The Dreamcast numbers don't seem right. The shipments on VGChartz are 9.13 million...

Only if you combine GB and GBC numbers, which is just stupid if you ask me.

GBC games work on the original GC, don't they? That's the criteria I use for determining what counts as the same, and what doesn't.

Omg, the PS2 slim is so much smaller! Different console!



GB is all iterations of it, this includes GBColor. Just like DS has lite, PS1/2 have thier redesigns, and so on.

As I stated in my first paragraph, I took sold numbers from vgcharts when I could. If I knew the data here was not in retail sold graphs, like NES or GB, I used Wikipedia. Since all of those systems are no longer available in retail, any shipped unit has obviously been sold. When Sony stops making ps2's the vgchartz 'shipped' data from the http://vgchartz.com/worldcons.php page will also be its 'sold' data.

C'mon ppl what does it matter for the purposes of this thread if PS2 is 2nd or 1st. I clearly stated Wii won't catch the top 3 anyways.

According to the folks who run the site, the 117.89 number is shipped-to-retailer (as of March 07), while 108.43 is sold-to-customer.

I do apologise if I got that wrong. I was using this page, which has the PS2 at 117.89. Does that page refer to shipped to retailer figures then? If so then all of those figures are shipped-to-retailer, in which case most of the consoles listed in the first post have shipped-to-retailer figures.

If that's not the case, and the PS2 is the only console on that page which is shipped to retailers why doesn't it say that?

Or am I missing something?


That page says at the very top "World Hardware Shipments."



GBC games are NOT compatible with the GB.

GB hardware sales should only include Game Boy and Game Boy Pocket.

 Thank you!

Last I checked, you could play GB games on the GBC, but not the other way around. It's called backwards compatibility.

And the difference between the PS2 and PS2 slim is nothing like GB and GBC. If you were trying to be cute, he beats you:
