Hi @yo33331 Thank you for this information, I would love to see more data from Playstation and Sega, Do you happen to have these sales numbers? I would gladly add them to this list. If you look at the graph, the Gameboy sold almost 90 million units in it's second life, so it seems like it could potentially be higher than the PS2. But like I mentioned before this is a bit fussy due to the fact that the Gameboy Color is being merged with the Gameboy. Also the Wii seems like it was very similar in regards of selling more than its successor during the second life (but that is like cheating because the WiiU sold horrible amounts). And witht the gameboy asterisk, it sold way way more than the GBA did, According to this chart it sold nearly 90 million in its second life while the GBA sold 22 million in total. Anyways, thanks for pointing this out, I am sad that there is not that much data on older consoles as it would make it a lot of fun to compare them. |
This is best i've found for PS1 & PS2:
Wiki has PS2 broken down by region, though not sure how as afaik the info is taken from Sony's press releases which don't usually specify.
Historical press releases about PS from Sony: (just noticed a typo they have on there saying "software/setvices" XD )

Also think you are ok for Nintendo data, but here is some useful historical spreadsheets from Nintendo's corporate website:
