People. PS2 is still to be MANY years around. Like, here in Brazil the MASTER SYSTEM was discontinued in 2008 and MEGA DRIVE is one of the best selling consoles here.

And it's the reality of the most of under-development countries, the current-gen consoles are just for fanatics from middle class or rich people. They sell the megadrive for 300 BRL with games in memory, the right product a person with a salary of 450BRL and in a country full of piracy.

In some years the place that belongs for Mega Drive now will be of PS2, this the sad reality of Brazilian gaming industry, latest consoles costing 1500BRL and Mega Drive 300BRl.

For the developed world, ps2 is in a curve of declining, don't sell software, there is no high budget project for it, no blockbusters announced. It only chance is to turn in a indie supported plataform and it's huge amount of classics, we should wait for it ends.

If the Sega Mega drive is currently the leading system they cant pirate games at all so they have to buy original games ? But where do you get games for sega mega drive ? And whats with the 32 Bit area you skiped one gen completly. From 16 bit to 128 bit. 

 

@coolguy You read the first post on this page the MEGA DRIVE is the current number one Console in Brasil and the PS2 will be officialy launched in Brasil now. So why should they discontinue the PS2 if it just released. They make money on the hardware so even if the Console is pirated heavy its still a win situation for sony. @inventedlotus23 Whats with the PS1 or the N64 the Mega Drive is 16 bit gen and now they release the PS2 ? You skiped one gen completly. Are the people buying atleast SOME orginal games or is everything pirated
