Okay, folks, let's move on to other platforms.
It seems the Switch is almost catching up with the immortal PlayStation 2.
The most interesting thing is that they're now counting 160 million PS2 consoles.

From what I always knew, the number was 155 million.

But what do you think? Will the PS2 be surpassed?

The extra 5 million is probably from Brazil sales they had to add many years after hehe.

The world is more populated now, it makes sense the newer consoles that are actually popular will surpass it.

It probably wasn't our fault.

Unlike the GameCube, I don't remember a single year when it wasn't better to go to Paraguay, import officially or use the black market than to buy the version manufactured here. Most sales are in other countries, both directly and indirectly.

The rest of the sales here must be very well accounted for. Sony has always had a strong presence in my country.

And remember that the Walkman was invented by a Brazilian...

And I think Sony decided to include those disassembled PS2s for the creation of missiles or something related.

But I also read somewhere recently that the origin of the increase is in the website commemorating the console's anniversary. But I can't confirm that.
