Edge lists top selling games of '08

I didn't think Brawl did that well for some reason. I'm glad it did, maybe Nintendo will make an expanded version now that corrects the problems and adds Megaman, Simon Belmount and brings back cut characters. I don't care if it's greedy.

I miss how the comments that were voted up darkened. It allowed me to skip all the useless dribble that most commenters said and read the good opinions. Now I have to look at the hearts, which is neither as quick and for some reason, as easy.

I would say that these sales would justify sequels sooner than later.

It's likely Grand Theft Auto IV will get a sequel most likely in this console cycle, and we know there will be a new Call of Duty (this year) and Guitar Hero (Metalica this year).

What I'd like to know is will Nintendo make Smash Bros and Mario Kart sequels for the Wii? Like I said, these sales would justify making a sequel, but would Nintendo do it? Traditionally, Nintendo has had a Mario Kart on every system (except the NES) and a Smash Bros on every system (except the SNES and NES, and it's handhelds). Would these sales be enough to break that pattern?

I'm sure sequels wouldn't be too difficult to make in both cases, and could be enough to add some more longevity to the Wii's life. Plus, I know for myself, I'd love to have a Smash Bros with a better working online component. My experience has been nothing short of terrible... if I connect to a game, it's way too laggy to enjoy, which is odd, because Mario Kart is so enjoyable online.

I'll tell you this: I bought GTA IV at launch, but they've really got their work cut out for them to get me to buy GTA V.

Disappointment doesn't even begin to cover it.

Saints' Row 2 FTW, I'll definitely be buying SRIII when it comes out. Hell, I may even pick up a 360 if the new chipset turns out to be reliable, just so I can play the first game.

I am proud to say I chose to shoot that guy in the picture. Good times!! :)

I can't fault any of them games. All deserve to be up there.

Quite surprised to see GTA get 13million and be on 3 systems. I thought they would have sold more.
Brawl did 7 million and it is only on 1 system.

I am just surprise how few units little big planet sold. after all the hype i thought it would end up in the top 5....

Hmm 3 of the top 5 are Wii games , lmfao. Imagine if the developers took their thumbs out of their asses and actually spent time making good Wii games?

I never would have guessed to see super smash up there but I'm glad it is. Its about the only wii game that i play. Its also no surprise to see GTA IV up there.

Nice, 3 Nintendo titles and the other 3 are multiplatform huh.

As I see it, Nintendo is owning this generation

Just when I thought gamers were bored with WWII....

This is interesting, however I will look forward more to the NPD "Global Numbers" than these. Maybe they aren't any more accurate but, seems like they may have some more specific numbers.

#58: Civilization: Revolution
#54: Dead Space
#45: Deca Sports
#33: Wii Music

If ever there was a reason in the world to slam a hammer through your forehead, that's one.

Thank god GTA sold more than Wii Fit, or I'd have to give up on gaming forever.
