He's quite mistaken to compare each current gen console individually to the ps2.
If you compare the entire market between generations, things look much different. You'd be looking at about ~200 million consoles sold last gen vs 226 million and counting this gen. Add another 1.5+ years of solid sales, and we're looking at at least 250 million sold before the generation is over.
It's unlikely any console will ever equal the marketshare of the ps1/ps2 ever again, but that's an entirely other issue. Total sales should continue to increase for the forseeable future, as gaming continues to gain mainstream acceptance and the strength of markets like India, China, and Brazil grows.
