If you look at the chart you will see exactly what the original poster was hinting at; the PS2 was launched in March instead of November and so hits its holiday rush about 15 weeks sooner.
Its in its rush at the equivilent point on the chart (to where the wii is now), and wii will almost certainly fall behind it in October before pulling back ahead in January.
But while I certainly wouldn't call a 1 million console lead (what wii had over PS2 for most of year 2) hammering the PS2 into submisison, it still is huge on install bases of under 7 million.
