The very last shipment of PlayStation 2 units to Japanese retailers is out the door, and the prolific console is now discontinued in the country, nearly 13 years after its launch on March 4, 2000.

Sony’s PlayStation 3 has been on the market so long you’d think that production of the relatively ancient PS2 stopped some time ago. Well, that wasn’t true, but according to the Japanese PlayStation website, the PS2 has now officially been discontinued in the region. Japanese site Famitsu adds that shipments of the console have ended.  Therefore, once the remaining stock depletes in Japan, there’ll be no replenishment.

“The quality was amazing. It hurts to see it go. Sony must have pulled it out of production with finances and new technology in mind”, Vikke-Elmeri Malinen from Grade 10.

While the original PlayStation sits around 100 million sales, the PS2 built upon that success to sell over 150 million units worldwide and dominate its generation.
