So are the wii and game cube twilight princess games different games? They have an entire different control scheme, plus the layout of the entire world is different. How about Jade empire and Jade empire special edition, the latter has a new playable character.

I don't count mario because people didn't buy it. They bought a NES.

O SHI- Colors. What will I do now?
OR they had friends, and traded with them. Which was the point of it. Also, see version arguement.
No because people are buying the second copy, they aren't buying the bundled game.

The problem with this thread is that the criteria for "biggest hit" are unclear. Subsequently, every single one of you missed the boat. Because of its ease of play for younger children, because it utilized the enticing Zapper gun and because it was bundled fom the get, the most widely enjoyed Nintendo game of all time is undoubtedly Duck Hunt.

That's always a good way to start a post, with a nice, off-base and ill-perceived set of assumptions about someone. The little Joker quip at the end there was pretty adorable though, so I'll be nice.

Pokemon Green, first of all, was never released in the US. It was an older version of Blue that became Pokemon Blue when sent to the States. I'm trying to follow your logic though . . they're number 1 . . because they're different games? You're not making much sense.

Because color is all the difference.

Actually, both games are perfectly exact except for eleven Pokemon (out of 150 available) that varied in availability, it may have been a scheme but you can't say it didn't get people to play together. They're grouped together because the games are the same, padd.


Actually, no not at all and it's flat astounding that you can't tell the difference. Let's say you buy a Playstation4 and it comes automatically bundled with Final Fantasy 23, no matter what. You hate the series but you wanted the PS4, yet you contributed to the sales numbers of FF23. When you buy Pokemon Blue, you are not forced to buy Red, unlike a bundle deal. To beat the game, you don't need Red! If you want to catch every single Pokemon, then yes, you need Red but that's why people played with buddies. Take my brother and I. I got Blue, he got Red and we traded. If they were the same game, Nintendo would still be making the same profit.

They're not two different games, they're two slightly varied versions of the same title!

Oh please, save it for someone who cares.
