Not that being down in JP, EU and US means anything. As proof, PS2 was down in JP, EU and US, yet it apparently was up YOY?

PS2 was practically discontinued in all those regions ages ago.

Then why was it up YOY?

The same argument could be made for PS3 sales

Because of Q1. Unless you think PS3 sold the majority of those 3.4m which would just be ridiculous. Sony are still shipping PS2's (I think Ethomaz said something like that?) Sony have simply tallied PS2 and put all those systems in Q1 so they won't be counted in any future quarers regardless of what they're still sending out.

Got a source for that? That sounds like wild speculation to me. Why wouldn't I think the majority of the 3.4m were PS3s? 1.70m+ is a majority

Don't need a source, PS3 has shown to be down YOY everywhere this year, and the last 2 shipments prove it. Even if Q1 was flat yoy (1.9) (won't have been) that's 1.5m PS2's, which is obviously an anomoly for Q1.

The previous Q1 for PS2 + PS3 was 2.5m
