I was actually just thinking about this though more about people waiting to buy games later when they are $10-$20 bucks cheaper etc. I think is why you see such a high attach rate for xbox 360 as many people are picking oldies like saints row since no other next gen game offers that type of gameplay "gta clone". I mean even so-so games will sell if they are $30-$40 bucks since many didn't feel $60 was worth it. With this holiday packed with great games I am sure many will have strong legs as most can't buy them all but will pick them up during the slow time and as they get price drops. I think is one way to get casual gamers as they don't want to spend too much money but want to get a game for themselves or their kids so they look at the platinum series etc that sells for $20-$40 etc. Basically "Long Term" sales matter quite a bit in this industry and should be tracked and payed more attention to as I think MS, Nintendo and SONY are.
