Nintendo Switch and Call of Duty Top December NPD Ranking; PS4 Is Best-Selling Console of the Decade

It’s that time of the month again, which means that the NPD released its data about the U.S. gaming market related to December 2019.

Once more analyst Mat Piscatella delivers the news. 

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare was the best-selling game of the month for the third consecutive month. 

Star Wars: Jed Fallen Order is once again the second best-selling game of the month and it’s now Respawn Entertainment’s best-selling game of all time. 

Nintendo Switch was once again the best-selling platform of the month and of the year, while the PS4 is the best-selling platform of the decade.

The same thing extends to accessories, with the Switch Pro Controller being the best-selling accessory of the year and the black DualShock 4 being the best-selling accessory of the decade.

Below you can check out all the relevant charts including best-sellers for the year and the decade, also split by platform.

Inevitably, the best-selling game of the decade in the U.S. is Grand Theft Auto V, but there certainly is a lot of Call of Duty in that table.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
