Sony has updated the PlayStation website to mention that the PS2 is now at a staggering 160 million units sold worldwide since its launch 24 years ago.

The PS2 clearly isn't going to let go of its astronomical sales record any time soon, as Sony has announced that a further five million of the things were somehow sold since it last reported numbers in 2012.

In fact, based on forecasts alone, the company expects the Switch to top 154 million units by April 2025, which would put it just six million units behind the PS2 at that point. Assuming it achieves these targets, we think it’s inevitable the Sony system will be eventually dethroned.
