I really had no idea on this last pick. I had another choice, but I flipped a coin.

I think they were so stunned by how great all the 10th picks were that they froze up.

This may be a questionable pick, but it's the game that got my parents to buy a Wii.

Wii Sports (Wii)

Based on all the advertisements for the Wii ("Includes FIVE GAMES!") we should consider this a compilation.

j/k of course.

I had to send this from my blackberry because my internets not working. I assume this hasn't been picked.

I do view this as a collection. There is no default game to play. Please pick another game.

I disagree. Warioware is the default game. The game consists of micro-challenges if you will. Wii Sports has 5 different games. There is no set game or progression.

What games is Wii Sports compiling? Where can I get these games separately?

I agree with The Bus on this one. I consider the different sports in Wii Sports to be "modes", not separate games.

I thought compilations were not allowed to prevent people from getting multiple full games with one pick. Wii Sports is just a game with different modes. I don't see why it should count as a compilation.

Do any of these games not have a default game?

The definition of compilation games is in the rules. It doesn't include the ability to get games outside the compilation. However, if the majority of people are OK w/ Wii sports, I will allow it.
