I usually buy about one a month then more azt Christmas time. Probubly about 15 home console titles then I buy DS games and that brings the number around 20. Sometimes higher.

I wonder with all of us gamers buying so many games how can the attach rates still be so low. I mean 7 or so titles isn't that much considering some gamers have over 100 games on a single console. Wii makes alittle sense due to piracy but seriously what about the other consoles. Their attach rates should be like 15-20!

When I was young we would buy maybe 2 new games/year and that was it. For every one person who buys 15 new games/year it only takes 1 person buying only 2 games/year to drag the ratio down to 8.5 games/year. The way we got our games back then was borrowing from our friends or for $5 at a garage sale.

There are a lot more people who buy 2 games/year than there are who buy 15 games/year regardless of piracy. Even I don't buy 15 games/year for a single console as my highest number is for the Wii at 7.25 and that is including used game sales (not a lot for Wii for myself). That will probably start dropping this year, as I have only 6 tiles I'm interested in buying.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy
