PS2 still holds the record?

"Credit Suisse First Boston has reported on the week of November 18-24, which details the launch of the Nintendo GameCube and dives into the second week of the Microsoft Xbox. CSFB analysts stated that the GameCube console sold an estimated 469,000 units, which is nowhere near the statement made by Nintendo last week of over 700,000. The PS2 therefore still holds the record at 516,000 units in their first week of sales. Luigi’s Mansion topped game sales for all platforms with 257,000 units being sold. Also included in the report was that PS2 sales have increased 83% with software sales exceeding 810,000 units in that week period.

During the week of November 18-24, CSFB estimated Xbox sales at 186,000 units, which totals 556,000 units for the nine days the console has been out. The Xbox has sold a total of 1.32 million games since launch with Halo sitting on top for the week period listed at 97,000 units.

THQ’s WWF SmackDown: Just Bring It has sold a respectable 194,000 units with Harry Potter remaining number one in sales for the PSX, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance.

Game Boy sales are up an impressive 331% with the Game Boy Advance increasing 157% in sales."


Looks like it.. :fro:

I was one of those crazy gamers that stayed up all night to get a PS2 way back in Oct26 2000. :D

Yes, you can say that 2 of those 500,000 PS2\'s sold that ~day~ belonged to me and my girlfriend.

I was one of those crazy gamers that slept in and waited for the UPS truck to drive up to my door with my brand new PS2.

I should note that PS2 had no competition upon its release, whereas Cube launched right alongside Xbox. This is still fairly good news for Sony (or at least, Sony employees who like having bragging rights).

Ahh yes but if the Xbox didn\'t launch its safe to say the PS2 would be selling even better then it already is as well
