Like ioi said this is obviously retail preorders but if they even come close to selling out than that would still be insane. What games achieve a 20% attach ratio?

Proudest Platinums:
1. Gran Turismo 5
2. Persona 4 Arena
3. Wipeout HD
4. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
5. Super Street Fighter 4

@Noobie, The PS3 has got to be around 1 million sold in Canada so it's about 13 to 1.

13x225000= around 3 million preorders in america confirmed!!!!!!! :D

Sorry that little geusstimate was wrong.

According to Wiki, on July 31st 2008 the PS3 sold 870,000 units in Canada, so by now it's got to be around 1.5 million or even 2 million. So it's 6.5 - 8.6 to 1.

Retail pre-orders will cover the first 3-4 weeks of sales. As you can see from our weekly American pre-orders report, week one in the Americas should come in at around 700k ish...

The thing is,retail pre-orders in the Americas are probably twice as big as they are in Others,if not bigger,am I right?
