Sony: 3DS Sales Proving That There Is A Dedicated Market For Handhelds
Sony Computer Entertainment of Europe bossman Jim Ryan has stated that outstanding Nintendo 3DS sales prove that there is a dedicated market for handheld gaming.
Speaking to
MCV in a recent interview, Ryan said;
“One of the encouraging things about 3DS’ sales performance at Christmas is that it is confounding the naysayers who say that there is no room in the market for a dedicated handheld gaming device,” he said.
“And to that extent we were encouraged by how 3DS did over the last month.”
Ryan stated that the PS Vita certainly can co-exist with the 3DS.
“There are two distinct markets. The quality, the immersiveness, the richness of the experience that we believe we are going to offer on Vita, way exceeds anything that we believe to be available on any smartphone.”
Ryan's interview comes nearly one month ahead of the US and European launch of the PS Vita on February 22.
