Although Sony placed little emphasis on online gaming during its first year, all that changed because of the launch of the online-capable Xbox.
The PS2 launch seemed unimpressive and gaffe-prone, compared to the well-planned launch of the Sega Dreamcast, which was making a genuine attempt to woo developers and which had better launch titles.
There are also some disputes on the numbering for this PS2 version, since there are actually two sub-versions of the SCPH-70000.
V5 introduces minor internal changes and the only difference between V6 (sometimes called V5.1) and V5 is the orientation of the Power/Reset switch board connector, which was reversed to prevent the use of no-solder modchips.
Only a few million users had obtained consoles by the end of 2000 due to manufacturing delays.
V0 was a Japanese model and was never sold in Europe or the US.
Later, Sony gained steam with new development kits for game developers and more PlayStations for consumers.
