SUMMARY:Sony PS2 NA Release (2000)

DESCRIPTION:\nThe PS2 was launched in March 2000 in Japan\, October in N
	orth America and November in Europe. Sales of the console\, games and acce
	ssories pulled in $250 million on the first day\, beating the $97 million 
	made on the first day of the Dreamcast. Directly after its release\, it wa
	s difficult to find PS2 units on retailer shelves due to manufacturing del
	ays. Another option was purchasing the console online through auction webs
	ites such as eBay\, where people paid over a thousand dollars for the cons
	ole. The PS2 initially sold well partly on the basis of the strength of th
	e PlayStation brand and the console's backward compatibility\, selling ove
	r 980\,000 units in Japan by March 5\, 2000\, one day after launch. This a
	llowed the PS2 to tap the large install base established by the PlayStatio
	n — another major selling point over the competition. Later\, Sony added
	 new development kits for game developers and more PS2 units for consumers
	. The PS2's built-in functionality also expanded its audience beyond the g
	amer\, as its debut pricing was the same or less than a standalone DVD pla
	yer. This made the console a low cost entry into the home theater market.\
