First of all the N64 was competing with the Playstation 1, not PS2. This is a different scenario since the N64 was a previous generation system, not the same generation. Secondly, the PS2 was the number one selling console, thats why a large amount of people switched over from N64, because it was the "it" system to own and they tons of exclusive games you couldn't get on Game Cube or Xbox. Currently the PS3 in in thrid place. Also Sony has already stated that their current sales numbers for PS2 will turn into future sales numbers for PS3. How many systems are they going to claim that for? Many people only buy one system and thats it. I own all three, but I'm not most people. And for the record, the only system I really play is Xbox 360, and my PSP.
