PS2 Finally Passes 150 Million Units Sold

According to a tweet from the official PlayStation Twitter account, the PS2 has finally sold 150 million units worldwide.

The tweet was: “Best selling. Console. Ever. Tonight, PlayStation 2 passes 150 million units sold worldwide. What are your top PS2 games?”

For a few years the PlayStation 2 was close to hitting the 150 million mark but today, Sony has confirmed that the milestone was indeed broken.

Its closest rival is the Nintendo DS which has close to 145 million units thus far according to latest data from Nintendo. The data include all iterations of the DS however.

Nevertheless, Sony can celebrate the fact that the PlayStation 2 is the best selling console of all time.
