Not only has the handheld’s sales already exceeded the company’s expectations, it continues to sell in major markets including the U.S. Circana revealed that PlayStation Portal was February 2024’s best-selling accessory in the country in terms of dollar sales. PlayStation Portal sales helped boost accessories spending in the U.S. According to Circana’s Mat Piscatella, accessories spending grew by 25% in the U.S. during the month of February, helped by a 14% increase in spending on gamepads and remote play devices (the latter of which includes PlayStation Portal).
