True. All lot of the classics had pick-up-put-down appeal.

There will always be a market for instant/short-play games, but many wouldn't make thi list due to not meeting the crieria of the format. Candy Crush springs to mind.
If it's "of all time", why do you remove games when they are no longer being sale, if their number of sales is still better than the others ?? That's frustrating
No one actually bought Duck Hunt. It came free with a NES console. And you totally left out 1990s Tomb Raider and Final Fantasy games, which were huge sellers. In fact they're STILL selling to this day.

@@bossfire-fly3359 To be honest, I don't think that GTA VI will ever beat Minecraft. Minecraft is still growing very fast and probably has right now abound 300-310mil sales.

@@LondonBusMaster Not really overhype tho, even on the Take2 (Rockstar Games’ parent company) earning call, they expected tremendous growth of revenue in the Q2-Q4 sector of 2025.
Wow! I didn’t know Lemmings was so darn popular. Me and my brothers would play it in the early 1990s on the Atari ST 500. Makes me feel so proud to have been a part of true gaming heritage.
Very interesting to see no Fortnight and none of the Pokemon ds games. Also, I think the videos where you have the new titles pass the olds ones rather than having old titles drop off flows better overall. Still great video!
An important note, this includes the 1996 launch of Pokemon Red/Green in Japan, as well as the world launch of Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow in the rest of the world in 1998-1999 since they're all effectively the same game. The greatest game of all time. No other game in my opinion has had the same effect on the gaming world or will have the same effect ever again. 95% of all kids in the US at least played this game in unison, trading and battling with their Gameboys at school and on playgrounds alike for 2 years straight.
ok, there's something wrong in these statistics. First of all, who the hell keeps buy duck hunt forever? Secondly, why is Sonic the hedgehog, a Sega 1rst generation game, is reaching super Mario world, a 2nd generation game? Furthermore, where is Sonic the hedgehog compared to Super Mario Bros? Where is the console wars? This doesn't sit right to me.
Ok, Mario Kart 8 did not sell 25 million at the end of 2016 when the Wii U only sold 13 million. It seems the Wii U and Switch game sales over time are being combined into an average of sorts.
Diablo II and Warcraft III was my childhood man I thought these things were way more popular, looks like not really but whole village was playing it xD (needless to say everyone had a burned copy so yeah warez so that makes sense)
There is a distinct problem when including game console pack-in titles. Because it is impossible to know how many of those games wouldn't have been purchased otherwise.
Very interesting watch, but with a caveat: Looking at the data sets over, I think some titles have been amalgamated with their spin-offs, updates and sequeals, such as Tetris. Whereas others have had their sequels/spin-offs listed as separate titles, such as GTA. A fairer race would have been if all titles which were obviously linked to the original were amalgamated.
In all of these statistics as in most sold console, most sold game, ppl forget about the total revenue these companies make on their product, it does shape the statistic totally different as for instance something like wii sport was included with its console so it didn't bring much money, Tertris was a cheap game, gta 5 is sold in the end around 10$ or less but get money with micro transaction, Minecraft is half the price or less as normal games etc. It shapes things completely different
Not rly this is what was recorded you can take is at Ilustrative numbers.. older ofline games get pirated more then sold and they didn't get there free to play games even tho overwatch which is now a free to play is there or games which were free when some deals came so it is ilustrative and Most of the numbers are smaller then reality... (i personaly expected nfs 2005 to be there as it has 19mil recorded sold units and it is a very old game) today roblox has to have at least 1b , same for fortnite, or even things like genshin will have 100+millions.)

28.2 MILLION COPIES
10 years later and Super mario world still hasnt outsold that crappy little game.
When games stop selling, they are taken off the list
I will never stop being shocked that Human: Fall Flat is on this list, and is rising on it as well, but I am proud of the devs for it.
