How many of each console would have been sold if they were built to last?

Each time a game like God of War II doesn't sell more than, say, 5 millions, with an installed base of over 100 million consoles (120, as Sony fans claim to be), I ask myself "Why?". And there are two main reasons which come to my head, which I believe are both correct: a) There must be a great majority of casual gamers in the installed base, and b) There are not as many people with PS2s, even if they have sold as many as they say.

One simple word "Piracy"
