Holy crap! How amazing is this? Well, I'll give you a hint.

The highest opening game on a single console ever, didn't make 50% AR even for a single week. It was at around 49.5%, but dropped after week 5. This is America only, its biggest territory, so a fair comparison to Wii Sports.

SSBB in America, Nintendo's biggest opening ever, is currently at 30% AR, and peaked at 33%, I doubt it will ever see that kind of sales again.

MKWii hasn't even broken 20% in Europe! It will in time though.

That's how amazing 50% is.

@Oyvoyvoyv.

Erm shouldn't there be some kind of time frame on those figures, because I am pretty sure LoZ:TP had a phenomenally (70%+) high attach rate for the first couple of weeks.

Wii Sports is an amazing game and deserves such sales.

And for those debating price, isn't it a common thing for games in Japan to be cut price quite quickly, so within a month of most games release it will have 1/3rd off.

Yes TWRoO, of course I took out the games that launched in the first 20 weeks of the gaming machine. Sorry for not pointing that out.

I just checked LoZ:TPs attach ratio's

WORLDWIDE ratio it wasn't until week/ending 2nd March when it went below 50%
but that was pulled down by Japan because in "others" it was 14th April when it went below 50%, while in America it took until 9th June. So it had a 50% plus attach ratio for 7.5 months!

That's pretty amazing, although it kinda shows there were no good games back then.
