Ahh I see... Well it must be something good or he won't still be there. But I'm glad that I discovered him today!I don't know exactly what he do at Sony, but according to his profile :

The chart doesn't say total , it says.I understand that but it would be weird to have it at "more than 87.4 million" and it actually was in the 88 millions instead. Why include the .4?
Also the system says last PS3 produced but from what I remember but the PS3 didn't end production until October of 2016 in North America and in mid 2017 in Japan:
Sony PlayStation 3 ends shipments, fulfilling 10-year promise
Shipments have stopped in Japan for the PS3, which outlived its original planned 10-year lifespan.www.cnet.com
However maybe what Sony meant by ending productions was storing PS3's in warehouses? I don't know, There is no region that ended production in June of 2016 so I just find it weird.
What is weird is that Sony announced the PS3 ended production in North America in October of 2016 and in Japan in May of 2017 but the last console was produced in June of 2016? That is what I am trying to figure out. Maybe it some weird thing where they are still producing parts for consoles after June of 2016 for repairs but usually Sony announces that separately like with the PS2 ending production in 2013 but ending repairs in 2018:The chart doesn't say total , it says.
At date sold at least y.
Getting accurate sale globally is difficult.
Its not weird.
Even with the figure of 87.4 million, we knew that the PS3 finished ahead of the 360.That confirms it beat Xbox 360, where lifetime sales estimates range from 84-85.7m.
