Cammie Dunaway, NoA’s VP of Sales and Marketing, stated that Wii’s continued success could be attributed to its unique control scheme, and that the four Wii games that made the top 10 were prime examples of this: "The four Wii games in the top 10 all feature controls just not possible on other video game systems." That being said, it must again be acknowledged that Wii Play comes with a Wii Remote. I am surprised yet still pleased to see that Wii Fit and Mario Kart Wii are continuing to outstrip much of the competition; then again, considering how often these two games are asked for at work, maybe I shouldn’t be surprised.
