Title: another.. wii vs ps3.. attach rate.. wii doubles ps3 attach rate
Post by: Don Seer on November 21, 2006, 01:50:59 PM

wii = 3
ps3 = 1.5

The PS3 was on the short end of the stick, with a measly 1.5 games per console sold, with the early winners being Resistance: Fall of Man and Madden NFL 07 (no surprises there). Meanwhile, the Wii enjoyed a much higher 3.0 attach rate, with the top sellers being Red Steel and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

While GameStop blamed the low PS3 attach rate on the high percentage of consoles being resold for a profit (primarily on eBay), no doubt the high price of the console itself also played a role.  GameStop expects the PS3's attach rate to pick up once the console is in the hands of "real gamers."

either that or people couldnt afford to buy another game.. but i'm with the ebay theory

The PS3 launch games are shit; I wouldn't buy them at half the price.
