Hardware
PlayStation 4 was the top-selling system, but console sales continue to fall as Microsoft and Sony have saturated much of their potential market. It’s likely that some consumers are saving their hardware dollars for the Nintendo Switch that launched in March.
“The PlayStation 4 was the top-selling hardware system in the month,” said Piscatella. “And for the fifth month running, the PlayStation 4 Slim System 500GB Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End Bundle was the month’s top selling console.”
Finally, Nintendo’s dedicated handheld saw a month-over-month bump thanks to the introduction of pair of new New 3DSes, which is how you have to write that term.
“In the portable space, 3DS unit sales were up 77 percent versus January 2017 driven by the 3DS New Galaxy Style model and the 3DS Limited Pikachu Yellow model,” said Piscatella.
Next month, we’ll get a look at how the Switch shakes all of this up and how it stacks up to other console launches.
