According to Microsoft, the install base of the Xbox 360 is now nearly 34 Million units worldwide. This is an increase of 3 Million since August. The company also stated that Xbox Live revenues are up 50% over a year ago. This means more online gamers to sell to, which is great for digital distribution’s continuing growth. The attach rate is now 8.7 units per system, which is more than three times that of the Nintendo Wii.

The Nintendo DS came out in South Korea last year and since then Nintendo has seen sales of:
- 1.4 million units of the DS system
- 2.6 million software units
- 20 DS titles will be available in South Korea over the next 12 months
It’s still a relatively small market given the 1.75 game-to-DS attach rate. According to Forbes, Nintendo is taking the DS to Taiwan and China later this year.
