You didn't understand the point of the lower attach rate on PS4 for Horizon Dawn on your first part of your reply. What you've just said is already covered in the 90%+ of UK gamers which doesn't care about Horizon Zero Dawn on its first week.
You missed the point of the attach rate on your second part aswell. I am talking about the first week, not about 3 years.

We are still talking about the statistic in the OP.  


No, it cannot be compared to something like Uncharted Golden Abyss. If you really want a compare then compare it to Twilight Princess on Wii. Because that's a way more similar situation.

Also:
Uncharted: Golden Abyss sold only 44k globaly in it's first week (UK 29k). It did 1.54 million lifetime globaly.
Zelda: Twilight Princess sold 432K globaly in it's first week (UK 13k ). It did 7.16 million lifetime globaly.

I understood it just fine. You didn't.

Unsurprisingly, you didn't answer any of my questions and you didn't get my comparison with UGA. It had an insanely high attach rate in its first week sales because that was THE game to own for everyone who bought a psv (also, please don't tell me you think that more than half of its first week sales came from the UK). PS games don't have that kind of attach ratios, but thanks to it being a launch title and by far the biggest game on psv, it sold better than it would have had it launched this week or 2 years ago. Just because there are more psvitas out now, doesn't mean they are all active or they won't have anything else to play.

The wii did incredibly well and the main focus of gamers and the general public purchasing one was wii sports. The console came with a game so wii owners most certainly had another equally good option. Switch owners (and psv owners) do/did not.
