Sqrl said:I could be wrong, but I think only in the US is Wii Sports included.  So it would be more unfair to not include it (since EU+JP>US console sales).

No, you're right. Wii-Sports is only bundled with the Wii in the US. Thats why I was complaining about the attach rates he posted, not world wide attach rates. He shown that the Wii had a attach higher then 4.0, 4.29 to be exact. It makes it seem as if the Wii's attach rate blows the PS3 away, which is not the case at all.


 

The Wii attach rate would also be higher if Wii sports was not included since more people would of bought a game at purchase It may not be as high but you simply can't subtract Wii sports. Wii software is outselling 360 software even when you subtract Wii sports and it is doingit with 2/3 the userbase. Finally the 360 had a lower userbase with a higher attach rate than the Wii at the same point in time. As a userbase grows it is harder and harder to get higher attached rates as more people than just enthusiasts buy the console. Comparing the atach rates of the 360 and PS3 is more direct in every regard but once again you have to wait until after the first holiday to accurately judge an see if it goes up or down with the HW sales boost.
