Nintendo will release a new console next year in the form of the Switch.
It's a unique system that has at-home and on-the-go elements. Now, an executive at rival PlayStation has spoken out to share his thoughts on it.PlayStation Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida told DigitalSpy that he thinks it's a "very unique system."
"It's very interesting that they've designed the system to work well with more conventional games in terms of inputs and buttons," Yoshida said.
"So I think it's good for core gamers and their marketing message focused on that."
Asked if Sony views Nintendo as a competitor in the hardware space, Yoshida replied, "I think they're going to cover a new market for themselves."
Yoshida is not the only executive of a competing company to share his thoughts on the Switch. On the day that the console was officially announced,
