It’s 12 years old which in technology terms is a “relic” but the good old Sony PS2 which was one of the original gaming consoles is still selling well.

Sony Computer Entertainment said overnight that the PS2 console reached the 150 million unit milestone worldwide on Jan. 31, 2011, 12 years into the platform’s launch.
PlayStation2 features a library of more than 10,828 software titles, and more than 1.52 billion units of PlayStation2 software have been sold worldwide.
PlayStation2 was credited with delivering intuitive game play through the Dualshock 2 controller and the Eye Toy USB camera, released in 2003.
The EyeToy Camera allows players to physically interact within the game by having their images projected to the TV monitor in real time.
It also tracks the users’ hands or body movement for a new style of game play.
PlayStation2 was also the first home computer entertainment system to integrate DVD technology.
