PS2 shipped 100 million in 5 years and 9 months. When will PS4 do the same?

Considering we aligning only launches (not each region) it can, if we were to launch each region as if they released WW at once then no chance.

This weird maths again...... I just can't understand it.

From launch day to 5yr 9 months in to its life the PS2 sold 100M consoles.

Why the hell does it matter if it released in this region or that? It staggered its release across regions because they simply could not make enough consoles to meet demand across all regions. I don't get the confusion here. 

Its like we are saying... If they could only make 5M consoles in one year and 20M people wanted to buy it..... it doesn't matter where or how many regions they released... they would have still sold only 5M consoles.

Ca someone please explain this region sales nonsense to me and how it affects the overall amount of consoles a platform sells?

I didn't say we have to do it.

I said that if we use normal alignment PS4 shall reach it faster, but if we align the 3 major regions then PS4 won't do it. Just that.
