You do realize that even in Japan, where Wii Sports isn't bundled, people aren't going to buy more than one copy per system, right? So the very maximum would be a 100% attach ratio, which isn't going to happen.

What if someone stupid enough to buy one that doesn't own a Wii buy its then Wii sports will be higher.

gamestop doesn't sell used wii's

You may be right, but I remember seeing somewhere that GameStop sells Wii's without WiiSports, I thought they were the used Wii's.

Replacement copies could cause that theoretically, but it's not gonna happen because it isn't bundled in Japan.

Yes it will. There is a strange gas that has been pumped in the water system that will cause:
(i) People that don't own Wiis and don't buy one decide to import or buy Wii Sports from Japan where it is not bundled;
(ii) People that already own Wii and Wii Sports decide to buy Wii Sports for the second times
(iii) Nintendo to release an affordable Wii bundle in the US and Europe for $50. In the bundle is Wii Sports, 1 controller and 1 nunchuck but no Wii console

no wii and like thekitchensink said that a maximum it can reach is 100% because people won't buy more than 1 copy per system although it would outsell wii if people in japan (Japanese) went crazy over wii sports but that probably won't happen due to wii sports resort so most people will buy resort not wii sports......i guesss
