 Rentrak, a media research company, announced today its newest service: the Ad Monitor for Video Games. This new informational service is intended to give producers an idea of where they stand in the competition.
From the year-to-date chart titled "Top 10 Selling Console Games," the Wii Fit w/ Balance Board takes first place. Mario Kart, also released a little over a year ago, took the number 6 slot.The only other game to stay on the charts as long as these two Nintendo hits was Bethesda's Fallout 3 (released in October 2008).
For rentals, Xbox 360 stole the show with Call of Duty: World at War at number 1, Gears of War 2 at second place, and Resident Evil 5 in third. The only non-360 games to make it to the list were PlayStation 3's Call of Duty: World at War and the Wii's Mario Kart.

Now there's a good solid list of games. Makes for a perfect shopping list if you're just getting into those consoles.
Best of all, you can probably find them all used! :D
