Nintendo Switch 2 Tops US Charts in June as Hardware Spending Plummets by 62 Percent Year-Over-Year
US video game spending in June plummeted by 62% year-over-year to $383 million, largely due to the absence of a major new console launch like the previous year's Nintendo Switch 2. The Nintendo Switch 2 remained the top-selling platform in units and dollars, though its sales also declined. Despite overall spending drops, the first six months of the year saw only a one percent decrease compared to last year, with Grand Theft Auto 6's upcoming November release anticipated to boost numbers significantly.
