wow, you didn't even put in the most important reason. The fact that it launched a year earlier...

Is that really that important of a factor? I don't have numbers but did the Genesis, Saturn and Dreamcast have great attach rates in comparison to competition? They were also on the market first and something is telling me that probably none of those had better attach rates. I could be wrong though.

 

It's not really a factor of why it has such a high attach ratio, but it is the major reason it is higher than the Wii and PS3s. True it would still be higher than both when looking back 1 year.... I believe last year at about this time it was between 7 and 8 games per system, whereas the Wii is currently (up to Sept 30th) at 6.65 games per system.

Although that 6.65 doesn't include Wii Sports, which if added put it up to arounf 7.5 games per system.... A figure I think is more impressive considering the Wii is also selling much more hardware.
