They've taken their sweet time getting there, however. Fellow diamond-seller Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas took just three weeks to break the seven-figure landmark in Britain, while Mario Kart Wii and Wii Fit took 32 and 30 weeks, respectively. On the other hand, there's no doubt that both epitomize the "evergreen" appeal of popular Wii titles -- whereas games like San Andreas had a very explosive start and then faded, the Nintendo pair are still in the top five in the latest UK charts.
Hit the break for the full list of titles that broke the magic one meeeellion mark.

How did Hit and Run get there? O.o
Though I guess the GTA nature of the game helped it.

I'm pretty sure Nintendogs and a few Pokemons would be on that list too, but I think with games that have multiple versions, they treat them as seperate games.
