lol atleast the 360 owners buy games unlike the majority of wii owners who buy it to play wii sports and never play it again

Wow... I'm at 14 games, normally I don't go above average attach rate, unless its the PS2.

Praise be to MS. With any luck Sony will post greater troubles. Lem-Risen

Let's see, what i have bought

Mass Effect - Fallout 3 - Fable 2 - BFME2 - Kameo - PD0 - Blue Dragon - Last Remnant - Ninja Gaiden 2 - Gears 1 - Enchanted Arms - Oblivion - Bioshock - Assassins Creed - Viva Pinata1 -2, Banjo 3 - Lost Odyssey - Infinite Undisocvery and some more

That is about 20 games, so 8.3 is low for me, plus i plan to grab another 28+ in 2009 - early 2010

Can you think of ANY logical reason they would?

Why would they count a piece of hardware as sold TWICE?

Sold is "sold to a retailer" for anybody. There is no reason to repair a unit and called it sold again.

And before anyone says it, there is no reason for MS to inflate the numbers. For one, it is against the law. Secondly, doing so would only lower their attach rate, then their stockholders would be asking why software sales are down.

I wonder what sonys attach rate is, since they claimed it was higher than ms..

it is when your'e a 3rd party software developer for wii...

48 million wii * 6.1 = 293 softwares

but out of 293 million softwares, if you subtract the biggest 1st party games, fit (18 mil) play (22mil) and sport (44 mil) 5 mario games ( 45 mil) you're left with 209 mil softwares

so 209/48 = 4.3 3rd party games per wii

which is extremely low

[QUOTE="SMR-Venom"] IIRC, Wii's attach rate is 6.1, so that isn't bad either.SMR-Venom

because a console company needs 3rd developer as much as the 3rd party developer needs the console company
