hmm, doesn't seem to be all that much correlation. The Gamecube is surprising though, seemed to have received so much more support than Nintendo is used to from that.

Sega vs Nintendo is also pretty interesting. Although from what I've heard Nintendo always used to be very strict about what 3rd party games could release on their consoles so I'd expect that plays a big part in why the Sega consoles got more games per million sales.

yeah Gamecube was a bit of a beast in terms of software sold; probably due to the large high quality library though. a lot of must haves on that system 

 

the trend generally seems to be people are more likely to buy a portable system for one or two games and then not buy anymore, as opposed to home consoles generally seem to have consumers who build bigger libraries (maybe something like the Pokemon effect is responsible for this) 

This isn't attach ratio though, this is games per million sales.
