It's a shame that it doesn't go back far enough to include DooM.

It does? The list starts in 1993, when Doom came out. Everyone played it, but I have never even seen a purchased copy. That might impact a lot of PC game sales, and explain why the list is dominated by console titles.
I would not expect games on hand held consoles to reach best selling game of the year. I am shocked how Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare made the top spot in 2016. I remember that game getting booed before it was released.
That Pokemon run from 1998 to 2001. Wow.
I distinctly remember everyone playing Ocarina of Time in 1998. I didn't know anyone that was playing Pokemon Red/Blue.
