My fellow vgchartzerz, sony has confimed 160m in their anniversary site.
Also, they round down the nunbers, example 102m ps1, instead of 102.49, ps3 87 instead of 87.5,ps4 117 instead of 117.2
Hence,probably ps2 lifetime sales are exceeding considerably 160m.
What's boggling is that they dont show the psp sales, which was a great success (close to ps3) , to not extrapolate ps vita sales...

How did they confirm it though? By posting an ambiguous number on their site? I still dont understand how this is confirmation of anything.

I'm somewhat substantiating it already.

They present the total sales of PS1, PS3, PS4  rounded down, not the exact number, while also hiding psp sales, they could obfuscate ps2 sales too if they wanted.

I admit it's hard to be believed that they shipped 5m in the 13th year, it seems so extraordinary , but they could have also overshipped produced units in row markets, it's no secret you could find brand new ps2 in Brazil in 2015, while ps3 was nowhere to be found.

Nintendo can pretty much implement the same method in Europe for NS for the current 10th year, which sadly is the last one for that market.
