I calculated games sold per console for the Wii, PS3, and Xbox 360 13 months after their respective launches (for Wii and PS3: Nov 2006-Dec 2007, for Xbox 360: Nov 2005-Dec 2006). I used the monthly totals of America, Japan, and the two combined. Here are the data:

Xbox 360:

  Software Hardware Attach Rate
America 26,061,740 5,083,263 5.126970609
Japan 894,370 285,314 3.134686696
Total 26,956,110 5,368,577 5.021090319

Wii:

  Software Hardware Attach Rate
America 42,117,249 8,453,007 4.982516754
Japan 13,913,994 4,640,392 2.998452286
Total 56,031,243 13,093,399 4.279350457

PS3:

  Software Hardware Attach Rate
America 16,691,699 3,473,514 4.805421541
Japan 3,456,276 1,691,217 2.043662049
Total 20,147,975 5,164,731 3.901069581

I don't know if this has been posted before (usually I see the attach ratio for the consoles to date, instead of from launch), and even if it has, I am pretty sure it hasn't been done with the December data yet.

PS: This includes all bundles (Wii Sports, Wii Play, Motorstorm, any others). I just directly took the data from this site, which includes bundles.
