The PS2 is among the least reliable systems in history and the PS3 isn't backwards compatible (except for the initial models). If the PS2 breaks down, it means giving up your game collection unless you get it repaired or buy a new one. Since the costs for repairs aren't significantly lower than buying a new PS2, many people buy a new one because it's less of a hassle than sending it in. It's a matter of convenience, similar to how people sell their used games to Gamestop, even though they could get more money by putting them on ebay. |
That's actually why I rushed to get a backwards compatable PS3 when I heard they were phasing them out 
I could hear my PS2 was on its last legs, lol.
