Japan sales will definitely be poor compared to that then. Hopefully if a PS2 mini ever happens, they do it right.

A PS2 mini is going to be way too expensive to make in reasonable costs.

 

The PS2 means dipping into DVD territory, smaller games are usually 1 gig minimum, and can go up to NINE GIGABYTES. NINE.

 

Plus the fact that we are encroaching upon more recent games that a lot of devs would charge more money for, power is also an issue at this point. My 8GB ram, i5 5th gen MacBook pro with Intel iris  6100 (a pretty decent intergrated chip) barely emulate sps2/GameCube games at 720p at full frame rate. 

All in due time, maybe 25 or 30 year anniversary for PS2.
