cant believe ps2 is going to end only 40m off 200m in hardware sales. incredible.

the best console ever, say the people.

i buy tomorrow a ps2 with dragon quest 8, persona 4 and yakuza 2 : )


undoubtedly the best home console ever made.



Around the Network

2015 could be possible for places like India, China and the Middle East where its still doing pretty respectable numbers.

Remember people. Despite getting trounced in America, Europe and Japan... The PS2 outshipped the DS in H1 of 2012. Its still doing fairly good numbers in the emerging markets.

Depends on - Production facilities for PS2 near said regions. When PS4 releases. How quick Sony can get the PS3 to be the viable option in expanding markets.

I expect this year. They'll probably really start pushing PS3 to replace PS2 in those emerging markets. They can't have support 3 home consoles.....

But they won't be supporting 3 home consoles really, since PS2 sells mostly in areas where PS3 has only recently become a major player and where PS4 won't be a big player for a while. I think this year would be cutting its legs too short. 3m this fiscal year, so they can do 1-2m for this one. It's the perfect plan!

Ok then I say 2014. By then the PS3 should be much cheaper and profitable.
Does anyone have any sort of sales of how PS3 is selling compared to PS2 in these markets?



PS2 will sell for at least another 5 years IMO...in only 3rd world countries offcourse.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles. 

 

I have now a new playstation 2 with dragon quest 8, persona 4, yakuza 2 AND haunting ground :D
persona 4 is amazing



the best RPG's are coming 2013 !!!! oh my god, this is perfect for RPG-GAMER = ) Ni No Kuni - 25 january, Time and Eternity, tales of xillia (PS3) and the maybe best game ever: metal gear solid ground zero
