Gamecube - over 1.1 million games sold
Xbox - over 500,000 games sold
It doesnt say ps2 numbers though, but it says ps2 sales are strong. Also, Super Mario Sunshine and Super Smash Bros Melee were two of the highest selling games last year in France. I want to translate the whole article, but i dont think the mods would like that.

"Je ne sais pas ce qu'ils disent au sujet du Français!"
Whoever "they" are, I'm not sure why they would say what they say about the French in French. Hmm...I hadn't thought about that before typing it. Ah well.
Or, as Ben Franklin said (some say old Tom Jefferson said it, but I wasn't actually there, so...), "Every man has two countries, and one of them is France."
Maybe Nintendo should buy France. And then they could change their name to "Le Nintendo" or "L'Enfantin." Just kidding on that last one. If you're wondering what it means, look at the word long enough and it'll come to you. ;-) Okay, I'm going to stop now.

I didn't actually check out the link before but ... uh. DOOFUS!. It's not 1.1mill GC's, it's 1.1mill games for GC. That's still impressive compared to Xbox's 500k. But it's not hardware, it's software. Again. DOOOOOOFUS.
*hits game_freak333 in the head with a shovel* you even fooled ME doofus.

I think everyone thought you were quoting console sales in France.

Simple!!! Get someone to sound and look like Jerry Lewis in advertising. Afterall, the French do love Jerry Lewis movies.

I'd act out a little commercial if I was more sure of who Stiller is. Wasn't he Costanza's dad in Seinfeld?

Yeah, Jerry Stiller played George's dad in Seinfeld.
