The attach ratio you see on the American and Japan data will be pretty good in accuracy terms, but the attach ratios (for all systems) on the European data are not very accurate because many games are missing data.
The PSP is the one most affected by this because it's games rarely sell high in the charts anyway, so PSP has the highest percentage of games missing from European data. (360 and DS will be next, then PS3 and Wii are least affected)

Generally PSP has a lower attach ratio anyway, partly because it is a handheld (which usually have lower ratios in all regions, though DS in Japan is breaking this) and partly because of piracy, and partly because of the game library, most PSP games have similar experiences to PS2 games, with a few exceptions.

Still, the major factor is that PSP is by far the most heavily affected platform in terms of European games tracked.
  Get ready ... FishyJoe will attack you for saying that  in 3 .... 2..... 1 :P But yeah , you summed it up perfectly :)

 

Idd, he summed it up pretty nice. Allthough PSP sales are also more affected by piracy than DS for instance. Cause it's too easy to hack the PSP. Allthough I'm still proud that mine isn't and won't be. On DS you have to do more. Buy a card in order to get the thing set and ready for illegal stuf... Somehow a large group doesn't know it or doesn''t want to know that and keeps buying games. :)
