Forums - Sales - PS2 shipped more than xbox 360 last quarter (1.7 m vs 1.5 m) - thoughts?

good job for sony, loose on the ps3 win on the ps2, will the ps3 sell like this when the ps4 is out, probably.



Being in 3rd place never felt so good

I'm also starting to doubt the DS can sustain a passing of the PS2 *if* the 3DS comes out this Fall versus next Spring. PS2s are just now getting sent to other countries that never saw one, will Nintendo do the same with the DS? I doubt it, and for that reason if PS2 keeps getting sent to developing countries over the next few years it should regain It's lead over the DS.

It's a shame that the PS2 will be dead in the water outside of Sports games pretty soon, unless we get some surprise announcements at E3.

Yeah, PS2 best system ever pretty much in terms of sales and content.



It's just that simple.

No, anyone doubting the DS passing the PS2 isn't looking at the numbers correctly. The DS has been selling 30mil a year, and it's now only about 15 million away from the PS2. 3DS released or not, it will not take a ~70% YoY sales dip when its successor comes out, which is essentially what needs to happen for the PS2 to retain its lead.

I don't see the PS2 getting any higher than 160mil, while the DS is easily going to clear that mark.



NINA!



PS2/P/3 were officially launched in Vietnam and the Philippines in Q1. Although the Philippines was right at the very end of the quarter.

PS2 is a good console. I still play it some times.



I'm going to laugh if the 360 dies before PS2 is off the market.
