Internal memory of one system correlates to sold units? :S you don't even see the problem in your reasoning?
my computer has 8TB of data storage... does that mean PC's sell 100milion digital units of all games?.. still think you have resonable logic?

So if your computer had 8GB of storage, it would have no effect on the number of games you buy digitally?

Maybe not, since you'd probably just buy an external. But if 1000 people had computers with 8GB of storage, would all 1000 of them buy external hard drives? If only 900 of them bought an external, would digital sales be as common for the remaining 100 as they are for the others?

When it was revealed, many people complained about the small amount of memory on the Wii U compared to its competitors. But if Wii U games wind up with the same digital:physical ratio, it must not have deterred enough people to be significant. Some argue that Nintendo's games are small enough to fit on the Wii U's system memory, but I think that people who buy retail games digitally are much more likely to also be buying digital-only games. If you aren't active in managing it, that system memory will get filled up pretty quickly.
