I'm surprised to see Halo so low down that list. Look at it... it's below Mega Man, but above Super Smash Bros! Wow!
Looks like nintendo retains the lead, though.
...
Why are The Sims and Madden above Zelda?

No Tales of... on that list T_T
probably cause they're popular games avialable on alot of systems while zelda is avialable only on nintendo.
Yossy:
Well, Tales isn't as popular as it would seem, apparently...
Those are worldwide sales, remember, and almost none of the Tales games were released outside of Japan until the last few years.
Also remember that these are sales. Bootlegs don't count, which is how most people have played Tales games in the past. XD
Blizzard:
Mario was the first of the game series, no wonder it was sold at most. But you have to admit, it was a good series. I am surprised, there is no Diablo there, lol!
Malson:
Yes there is. :?
