Sony: PlayStation Portal does not see Switch as a competitor

Introduced in August, PlayStation Portal allows users to stream games that are already installed on their PlayStation 5. Since the discontinuation of the PS Vita left many missing a portable PlayStation device, the PlayStation Portal fills that void.

However, even as a compact video game unit, Sony does not see it as a rival to the Switch. Eric Lempel, Chief of Sony Interactive Entertainment, explained his perspective in an interview with the BBC:

"It's not really comparable to the Switch. It's a unique offering specifically tailored for PlayStation users."
