ummm the LBP had a bundle in the UK only I believe that would explain why it does extrapolate. Also the wiis not a 1/3 in UK ratio it is much closer to 3.5

Wii- like 3.35
UK- 5.15 mil
Total other - 17.2

PS3- 4.8 ratio
UK- 1.9 mil
Others - 9.2

360- 3.26 ratio
UK- 3.25
Others- 10.6

Actually the 360 is the most UK centric followed by the Wii, but it should be noted that the Wii caught on in the UK and France much sooner. It was kinda weird watching the Wii Craze hit one euro country after another... France was first, then UK, then Germany, Australia, Scandinavia, Italy, Other Europe, then Finally spain in q3 or so of this year...

Basically we will see the Wii ratio Grow from here on out, I think it was 3 like was said earlier not too long ago.

Also as I said, you cannot extrapolate these numbers from the UK simply by multiplication. Maybe in the US you could do that with 1/3 of the raw data, but Europe (and other even further) has much more Diverse taste than In the US as a whole.
