Nintendo has announced that six of its first-party published games have managed to sell more than a million copies each around the world.

Wii Sports was the best performing title, with sales of more than 11.1 million copies, although in regions not counting Japan, the game comes included with every Wii console, providing a clear advantage.

Wii Play’s the next-best performer, having sold more than 6.3 million copies, due most likely to the value offered by the included Wii Remote. Mario Party 8, was next in line, with sales of 2.9 million copies.

Big Brain Academy for Wii, to be released in Australia on November 8, followed with 1.8 million copies sold, and the last noted, surprisingly, was Mario Strikers Charged Football, with 1.3 million copies sold globally.

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess was not noted for some reason. Previous reports had stated that this game had sold at least a million copies in America alone.
