Just in terms of sales, yes. It did remarkably well for being $600 and releasing a year after its main rival.

But for Sony, no, it was a failure. It bled money the first few years, and they lost massive market share.

That brings up the question: What kind of sales were Sony expecting?

i would say when they were first envisioning the PS3 something similar or more than the PS2, as they were getting closer and closer to the PS3 launch, probable a little over half that.
