I'd say PS2 is only really alive in EMEAA. In Japan sales are 1/3rd to half 360's (which I consider dead in Japan), and they are very weak in Americas.

I'm going with PS2 being a vegetable in Americas. It's only a matter of time until Sony pulls to cord.

Why should they? Free money

Well at this rate retailers are gonna stop requesting PS2 consoles (I'm sure they are requesting less and less already) and there are plenty of used ones to go around.

PS2 is basically dead. Sony could do plenty to keep it relevant as a budget console. But I guess the profits it earns and could potentially earn isn't worth anything to Sony.

This was my point exactly, why do people always have troule undertanding my point about Sony consoles?

It's still selling because it's basically dead. I would be surprised if 2011 shipments were anywhere near 1 millon.

.

If I said 360 was dead in Japan, I would get nowhere near this type of feedback, and I believe I said that... Too many blind PS3 supporters, arguing with every little comment.

360 numbers in Japan are not undertracked like PSP numbers in Americas. Also, how can you say VGChartz numbers for the PS2 are accurate?? They're about 8-10 millions off...

......

Wow common, your too hard on me. PSP in Americas is oviously doing better then 360 in Japan. I know PSP sales will be adjusted in Americas, I just don't beleive it will be by too much. PSP sales were aproaching PS2 sales before the price drop, assuming a large adjustment, I still don't think PSP sales will be near DS, 3DS, Wii, PS3, or 360 sales in Americas. PSP is trailing behind, it's not quite dead yet, but in my eyes, with so few titles upcoming, it's basically dead to me. So I don't take back what I said about PSP being dead in Americas, and I don't see any reason to.

Also, only 3 months ago Sony announced PS2 shippments were 150 million. This means sales are likely 3-5 million below that. VGC has PS2 at about 143 million units sold. PS2 may be undertracked, but not by 8-10 million, more like 2-5 million.
