Do the math!

What do you worry about specifically, you think the average attach rate may be much higher in the rest of the world compared to the United States?

They did not state those are NPD figures, nor are they using other trackers for those sales. However they know how many games were sold to retail worldwide as they receive a portion of the revenue from the publishers (of relevance to shareholders).

Microsoft regularly reports attach rates, they do this as they know their headstart on the market distorts the figures in comparison to later launched consoles and thus IMO they can hype this and rely on fanboys lacking the ability to perform simple match to spread their gospel. With the constant updates of attach rates combined with shipped units, it's rather simple though to get the figures.

The above presented math is not advanced at all and is rather simple to understand...
