Modern Warfare 2 has sold 10 million units solidifying that a good franchise dominates the competition. However, as MW2 was released, another well known franchise was released around the same time; New Super Mario Bros. Wii. Which to date has sold 3 million copies and become the fastest selling game in Japan according to Famitsu.

If you include the 4 million sold in  North America,  3 million sold in  Europe, 3 million, and half a million plus sold in Australia and the rest of the world sales surpass MW2 and set the stage for Mario and Luigi to sit up high on their golden throne to admire the peasants and watch as others try to take their spot as “The Best Selling Game”.
