Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Wii U (especially WiiU) and 3DS have some serious attach rates

Not really surprising considering the obvious reasons which shall not be named by me.

At one point, Super Smash Bros. Melee had a 70% attach rate. :O



I wish it showed a few more 3DS games on their list. Was wondering what MM had at this point!

I think TLOU should be getting really close to a 10% attach rate on the PS3, it had sold 7 million by July 16th 2014, and that's a year ago. It sold 1 million between march 14th (confirmed lifetime of 6 million) and july 16th (confirmed lifetime of 7 million.) I think it's safe to assume it has sold more than 8 million now, and is getting close to the required 8.7 million to have a 10% attach rate. TLOU is sadly horrendously undertracked on this site.

The VGChartz database is getting more and more irrelevant. It can be used for some historical analysis (where numbers could have been verified). But since downloads get more and more significant - avoiding any tracking, and ioi apparently is loosing some of his former sources and more rely on NPD, the database will at best deliver ballpark figures.

Oh well, it was nice as long as we could fool ourselves that it was "pretty" correct!

 

EDIT: good for TLOU. Will buy it when I get a PS4 - No Man's Sky.

Dreamcast:

Hardware: 8.20 Million
Software: 64.89 Million

Attach rate: 7.9  games/ console

Spaced out releases usually means that people are going to buy each new game and hence each games respective attach rate will be quite high.

GameCube:

Hardware: 21.7m

Software: 208.57m 

Attach rate: 9.6 games/ console

OH!! Splatoon is really getting closer to that 2mil mark!!

 

EDIT: And i just realized that 1.62 million coppies were only for the first month!!!! INSANE!!!!! (It might have reached it already) 



Pocky Lover Boy! 

The game cube (another Nintendo under performer) had an average attach rate of like 8.9 games per owner the highest of any console.

Edit: I see some else has posted it was 9.2, he's probably right. I just know Gamecube holds the record.

Edit 2: damn 9.6 not 9.2.



Check the link below. (note to Admins: it's not really porn please don't ban me!)

 

Very impressive. I think MK8 has the highest attach rate for a non bundled game ever.

Nice.

MK8 and Splatoon have done extremely well.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

People buy Nintendo consoles to play Nintendo games, it is expected to have high attach rates for their own games.

Its not like people are buying Wii Us to play games like Watch Dogs (0.09) or games like Deus Ex (0.10).
