It had an enormous library, and that directly relates to number 2... the ps2 was so poorly built, that many people bought several of them, because they died so damn often. When you have a huge library of titles, the only option left is to buy another, I was one of those. It's the reason sony lost a huge class action lawsuit, the ps2 was built like garbage. The ps4, is the opposite, it's solidly built, and won't have one person buy 2, 3 or 4 of them. |
The 360 was like that. I knew a lot of people who just bought a new one instead of getting the one they had repaired. I think the reason the ps2 did as well as it did is because of it's game library like you mentioned, how long the console was supported and lack of solid competition.
