December 2019, The NDP Group had dropped their full North American sales data. However, the month wasn’t as quite cheery as it could’ve been for the industry. Because consumers spent over $2.98 billion on hardware and games dropped down to 15 percent compared to December 2018.

While there were great bundles on offer, the sales (hardware) did go down 17 percent year on year. At that time, Nintendo Switch was again #1 for the month, accruing sales year-on-year, but excluding Xbox One and PlayStation 4, which took the bottom representing the hardware sales.

Meanwhile, on the software section, no recent games got to the top 20. However, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare extended its streak at #1 up to three months, with Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order taking #2 position again. Then good ol’ reliable Madden and NBA 2K fought to get to the #3 and #4 position respectively.

Also, Luigi’s Mansion 3 boosted to the #5 position. As for Pokemon Sword and Shield, it followed suit, but Death Stranding fell from the list entirely.
