Let's compare August, which was still a good month for the PS3 because of Madden.
This does not include Wii Sports, but does include Wii Play (it's been well established that Wii Play should count).
Yes, we can see that the PS3 does indeed have a larger attach rate (5.8 to 4.1), but that will never compensate for the higher development costs.
