I edited my post to clear up your confusion. I meant the NES had sold more units than the VCS worldwide, not the PS1. The PS1 and PS2 are the #1 and #2 best-selling home consoles of all time.

How do they compare to the Gameboy series? I know they are two different markets I am just curious. :P


I don't have recent GB numbers readily available, but the various GB iterations have racked up enormous sales figures over the past 15 years. Nintendo itself compared GBA sales to PS2 sales at its E3 2004 press conference/fanboy revival.

Nintendo announced a while back that the Gameboy and its variations sold 100 million units. It was a couple years ago. I'm sure they haven't gone very far beyond that number b/c Nintendo has been pushing the GBA and SP for the past couple years.
