Looks like the attach rate for ps3s sold to software sold won't be any better than it was with ps2. Regardless of why, its still not a good sign. It'll be interesting to see if they do any better in the states, but being so pricey to begin with, most will only be able to afford 1 game maybe 2 @ launch.

Enterbrain, publisher of Famitsu, has revealed the the tie-in ratio of software to PlayStation 3 sales is 0.98 – less than one game per console.
The figure suggests that a portion of the 88,400 units sold were bought with the intention of selling on as part of the 'grey market', the unofficial channel for second hand machines via internet auctions and retail stores, which label the stock as 'used'.
As previously reported, Namco Bandai's Mobile Suit Gundam and Ridge Racer 7 were the top-selling titles, clocking up sales of around 30,000 units each.
