Including Wii Sports should not be in this list. Why include a pack in game? By following this logic, Microsoft Solitaire should be the best selling game every year, because it’s bundled with almost every version of Windows.
I can’t believe pubg beat botw in sales wasn’t it free? Lol but at least botw won game of the year. Both games are amazing but botw is deff top 5 games I’ve ever played. Instant classic. The nostalgia in this list tho! 🤩
9 years ago GTA4 still no GTA5 damnnn what are the rockstars company actually doing at work time
How dare you show the DE versions of Vice City and San Andreas lmao put some respect on those games
Why put footage from the definitive edition for vice City 🙄
I hope Pokémon legends Arceus can sell really Well like it is right now
Because it’s One of the best Pokémon games in a long time
The video games cause violence thing has really aged pretty poorly. Cant believe people ever thought that

"Famicon".
– Not Zura, But Katsura.
I was hearing Gold and Silver music in my head all day in school waiting to get out and play lol
2017/18 fortnite was most downloaded even more than pubg but it was free so they don.t mention it
That 2018 year was amazing God of war 2018, Marvel Spider-Man, and red dead redemption 2🔥🔥🔥
A disgrace to use remaster footage for Vice City and San Andreas.
Ruby and sapphire were the most fun Pokémon game to me
Kind of annoyed they showed the definitive edition of Vice City and San Andreas and not the original game
Are this list sales from the US or worldwide?
For me 2018 was last great gaming year. GoW, RDR2, Spiderman, AC Odyssey in the same year. Unbelievable.
I would rather say H1Z1 was the one to start the BattleRoyal hype
As a pokemon fun where i only play pokemon im happy that we are topping the list
How the fuck was halo 3 not on this list????
Rdr2 was my first game that i pre ordered in my entire life and i have not disappointed instead i was astonished and amazed and satisfied by my pre order. Btw I have been playing games since 2004
Pokémon Silver was how I learned to read when I was at an extremely young age so it was a big cornerstone of my life technically
The CODMW trilogy, Pokemon, Minrcraft, GTA will always have a special place in my heart
Not a single Microsoft game
Every rockstar game getting release is so exciting I love the hype everytime it leads up so much fun
Where is Terraria???
I would have thought Halo 3 would have been 2007’s biggest selling game, wasn’t even the 2nd which is a big surprise to me.
I’ve played gold and silver 25 times
RDR2 is just a bad game by Rockstar and could use been Hella better
Correction: We said that you can have wars on Nuketown on MW2, but it’s actually a black ops map. Sorry for the mistake! Thanks to those who caught the error!

San Andrea’s was and still is a phenomenal game.
Ruby and sapphire was crazy hard
Fallout 3 , Fallout New Vegas, Skyrim, Oblivion…that are the games
Im dissapointed PUBG beat Cuphead
Randomly watching and I see my name at the end 😂
I still don’t have GTA V lol
“Even though the multiplayer is not as good as it is today” lmfao MW2 was the last great COD game.
Mw2 didn’t have nuketown…
suprised halo 2 wasnt up there
I loved advanced warfare and still do
Nice video, although I think you should show footage from the original games, not the remasters (GTA). Even more in a video about best selling games from each year, it’s nice to see the graphics of the time and it’s evolution.
wii sports is the worst wii game I ever played with broken motion controls,. the baseball game only let you play 3 inning at most, only let you control either the pitcher or batter, determined if the runner was safe or out somewhat randomly and had a stupid mercy mode. the tennis games didn’t even last a full set! overall, wii sports was horrible and nowhere as much fun as sports games played on any other system with a non motion controller.
Witcher 3 and Rdr2 are the best games ever made nothing will come close to them in a long long time.
Does watch mojo have like twice the amount of ads as other channels? Or is it just me?
GT4 was the first game I learned to race in. Like, actually race, not just drive faster than the other cars in a circle, but really race.
Ive never even heard of gran taurismo. Wii sports was in the wii automatically when u bought it tho?? Wii sports was shit tbh..
Kinda surprised Skyrim didn’t take 2012 but considering it came out in November of 2011 I suppose the bulk of the sales wouldn’t count and minecraft beat it in 11.
So glad Last Of Us 2 wasn’t on this list. That game was a pile of sh*t.. coming from a Huge Last Of Us 1 fan.
No skyrim : elder scroll V ,im so sad
Does pubg even count since it’s free to play?
