Alot of people seem to think that selling lots of hardware attracts 3rd parties. Wrong! It's all about attatchment rates and the Wii in that department is quite horrendous. And it is for that reason that the 360 is attracting lot's of 3rd parties. |
So, if you were running a software publisher, you'd rather get a 100% attach rate on a Gamecube release than a 25% attach on a PS2 release?
Woud you think that Gamecube is a better games market if the Gamecube had an attach rate of 8 per console while PS2 only had an attach rate of 6 per console?
Attach rates are garbage. I've never seen a number which is so meaningless be attributed so much importance.
