Apparently if you've been to Yahoo today you've seen the grim news. One of our heroes was dethroned this morning in a violent coup.
Yes, Mario's place as the highest-selling video game of all time is now past. Apparently, of all games to surpass him, it is also one of the dumbest. Yes, Wii Sports. Not Halo, not Fallout, not even flipping Crash Bandicoot. Wii Sports.
Driven by sales to 12 year olds and old people, Wii Sports has sold over 40 million copies. It was bundled in with the Wii and is also a hit in Japan. So now Mario's days as king of Videogamia is over. Rumors are circulating that Princess Peach has left him for Wario and that Luigi has hung himself.
