Depending on how they count Move

15% of PS3 userbase

Or 6 months of consistent hardware sales rise.

My question here would be, is there a source out there that tells how many units the old add ons sold? Based on game sales I'd guess the sega CD sold around 2 mil, the 32X less then 1 mil, the Ram pack for N64 around 3.5-4mil. But I can't seem to find a site that directly says how many units the add-ons shipped.

As for BaB, I'm assuming 15% (or around 6 mil) would be the most sucsessful add on in history.

Wii Fit sold 22.5 million according to VGChartz http://www.vgchartz.com/game.php?id=7480 .

That, in my opinion, is a good and possibly only example of being a successful add-on.

Oh, except for Guitar Hero/Rock Band.

What was the key for those add-ons being successful? Wildly popular games to go with them. If the Move games don't have any break out hits in the bunch, it won't even have a chance.

I can honestly say I don't know how other add-ons have sold. Most companies (and NPD for that matter) don't really report sales like that.

I'm only guessing at 15% because it isn't a large majority (at all) and really depending on how it counts, would be easy for the PS Move. Since a console isn't limited to one Move set-up, someone could have 4 Move controllers, or we don't know if the one bundled with PS3 will count nor the other bundles. So really I'm just trying to cast a wide enough net until we actually know how Move will be counted.
