Sony shipped out another 500,000 PlayStation VR headsets during the three month period through June, making it far-and-away the industry leader when it comes to high-level virtual reality experiences.
“I‘m not entirely comfortable being the market leader in VR by such a margin that seems to be happening right now,” Andrew House, chief executive of Sony Interactive Entertainment Inc told Reuters. “With such a brand new category you want a variety of platforms all doing well to create that rising tide and create the audience.”
House also said Sony is not seeing any impact on PlayStation sales from the debut of Nintendo’s Switch system.
The playstation has been the main driver in the turn around for the Japanese conglomerate return to profitability in consumer electronics.
