How much did PS2 sell after PS3 launched?

PS3 may do half of that.

If that number > 20 Million

Then YESSSS!!!!!!!

I sure hope it does...don't want Playstation home consoles to lose their 100 Million streak

PS2 shipped around 118m in fiscal year ending march 2007 (official numbers), so i suppose around 110-115m when PS3 launched. So if PS2 shipped around 160m in the end, Sony shipped around 50-45m PS2 along PS3....So there you have it.

Thank you!

So halving PS2's post PS3 sales gives us 22-25 Million

So PS3 would have to be selling at half the rate of the PS2

Anyway this gets harder for PS3 as it had a longer lifecycle & the PS4 is beating PS3 out of the gate (which is a reversal of PS3's launch where the PS2 still outsold it for a year).

On the other hand the PS3 still has the magic $99 to drop to...
