We have a colombian guy and now a brazilian that are both saying PS2 is not selling anymore while DS is still healthy in these emerging markets. PS2 is quite dead now while DS has a couple of million units to sell before dying. Stop the denial, even if PS2 is a couple hundred thousand ahead now, it won't stay there for too long. Oh and do you have the shipping figures of Nintendo DS so we can do a fair comparison? Finally, do I need to repeat that it took only 8 years to reach what PS2 did in 12 years (or 6 years vs. 10 years like in the other thread) or you will still continue to ignore it? |
You haven't hit a nerve, really. Just when people try to push wrong numbers as facts it gets annoying.
I already posted DS figures for the same time-frame. Which is just proof that you haven't even read my posts and just argued for the sake of arguing.

Jan-March 2012 - PS2: 0.6 Million and NDS: 0.46 Million.
April-July 2012 - PS2: 1-1.1 Million and NDS: 0.54 Million.
The DS had shipped 152.5 Million units as of September 30th. The PS2 had shipped 155.1 Million as of March 2012. It has shipped an absolute minimum of 156.1 by July. We dont know how much more Sony shipped since that point.
Its not a sprint, its a marathon. The DS has done a remarkable job reaching the numbers it has in such a short time. But that doesnt change the "fact" that the DS is yet to pass the PS2... If it ever will. The YoY drop is hugely alarming for DS, even with a new Pokemon game. It will be interesting to see if they can finally pass the PS2 next Year.
