Many players have unfavorable opinions about PlayStation Portal, but sales results indicate that despite all the controversies, there is no shortage of people willing to buy new equipment designed for PlayStation 5. The device is very popular, among others, in Spain.
PlayStation Portal is a device that allows you to play games from PlayStation 5. To work, we need a console and a strong Internet connection due to the use of the Remote Play function.
Since the official announcement, PS Portal has been met with negative reception, meanwhile there are many players who decide to purchase Sony’s proposal. We systematically hear about equipment being sold out in more countries, and the latest data from Spain is quite interesting.
Gamereactor.es reported that PS5 has had its “best week” since its launch in recent days. Customers bought as many as 32,000 devices in seven days, which is a really high result on the analyzed market and confirms one thing – numerous promotions prepared by the manufacturer make more people choose PlayStation 5.
PS5 in Spain has already passed a milestone – Sony has sold 1 million PlayStation 5s in this market since its launch.
It turns out that PlayStation Portal achieved sales of 5,700 units in its debut week. This is a very good result – for comparison, 6,000 Nintendo Switches and only 2,000 Xbox Series X|S were purchased in the indicated period. Moreover, PlayStation VR2 achieved sales of 8,000 units during its premiere, but the editor of Gamereactor.es emphasized that players had already forgotten about the goggles and stopped buying them.
The good result and popularity of PlayStation Portal in Spain may indicate a similar situation in other markets. However, we are waiting for official data from Sony.
