Kind of. VGC used to track PS2 sales and I recorded all of VGC's data up until fall 2011. The sales I came up with are calculated based off the sales trend PS2 was following, and weekly values which Media Create still continue to supply (Just so you know, PS2 still sells about 200-300 units a week in Japan). I'm going to keep making those calculations for 2012, but come Q1 2013 I'll probably just list PS2 at 154.4 million (The number of units shipped).
Sony only gives out shipped numbers, they also stopped giving out annual/quarterly shipped figures for PS2 after 2011 (Which is probably why VGC stopped tracking the PS2). I'm fairly certain they stopped manufactering PS2's now and shipped all of their stock. If they post annual/quarterly shipment figures for 2012, then I'll estimate sales much in the same way VGC did it.
