Post by: Gta3_Mafia on May 10, 2002, 11:32:52 AM: Quote
Sony\'s plans for World Domination continue! SCEI has announced that worldwide shipments of the Playstation 2 console have reached 30 million units. The breakdown by region are:

North America
(Sony Computer Entertainment America Inc.) - 11.3 million units
Japan/Asia
(Sony Computer Entertainment Japan) - 9.9 million units
Europe/PAL
(Sony Computer Entertainment Europe Limited) - 8.8 million units

"PlayStation has delivered on its entertainment promise to consumers, and, in turn, our growing loyal fan base continues to propel the platform to unprecedented heights," said Kaz Hirai, president and chief operating officer, Sony Computer Entertainment America Inc. "Even after a pivotal year for the gaming industry in 2001, we remain confident about our opportunities for continued growth. As an illustration of the demand for PlayStation 2, we announced in February 2002 that the company had shipped 26 million units worldwide. Now, as of May 5, 2002, just three months later, we have shipped 30 million units worldwide."

Sony\'s plan to install computer chips in the brains of the world\'s human population will be revealed at this year\'s E3.

Post by: Simchoy on May 14, 2002, 07:18:41 PM: 100 million? Doubt it. Now, it might get pretty close to that number given how much Sony is dominating, but not to the point that it will reach that number. Especially if the PS3 is supposed to be out by 2005.

Also, while competition isn\'t making huge strives as of yet, they will still be around to take some market share that will also prevent Sony from reaching 100 million. Though I guess, its not impossible for Sony to hit that number.
