PS2 Sales Slump

On the eve of the US launch of Sony’s Playstation 2, Ps2.ign.com have posted some recent sales figures in Japan which show a steady decrease in the number of units going from the shelves into the homes.

Sales by month

March 969,177
April 512,953
May 227,725
June 298,880
July 367,190
August 223,822
September 157,613
Total 2,757,360

While the console waits for a killer ap to come along and boost its sales, with the recent news that Metal Gear Solid 2 will also be appearing on the X-Box and Squaresoft having reportedly requested dev kits for both Microsoft’s console and the Gamecube, the titles that lead Sony to prominence in the late 90’s could very well be about to slip away…(the crowd goes wild).
