SCEE president and CEO Jim Ryan noted at the conference that the figure is based on units &amp;lsquo;sold through&amp;rsquo; to consumers, as opposed to those bought in by retailers. It was also mentioned that the PS4 has reached this monumental sales figure is less than nine months making the console (which initially launched in November 2013) one of the fastest selling in history.
