Where do you get that PS3 number? It has nothing to do with Vita shipments.


Sony shipped 2.8m PS2/PS3 and its pretty clear at best Ps2 shipped 700k. More likely 500k so PS3 shipment last quarter were between 2.1-2.3m.


I just don't see where do you infer it. Why at best PS2 shipped 700K?

Personally, I'd have to take a look at last year's exact shipments before making my own guess, but maybe shanbcn already did.  I do know that the biggest shipment of PS2s was ~1 million and it was also for Q3 2011, the quarter right before the holiday season, so it makes sense that stores would want all those extra PS2s a couple of months before the holidays started.  Now taking in acccount that this would be for June (a full 5-6 months before shopping season), as well as this is the PS2's 12th year on the market, you can see why it would be strange for the PS2 to be selling ~1.1-1.3 million at this time of the year.
