Forums - Nintendo - PS2 will remain the best selling console of all time by the end of this gen

While DS don't make a turn around it is impossible to it outsell the PS2.

DS needs to ship more units per quarter than PS2 but what is happening today is PS2 shipping more units than DS.

The gap increased in over 500k in the last two quarters.

Source? I haven't seen any evidence of this without you including your own speculation, so just wait for the shipment figures to come.

thanks to the DVD inside the console...



Just like the Bluray player helped the PS3 win this generation, right?

DVD actually became popular, Bluray not so much.



Why are people comparing DS with PS2? The Ops original post stated that "the PS2 will remain the best selling console." The Op didn't  say anything about a handheld. The DS is the best selling handheld--to date, but it should not be compared to a console.

Anyone who keeps comparing the two in this thread is just a troll that wants to instill an argument that was never in the core of what the OP intended.

Looks like neither of you know what a "console" is. PS2 is a HOME console and DS is a HANDHELD console which means they are very comparable, since all he said was "best selling console."



Big P

You don't know anyone that owns a PS3? Wtf

@phenom and others: I see no problem with comparing PS2 to DS. Just makes PS2 seem even more impressive, considering it is and will be for a long time #1 of all consoles.

No it doesn't, it makes the PS2 look like it sold like crap lol. What the PS2 did in 12 years is what the DS did in like 7 years. On top of that Ninty doesn't even have it released in as many countries making the PS2 look like even more of a bad seller. What exactly looks more impressive about the PS2 when compared to the DS?

Does it matter? Blu-Ray became popular. I proved you wrong, but it's okay, my dead phenom. It's okay to be wrong

Yea accept it never became popular lol. How am I dead lol.
