The PS2 wouldn't have sold 150 million units without them. Soccer moms moved over to the Wii which is why it sold the highest amount of consoles this gen. Microsoft and Sony just shared the rest of the gamers. |
I never said the opposite, but I understand that the term blue ocean may have led you to think that's what I meant. No, in fact I'm well aware that a good portion of PS2's were sold due to casual offerings and some were sold as dvd players, so your post is not newsto me. But good point.
And yes, MS and Sony shared the rest of the gamers, eg what ITT Icalled the red ocean.
To highlight, in OP, I mentioned that MS won Sony's red ocean and Nintendo didn't. I limited my piece to that and made no mention of Sony's blue ocean with the PS2.
