PS2 still being sold

Post by RCBH928 »

I went to check how is the ps2 is doing, looks like it is still in retail after 5 years from moving to the ps3 for the great price of $100!!

Do you see them in store and do they still their games like in Walmart and other stores? I think I am going to pick myself one at this price, looking to find a moded one. I never owned a ps2

I have not seen any new PS2s for a while, but they are out there. You definitely should try a PS2, there are so many varieties of games to discover. Get a fat PS2 for the convenience of an internal hard drive installed with PS2 games. 8)

I can't remember if there were any PS2 consoles, but there are still some games in my Wal*Mart.

My Walmarts still stock PS2s. And everytime they run out, they order more of them, so people are still buying those things (even though they are over-priced at $100 IMO.)

I can tell you that the Best Buy, KMart, Walmart near me all keep PS2's in stock. And at least the Best Buys and Kmart continue to stock a good amount of games.

I actually love still seeing PS2 games on the shelves of major retailers. I don't know how to explain it, but I get a sort of "good for PS2!" feeling when I see them. :lol:
