100 million PlayStations sold

Sony's first foray into the console arena hits a McDonald's-worthy volume milestone.

A decade after its release, the original PlayStation has reached a milestone worthy of Ronald McDonald's high-volume burger empire. Sony announced today that, as of Tuesday, it has sold 100 million units of its first console worldwide. While Sony trumpeted the fact PlayStation is now available in 120 countries, it only broke down its sales by three regions--North America (39.67 million units), Europe (39.61 million units), and Japan (20.72 million units).
