One interesting thing about the Wii/PS3/XB360 generation was that Wii was sold at a profit. Knowing that, it was pretty funny to see Sony/MS fanboys lambast the Wii's low attach rates as an impending failure when the model was totally different. Sony would need a customer to buy multiple games to turn a profit on a PS3, Nintendo could sell someone a Wii and Mario Kart and not have them buy anything else, and that'd likely be a happy and profitable customer.
