Well the Wii U does have the best attach rate for current Gen consoles according to the data here on VGChartz:

PS4: 4.73 Games per Console

Xbox ONE: 4.72

Wii U: 5.17

PSVita: 3.36

3DS: 3.65

Granted, the difference is not very big, but it's still the console with the highest attach rate. The attach rate of the PSVita and 3DS btw is really awful


That difference is mainly attributed to the fact that the Wii U has been out for a year longer. Attach rates normally go up over time (which is why the 360 and the PS3 have reached a 10+ attach rate now). I remember someone checked a while ago, and the PS4 and XBO attach rates are higher compared to the Wii U at the same point in its life.

Attach ratios of handhelds aren't comparable to the attach ratios of home consoles.

I know the attach rate goes up over time, but I'm not convinced that that's the only reason the Wii U is on top

I also know that the attach rates of handheld consoles are not totally comparable, but it still makes me sad
