Has anyone told them that PS2 games are not selling at all anymore, and PS2 console sales are in a nosedive?
What a pointless article.

"A lot of what is important now, is the tie ratio of software to hardware, and that tie ratio is significant... it goes anywhere from 11 to about 20 in terms of that tie ratio, so you're looking to everyone doing well there."
Claiming that almost 25 percent of 2008 NPD TRST sales came from PS2 game sales, "the PS2 consumer is still actively purchasing games. Greatest Hits, in a tough economic time like we're in now, which has a proven value message, at $19.99." - a big claim maybe? but that would suggest PS2 games sales are decent still. And shifting thier 50 millionth PS2 is a pretty big landmark in any book. How many 360's are out there? ;-)
But isn't it just the case that there are lots of PS2s hanging around from the last generation, and therefore PS2 game sales still make up a large proportion of total sales?
Unless you have numbers to show that new PS2 hardware sales are also beating the 360 etc.
The sales numbers for consoles (hardware) was released for the Norwegian market 2008 the other day. Wii won over PS3 by a large margin, which is not surprising(although PS3 sells very well on the name over here, a shame really). But what was surprising, was that the 360 was not included in the statistics, as Microsoft has refused to reveal their sales numbers.

@ Dr.Spike, yeah i'm sure the new sales of PS2 is pretty small compared to the current gen. Still unless you are talking the Wii, a console's success can be measured by software sales. The PS2 is holding it's own in the company of the current gen, which i don't find surprising looking at it's range of games.
@ Nikolai, strange for MS to not release their sales figures? especialy as they usualy do well, especialy compared to the PS3. Anyway i got this article on the crazy european fascination with the Wii:
Well if you have a PS2, that can play PS1 games too. PS3 doesn't have reverse compatibility and it doesn't have a lot of games out yet. Maybe that's the reason?
PS3 can play PS1 and PS2 titles. Or, it could until a few months back. That version is now out of production, officially that is.

the 360 outsold the PS2 by 3 to 1 in December in the US. Thats not PS2 beating the 360, but its not exactly the PS2 not selling either.
to look at it another way, the difference in sales between total HD console sales and Wii sales was far smaller than total PS2 sales.
