| LethalP said: Jesus Christ (our saviour), there are still people who pedal the notion that the PS2 sold so well because of it's DVD player. The thing reached 100 million units in 2005, by then Blu-ray players were out and DVD players were $40. It went on to sell another 55 million units after that, was that because it played DVD's or because it had by far the best game library of any console to date for cheap? I'd say the latter. |
I think you are taking things out of context, nobody is saying PS2 wouldnt have a been a huge success without a DVD player, they are just saying it was a big contributing factor.
Early on in its life a console that doubled as a DVD player right out of the box was a big deal in the major markets like US, Europe, Japan and later on in its life it was a big deal for developing countries.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
