The NPD Group has released their full North American sales data for the biggest shopping month of the year, but this November’s numbers weren’t particularly thrilling. Consumers spent $2.25 billion on games and hardware, down 19 percent compared to November 2018. Despite plenty of great sales, hardware sales were down 26 percent year on year. Nintendo Switch was again #1, gaining sales year-on-year, but the PS4 and Xbox One continue to limp along.

November was a solid month for new releases with Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order coming in at #2, various versions of Pokemon Sword and Shield coming in at #3, #4, and #5, and Death Stranding and Need for Speed Heat both arguably falling slightly short of expectations at #7 and #8 respectively. It should also be noted, that if you combined all the versions of Pokemon Sword and Shield together, it would actually be the #2 game on the list – in fact, this was the biggest launch month for a Pokemon game ever.
