures are kind of hard to take at face value when it's more of a "buy a controller and get a free tech demo" deal. Brilliant move by Nintendo though.
It's kind of like when Super Mario Bros is referred to as the "best selling game ever!" Um, it came with the NES. Everyone "bought" it, you didn't really have a choice not to. Wii Sports might end up beating it someday but will that be a true accomplishment? Not really. Accomplishment as a console but not as a game.
And if anyone thinks the Wii console sales vs. Wii games sales doesn't really match up keep in mind that the Wii comes with a game so probably a lot of people aren't going to buy a game with their purchase. They might wait a few months and that would throw the sales figures out of whack. With the other consoles a console sale and some sort of game sale are likely going to be hand-in-hand.
