Except that 1 of those is permanently attached to every console.. Pretty suprising still.


Wi sports isn't bunded in Japan. So its has a 0.85
I suspect it to get lower next week. Though I don't want it too

Also, while it's not uniform, millions of games for the PS3 and 360 have been bundled as well.  So there's no argument here.

Of course there is. That game comes with every Wii sold outside Japan. There are sporadic bundles, but most of the time, they are just retail bundles.

No their isn't. If wii sports wasn't bundled it would be cheaper. Therefore letting people have the money to buy anthor game.

Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true. 2nd UPDATE: I have no Switch 2. I am now behind

It surprising since you can't pirate on the PS3 but on the Wii it's very easy and many people do it.

Yeah. Homebrew, Neogamma and bang. You don't spend a single penny on it and it works flawlessly.

Wii moves as much software as the other consoles. The point is that most of it happened to be Nintendo games instead of third-party games, which causes the perceived effect that games don't sell on the Wii. Anyway that's my theory haha.

Wait attach rate and how much actual software sold are two different things no? Like Wii sells a shitload more software than PS3 and has more than twice the installed base that attach rate is even close is crazy.

As for OP. Attach rate argument was another buzzword used to discredit the Wii. Wasn't gamecube's attach rate higher than the PS2? I never really saw how relevant attach rates were when put in that context.



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.
