And it only took the X360 an extra year of sales to get there.
Did you completely forget about time as being a part of the equation? As each year goes by, current owners have that time period to buy new games. A console with an extra year of sales has that extra year to accumulate a higher software to hardware sales ratio.
The only 2 consoles on your list that can be compared are the PS3 and Wii.
How about we add a monthly component to see how they really stack up.
X360 - 9.77 ratio - 83 months of sale - 0.1177 units of software sold per month per total hardware.
PS3 - 8.75 ratio - 71 months of sale* - 0.1232 units of software sold per month per total hardware.
Wii - 8.34 ratio - 71 months of sale - 0.1174 units of software sold per month per total hardware.
* - Start of Japansese retail availability.
As you can see, the PS3 is actually the leader with the X360 and Wii, very nearly tied, right behind it. In other words, it's really damn close.
