And I thought it couldn’t get any worse for Sony.  According to NPD’s most recent numbers the PS2 outsold the PS3 by about 45k units in April.  The PS3 sold around 127,000 to PS2’s 172,000 which secured them the 5th and 6th spots in the console wars.  A price drop is the ‘official’ explanation.  Who the hell was waiting for the PS2 to drop to $100 before buying one?
