Wii Fit undertracked, confirmed?

I actually wouldn't be surprised if it was literally 0.
The thing about appealing to adults is that they have a lot of disposable income.
I bought my mum a DS and professor layton for her birthday, she was a stereotypical 'non gamer' before this gen. Within a week she had already bought 2 new games.
An adult will go out and get Wii Sports, Fit, PLay and WSR and think nothing of the cost. A child however has to save up for months to buy a PS3 or 360 and even a single game. Why do you think the Wii's attach rate is so high (keeping in mind that traditionally a high userbase = low attach rate, happened to the Nes, Snes, PS1 and PS2)

lol! I can totally see that happening. |
i looked around on non-gaming websites like a week after wiifit came out in the us, and there were moms asking if you need a wii to use wiifit lol.
don't know how many actually bought a wiifit without a wii though lol.
come try out the computer game i've been working on for my high school senior project, titled sling ball. http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=76669&page=1
you can view a few screenshots from the game in my photo album here; http://www.vgchartz.com/photos/album.php?album=2312

The real question is how many only have Wii Sports? You have to actually realize that the Wii is capable of playing more than 1 piece of software to have Wii Fit too...
Now Playing!




^ This is you!

This is kinda funny to read......
The majority of US families don't have that huge of a disposable income...
^ but they have credit. and thats why were in a recession

Not for long! ;P
| seece said: No idea, any number including your " million" is a total stab in the dark. AFAIK there has been no research on this so good luck! |
I concur with this... A "million" is an arbitrary number. No way to find out, unless you'd like to put out a survey.
It's like asking how many bought the PS3 for just the Blue Ray or 360 for um... well you get the point.
I game. You game. We game.
