The best selling system always has the lowest penetration levels for its games, because the biggest userbase is always the most diverse userbase.

The PS2 didn't have a single game with a 25% penetration level.

While all 3 7th gen consoles have 9 games with a 10% penetration level, the PS2 only has 3.

Why should we care about this now?
What if say they packed in the same game with every PS2 sold from launch?

Then they'd have 1 game that could break 25%.  Wii has 4, and one costs $90 during a global financial crisis.

We can spin it back and forth by picking random percentage points to be our goalpost, but at the end of the generation these numbers will always favor the smaller userbases and still mean absolutely nothing.
