    The criteria for the article I posted is the time from the day it hits shelves to the day they stop producing the console.

    They stopped making PS2's already though, so what is in the world now is the most there ever will be.

    Not surprised Nintendo is in the top 5 as they keep their console for quite a long time before introducing a new one compared to other companies.

    4: Nintendo Gameboy (14 years)

    Still got my Gameboy Colour and my 5 Pokemon Gameboy games which are still working .

    Well being know as the best selling console ever (over 155 Million sold), I can only imagine it to reach the 160M margin by end of life.
