PlayStation 2 reaches 30 million
Unstoppable Sony coincidentally hits magic number in GameCube launch week.
Sony Computer Entertainment has announced that it has sold a staggering 30 million PlayStation 2 consoles worldwide.
This incredible figure, achieved in less than two years on global sale, demonstrates Sony’s huge dominance in the market place. It’s perhaps worth remembering at this point that Sony is offering a DVD player for £199 that is also the leading games machine in the market. It really is as simple as that. The global PS2 breakdown goes like this: 11.3 million sold in North America, 9.9 million units in Japan and the rest of Asia, and 8.8 million units in Europe.
We are sure that the fact that this was achieved during the European launch of the Nintendo GameCube is purely coincidental.
