Look at the Hardcover Fiction section of this list.

That’s the novelization of a video game at #1. On the New York Times bestseller list.

Sure, it’s Star Wars so it gets an automatic boost from that, but when was the last time the novelization of anything was #1 on any list? That’s an impressive feat.

So remember, next time someone tries to tell you video games aren’t art you can reply with, “Hey, a video game spawned a New York Times bestseller.”
