Based mostly on the quarterly fiscal reports from Nintendo/Sony. The last official update for PS2 sales was a year before it was discontinued, while digging for data I came to the conclusion that PS2 sold at least 158.6m units lifetime, thread for how I came to this conclusion is here: PS2 shipments over 158.6m, breaking down missing fiscal data. (vgchartz.com)
The graph looks like a sharp uptick for ps2 at the end because I set the 158.6m figure on the same date production of the PS2 was discontinued, when shipped figures are given when they are shipped to retailer which is after the manufacturing date. For example, DS was discontinued at some point in 2013, but DS still shipped some more units after December 2013.
