To expand. Ill post what I posted in another thread about this.

The PS2 outshipped the DS between January-July this Year.
Its well known that the PS2 numbers here are vastly undertracked. Certain people dont want to see it, though. Just like last time the DS "passed" the PS2 going by VGChartz numbers.
Jan-March 2012 Shipments -
PS2: 0.6 Million
NDS: 0.46 Million
Apr-July 2012 Shipments -
PS2: 1M to 1.1 Million. We know this, due to knowing what PS3 sold along with YoY decrease in PS3 numbers.
NDS: 0.54 Million
The PS2 outshipped the DS in the first half of 2012.

As of March 2012, Sony had shipped 155.1 Million PS2s. Add on the Apr-July figure and you get a minimum of 156.1 Million PS2s. We dont know how many Sony have shipped since. Its safe to say that Sony will have shipped at least a Million more. PS2 shipments, right now, will be no lower than 157 Million.
If PS2 has only sold 153.68 Million units, then where are the rest of the shipped PS2s? If VGChartz wants to put these numbers out as fact, along with another "DS tops PS2" article then its seriously damaging for the credibility of the numbers here.
