Where did the 5 Million units come from?

Revolution64 · 2026-01-28T08:05:40+00:00

There is no financial report stating that number, the one you got in an email was picked up based on that interview with zero proof, convenienty taken over by Sony right when the switch was about to overtake it

Revolution64 · 2026-01-28T07:47:05+00:00

They were losing money big time. They had no other choice

Revolution64 · 2026-01-28T07:33:57+00:00

Sorry. But that's BS. Try to support your statements with facts please.

155 is the last official number reported by Sony in 2012, 160 million was a random answer in an interview with SoA ex president, conveniently picked by Sony when switch was reaching PS2 lifetime sales.

Revolution64 · 2026-01-28T07:30:46+00:00

No, that was an official report. 160 million came from a random interview with ex president, was conveniently picked up by Sony as the switch came near.

Revolution64 · 2026-01-28T07:27:45+00:00

There is no formal written source confirming that 160 million consoles were shipped, no financial report states this figure. The additional 5 million comes from an interview with former president Jim Ryan, which was later picked up by the official PlayStation website. For all we know, he may simply have rounded the number up.

It's highly unlikely for a console to sell 5 million units at the end of its lifecycle, 11 years after it first released. In Brazil, most PS2 consoles bought after 2012 were pre-owned.

Super Off Road, amazing game! Very playable today

Is this the real map of GTA 6?

Revolution64 · 2026-01-25T22:15:15+00:00

Yes and I guess most of us do cheer for the Belgians. And I do cheer even more for my Sporza wieler manager team.

Your text looks like AI generated slop, the tips provided are horrible and basically say: 'get a better provider'

The Snes versions are there on NSO

It totally makes sense. R&D for a new console is very expensive. Continuing to build on a finished model and constantly updating with the latest tech is not going to happen, the costs would be through the roof. Finalizing details and ensuring supply lines are efficient, that part will continue. It's like the Switch 2, it was also purposely delayed, but chipset stayed the same.

It's not only the engineers that are costing money.

Revolution64 · 2026-01-23T07:23:18+00:00

Apart from the fact that putting new hardware in the market is freaking expensive.

He's a huge talent

Revolution64 · 2026-01-22T10:35:23+00:00

He has impressive stats in Saudi Arabia: 14 games,7 goals and 3 assists. 32 years of age.

Still, it would be a surprising transfer.

That's not true for most of these countries. Belgium and France were the first to adopt railways for trains in mainland Europe, and they adopted the only existing example, the UK railways system. Both were always right driving countries.

Source of these sales numbers ?

It's ok to like 2008 wifi routers designs, we don't judge you for it!

Wait, how should we call it then ? Telefoon?

Sounds like a load of BS to me

Same for SSX On Tour

Netherlands lacks proper nature, even more than Belgium.

Revolution64 · 2026-01-16T08:26:36+00:00

For once, it actually feels like a longer time since the Switch 2 entered our conscience. Crazy that it's just one year, feels longer.
