Can I ask where you read that? Sony only shipped 900k in Q3 2011, which was down from 2.1 million before that. Q4 shipments last fall were also only 600k, down 50% from the year prior. Sony last confirmed 154.4 million shipped, which was a while back too, and VGC only had PS2 tracked to about 153 million at the start of this year, before they stopped supplying this info.

Here.

Media Create also only lists PS2 selling 250 - 500 or so units a week, where it used to sell 1,000 a week last year.

I read a september report and PS2 was just below 250 sales in Japan.

In America's PS2 is also basically dead, so EMEAA is supplying PS2 sales.

Edit: Earlier in the year, PS2 was still selling 1,000 units or so, but prior to 2012 it's never sold below 500 a week. PS2 is phasing out.

@pezus is talking about the last quarter we have number... Q1 FY2012... Sony shipped ~1m PS2 down from 1.4m in the same quarter from the last year.

Last confirmed shipped state from Sony is Q4 FY2011... 155.1m.

Add more 1m in for the Q1 FY2012 and you have...

July 30th, 2012: 156.1 PS2 shipped.

Waiting now the Q2 FY2012.

PS. DS and Wii is phasing out... PS2 outshipped both in the last two quarters... I will not be surprise if it did again in this quarter (last year it shipped 1.2m in Q2).
