PS2 is an awesome system! It's my #2 system of all time behind the NES. (Switch will probably knock it down to #3 eventually though.)
I have a pretty good amount of PS2 games, and I am sure that there are a ton more great ones I missed back when it was a current system. Also, my PS2 is almost 20 years old at this point, and I've never had any issues with either the system or the controller that came with it. I still fire it up several times a year to play a PS1 or PS2 game, and the games look great on a PVM.
PS2 and NES are really what I like in a system too. I prefer having a dominant piece of hardware that gets almost all of the good games for a generation. Somehow that makes me want to collect a lot more games than I normally would. The backwards compatibility is also an awesome feature that I wish more consoles would have. Long live the PS2!
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
