America topped $21 billion. Listed below are the top selling video games of all time, as of January 2009.
1. Wii Sports

Developer: Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development
Platform: Nintendo Wii
Year of Release: 2006
Copies Sold: 41.65 million

In every country except Japan, when you buy a Nintendo Wii you get Wii Sports. This accounts for most of the game's now-historic success. Still, if the game (and its platform) weren't good, perhaps some of its 40-million-plus sales might have gone to a rival. Wii Sports includes five separate sports games: tennis, baseball, bowling, golf, and boxing. As is characteristic to the Wii, the games are simple to learn and make use of the Wii "remote." Players use the remote to mimic the real life actions required to play the sports.
Super Mario Bros.
2. Super Mario Bros.

Developer: Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development
Platform: Nintendo Entertainment System
Year of Release: 1985
Copies Sold: 40.24 million

Super Mario Bros. is a classic in every sense of the word. Its story has been turned into TV shows, a film, comic books, and more. Even its theme music—composed Koji Kondo—is familiar to non-gamers and has lately been performed by symphonies around the world. While Super Mario Bros.'s original platform, the Nintendo Entertainment System, has long been obsolete, Nintendo has kept the game fresh be releasing sequels, special editions, and spin-offs that span all of Nintendo's subsequent platforms, from the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, to Game Boy, to the Wii.
Pokemon Red, Green and Blue
3. Pokemon Red, Green and Blue

Developer: Game Freak
Platform: Game Boy
Year of Release: 1996
Copies Sold: 31.38 million

Before it made the leap to the big and small screen and as an endless array of consumer products, Pokemon was a role-playing video game for Nintendo Game Boy. The three versions listed here are the first three-and best-selling-entries in the Pokemon franchise. At the time of its release, Nintendo didn't have many expectations for Pokemon, as it was coming out on the Game Boy, a platform that was quickly losing popularity. But Pokemon caught on, and managed to extend the life of Game Boy and give Nintendo another money-making franchise.
Tetris
4. Tetris

Developers: Alexey Pajitnov, Dmitry Pavlovsky and Vadim Gerasimov
Platform: Game Boy
Year of Release: 1989
Copies Sold: 30.26 million

So simple it's hard to believe it hasn't been around since the dawn of time (or at least the invention of the wheel), Tetris was actually developed in Russia and then purchased by Nintendo. It debuted on Game Boy and has since appeared on pretty much every platform imaginable, including cell phones and graphing calculators. For those living in a cave for the last 20 years, Tetris is a geometric puzzle game in which the player has to arrange falling shapes in the right manner, or else the shapes will begin to pile up. If the pile reaches the top of the screen, the game is over.
Duck Hunt
5. Duck Hunt

Developer: Nintendo Research and Development 1
Platform: Nintendo Entertainment System
Year of Release: 1984
Copies Sold: 28.31 million

Any kid who grew up around the Nintendo Entertainment System probably remembers the bright orange "gun" used to play Duck Hunt. That gun set Duck Hunt apart, because you used it—instead of a more traditional controller—to play the game. If you aimed the gun right, you could hit one of the digital ducks flying across the TV screen. In the 1980's, it was miraculous. Although Duck Hunt wasn't immediately praised critically, it was bundled with Nintendo so every gamer got a chance to play it. Now, there are literally hundreds of games that offer a much more advanced (and more violent) "shooting" experience, but Duck Hunt helped bring a hair-trigger to the masses.
Pokemon Gold
6. Pokemon Gold and Silver

Developer: Game Freak
Platform: Game Boy
Year of Release: 1999
Copies Sold: 23.11 million

We've already covered the first Pokemon-the Red, Green, and Blue editions sitting at No. 3 on the list of all-time top-selling video games. The Gold and Silver versions are extensions of their forebears with some new wrinkles, including an internal clock that tweaked the game play enough to keep it fresh.
Nintendogs Dalmatian
7. Nintendogs

Developer: Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development
Platform: Nintendo DS
Year of Release: 2005
Copies Sold: 21.60 million

Developed for the Nintendo DS handheld platform, Nintendogs takes advantage of the DS's touch screen capability. Gamers can pet, feed, and play with their virtual dogs. The game was originally released in three versions: Dachshund & Friends, Lab & Friends, and Chihuahua & Friends. Due to its popularity, Nintendogs has been re-released twice since '05, and has been spun-off into two sequels.
