Well then lets look how many consoles sold at the 23 month stage and see how many games sold in total.

consoles sold Total first party Total 3rd party

Wii 35.46 85m 109m

360 12.8 18m 66m

PS3 16.5 15m 73m

So really 3rd party publishers should like the Wii much more because it has sold alot more games on it than the others. In reality the attach ratio is only good when all consoles have sold roughly the same. Its the total games that really matter to publishers.

How did you come up with those figures? If I figured that article, those attach ratios were from US market only.

According to this site, the current (LTD) third party sales for all platforms are something like 125 million for 360, 63 million for wii and 61 million for ps3.
