I don't get why Sony doesn't reveal the PS2's full sales numbers and just leaves it at the 2012 figure even though it still sold til 2013.

I get Sony probably did it at the time to make PS3 annual sales numbers in 2012/2013 look better by combining the PS2 sales with the PS3's sales and not revealing the number of PS2's sold, but we're well past that point when the PS3's numbers already been confirmed at this point. It wouldn't hurt Sony at all to reveal that the PS2 sold higher than its 155M figure, not sure why they're still so secretive about it, if anything it'll help their case as the bestselling console ever especially with the Switch now potentially coming close to that 155M figure.

I agree.

They also need to update and confirm the PSP ones (82.5M), the PS3 ones (yes, I am sure that till the end of 2017 and even maybe 2018 there were some more units sold such maybe to round it to 87.5M or even 88M, the PS4 ones, since again there were sold units in the second half of 2022, 2023, and even some now in 2024.
