Sony confirms PS2 has sold over 160 million

So turns out the former president of SIE who will have had access to the sales data wasn't rounding up after all as some claimed. They shouldn't have waited this long to finally update the sales total but nice to at last get a confirmation of it reaching 160m though it's still annoying they finally updated it but didn't give an exact number to fully settle things. At least the range has been significantly shortened and Zhuge says while the theoretical maximum is 161.8m it's definitely below that so I expect it to be around 160.5m.

It was rounding after all ... He said 160M. Like exactly. Sony said over. What are the chances PS2 sold exactly 160.000.000 ? So it's rounding. But rounding down, not up.

To be more clear I meant that since he had access to the sales data it wouldn't have made sense for him to say 160m if it never reached that unless it was literally like 100k less or something like that. Rounding down is right though and as I said earlier since he said 160m and not over 160m I think it's almost guaranteed it's below 161m so the range is thankfully really small now.

What's your reasoning for this? You must surely have good evidence of them lying.
