This is no good. I bought one of the backwards compatible PS3s and within a month it yellow lighted. So if that's not going to work and no more PS2s are being made, how will I play good games? D;

The PS2 is the best selling console of all time, you'll be able to find one even after they stop producing them.
I thought that title belonged to the NDS.

he meant home consoles
but in terms of handhelds, it's the 3ds
outsold the amount of PS3s and xbox 360s this year

in the interest of records, Wii U had a better launch than PS3 and Xbox 360 (but none of the companies at the time were able to keep up with the demands)

Sweet. Too bad my asshat of a brother decided to claim ownership of my PS2 and is trying to sell it on Craigslist for $20.
Like what the fuck.

He thinks he's entitled to it because my mom originally bought him a PS3 but didn't buy any games, then realized that was a stupid idea and returned it and got a PS2 instead. It was meant to be shared, then I took ownership because after a while I was the only one who played it, because he was stupid enough to get rid of his games. But it's apparently his, since the original gift (the PS3) was for him.
/sigh

He seems silly, $20 is a rather small amount to sell it for. Can you buy it from him?

According to wiki all models of the PS2 combined comes to 155.1 million units as of March 2012 (source is sony.net). All models of the NDS come to 152.5 million (source is nintendo.co.jp) so going by that the PS2 still trumps the NDS even if you ignore that one is a handheld and one is a home console. I expect that figure will eventually be overtaken though.
