The thing about this that kinda bothers me is that one of the major reasons the PS2 sold as well as it did was because it doubled as a DVD player. For all the younglings that don’t remember, DVD players in the early 2000’s were, at minimum, $100. Some in the $200-$300 range. Getting a console that doubled as a game system and a DVD player was the most economically sensible option for a lot of people. Factor in that a lot of games came out for the system even into the PS3’s lifespan (not huge releases, but licensed games like DBZ: Infinite World and ports of other games like Sonic Unleashed), and it’s not surprising that the PS2 was never surpassed.
sounds like someone needs to make a console that makes the most bang for a buck again, if they don't then they get shitty sales, and then they wonder why it's not selling well.
Switch is one of the fastest selling consoles and it released in 2017 and had no problem overtaking Xbox one, I even doubt they might reach soon 100 million if they keep releasing great games.
Very neat video! PS2 was so epic. There were the two different box sets. A thick box, and a slim box version. We played it lots around the 2008-2012 period. My Grandparents have the PS1.
Sony to Nintendo : U good buddy Nintendo : No, u better dude Sony : Nah stop bro, u're so nice Nintendo : I love u darling Microsoft : Hey guys, i'm also h.... Nintendo&Sony : Shut up little fellow
Was gonna say how could you skip PS2 but TBF think a lot of the games were on GC as well, GameCube was overall better probably although they both were incredible! I had both!
I would expect a significant jump in the Switch graph due to Animal Crossing: New Horizons coming out later this month. The hype (and memes!) surrounding it have been outstanding, and the love and detail put into it has the potential to make it the best title in the series and possibly one of Nintendo's all time greats.
it is crazy that 2 years later the switch has more than doubled its position here and the ps4 died off so fast that it has no hope of passing the gameboy
It won't be for long. My local retail store have stopped selling sealed 3DS and 2DSXL and there's only few games left. Since the PS5 and Xbox Series is coming, they might remove it from the shelves. I am lucky that i bought it sealed in 2018. Heck, i might be one of the last customer.

This display is so much easier to follow than the bar graphs fighting one another.
Yeah but the bar graph tells you what console has sold the best overall.
And the rate by year is very nice, you can see preferences over time.
The thing about this that kinda bothers me is that one of the major reasons the PS2 sold as well as it did was because it doubled as a DVD player.

PS2 was legendary

Yes. And one of the (major) reason Bluray won over HD-DVD was the PS3. (and also why the PS3 cost so much at launch)
They did create star wars battlefront 1 and 2 which is hands down amazing. Mine got scratch and freezes at the menu..
JPRacer77Qc and Hd dvd would have won if Microsoft didn’t balls it up with that dumb add on

Last time I was this early, Microsoft tried locking the physically bought games to your Xbox so you couldn't borrow or sell them.
2005 is a very odd place to start this...
