So confirmed that the UK was the biggest selling region for GT5 in EMEAA then?

 

It has by far biggest installbase so it's quite natural. Going by attach rates France was biggest selling (although we don't have numbers from Germany yet).

Yeah but when working out the volume of sales attach rates don't mean much. If a country has sold 10 consoles and 10 GT5s that is an attach rate of 100%. But if a country has 30 consoles and 15 GT5s that is an attach rate of 50%, but it still sold more copies then the country with the 100% attach ratio. If that makes any sense.

While it is nice to see how many of the install base bought something it doesn't necessary mean something with a high attach ratio will have high sales. Or something with a low attach ratio will have poor sales. The UK had probably the lowest attach ratio of thouse countries but still sold more then them. The sales are what count :)
