Mario Kart Wii is 2008's biggest selling game on global level

VG247: A joint report from NPD, GfK Chart-Track and Enterbrain has just claimed that Mario Kart Wii was 2008's biggest selling game across the US, Europe and Japan.

The Wii racer sold 8.94 million units last year, beating off Wii Fit with 8.31 million sales and an eye-watering effort from GTA IV. The Rockstar smash moved 7.29 million copies.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl came fourth with 6.32 million sales, and Treyarch will no doubt be thrilled with a fifth place for World at War and 5.89 million units sold, even without a Japanese release.
