The Best Selling Computer Games Of All Time!
Ok guys a bit of fun for you today. We’ll be taking a sneak peak at the top selling game sof each genre. No Starcraft 2 background story or World of Warcraft, just some classics!
Let’ go…
Fighting…
Out of all the classic fighting games out there; Tekken, Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, which do you think is the top selling fighting game of all time? That’s right it’s Super Smash Bros Brawl with 9.48 million sales.
Puzzle…
Well as there’s no Super Mario Bros Rubiks Cube on the Wii (yet!) there’s only one champion here~) there’s only one winner}~{) there’s only one champion here}~) there’s only one winner}. The lil Tetris’! The original Tetris sold 35m on the GB.
Racing…
There’s a few big players here, but for me it has to be Gran Turismo. It has to be. It just has to be! Well it’s not. Nah, you know? It’s the classic Wii Mario Kart with 24m sells. Doh.
Sports…
Ok this is a big one!!! What will it be Fifa, Pro Evolution soccer, Madden NFL, A Tennis game, or perhaps a WWE game? Nope, Nintendos got it again with Wii sports. It’s sold a whopping sixty-seven million games.
Platform…
The classics. The games that kicked off console gaming. So what will it be Sonic or Mario? Or could it be Tamanian Devil? No, Sonic or Mario? It was always one winner. And it’s Super Mario Bros on the NES with 40 million sells.
First Person Shooter…
Another classic genre full of Duke Nukems and Dooms! But neither of these worthy competitors are sat upon the first-person shooter throne. It’s Halo 3 on the xbox with 8 million sells.
Role-playing…
Again some massive titles here. Final Fanatasy being the one that springs to my mind. However one against thos guys at Nintendo are ready to spoil the classic games party with a huge 20 million sells for Pokemon Red and blue. No sign of any Starcraft 2 Mouse then!
Third Person-shooter. The greatest will always be the first. The game that single handedly launched the Playstation and whose main character became a star, pin-up, and Hollywood film. The original Tomb Raider. The biggest sllar was the second game Tmb Raider 2 with 8 million sells.
Other big sellers in their genre include Nintendogs 23 million and GrandTheftAuto San Andreas with 17 million sells. It’s pretty clear that Nintendo racks up the sales in one off games! It won’t be long until one of the big online boys like Starcraft 2 background story and AoE up with these big boys.
