PS2 selling 50K consoles per week world-wide and >200K software. That's a healthy sales position for a console thats 70 years old (in doggy years).

so basically he said the ps2 cant last forever. i think im ready to become a 6-figure-income analyst
Madden will do under 300k on PS2, Jak under 150k, Motorstorm 2 bombed on PS3, no reason to believe it will do well on PS2. The soccer games will do alright though.
For the March 2010 year, Sony platform games will be ~225m figure (they forecast 240m), Nintendo system games will ship 400m (more if the Wii price cut is real), and 360 games will ship 150m or someting. Four perecent of all of that is still over 30m games. I think it will be a bit higher than that but PS2 software is rapidly declining now. I don't think that more than 20 million PS2 owners are still actively buying software.

I honestly don't think so...
All patcher does is make predictions :|. Why give him attention guys.

I bet the vast majority of PS2 games being bought are either used or deeply discounted. Few people seem to be picking up full priced new releases on the PS2
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
— Pat Buchanan – A Republic, Not an Empire
It is expected. PS2 has had a great life. Its life will probably end 2012.
Pachter is such an imbecile
No, really? A nine year old console's software sales are going to drop with three competitors that receive more, and better, games, with better technology? Now Pachter is just being ridiculous.
Is he sick of being wrong or something? Lately, he's just predicted REALLY obvious stuff. The PS2's software sales are already irrelevant.
