Eric Lempel opens the blog post with a thank you to fans for their “continued support” of the PlayStation brand, while also listing off some staggering statistics regarding the total hardware and software units sold worldwide. These stats amounted to 86.1 million hardware units, and 777.9 million software units sold throughout the world.
