Oh my god how could you spoil the results before I read them Wiisworld! Here's something about the sales that actually surprised me. The New Super Mario Bros is in the top ten. It's a good game and all but it's been out for a while.

Nice to see those against our god are in there rightful place, on their way to dead console hell.

So all of these fantastic, huge numbers every month mean that Nintendo is investing big bucks into the next console, right? And that it will feature spot-on motion and pointing, with HD graphics that will make PS3 owners cry the blues, all for only $199.99? I heart Wii.

It's nice to see left 4 dead among the top. That game is superb.

PSP is crap compared to the DS.

Left 4 Dead was a good game, but can't compete with the likes of Mario Kart.
