September NPD video game software sales rose 31%, says Piper Jaffray
September NPD video game software sales were up 31% year-over-year due to the launch of Destiny 2 from Activision Blizzard (ATVI), the second biggest title of the month, Piper Jaffray analyst Michael Olson tells investors in a research note. He notes the top title for the month was NBA 2K18 from Take-Two Interactive (TTWO). The analyst says Activision is tracking well ahead of his estimates and consensus, while Electronic Arts (EA) and Take-Two are slightly lagging. Olson keeps an Overweight rating on all three names.

- Software Sales were up 31% YOY.
- NBA 2K18 was the best selling title, while Destiny 2 was 2nd.

Holy bleep, Destiny 2 couldn't outsell NBA? Yikes.
