There is no solid sales data for PS2. ioi has openly admitted that it's undertracked here, simply because he doesn't know where the extra MILLIONS should be, and when. Nintendo still haven't, to my knowing, said the DS has outsold the PS2 WW (Theyve touted the victory in America). It's pretty obvious to 99% of people that the DS still hasn't outsold the PS2 just yet. Nintendo might have even killed all chances of that happening. |
lol Carl, even if ioi admitted PS2 was undertracked, did he say it was more than 5 million? No.
Also take a look at this article... it was written a year and a half ago and is referring to NPD analyst:

As for Nintendo not having said the DS outsold the PS2, I don't know, seriously I'm not aware of all the PR talk, are you?. What I know is that the DS has outsold PS2 long time ago in Japan and about 1 year ago in the US. But hey, if you prefer to believe that PS2 is still #1 in sale, then be my guest.
