September video game sales drop 8 percent
The Associated Press 10:55:34PM (ET) Thursday,October 14,2010. NEW YORK (AP) — In grim news for video game companies, market researcher NPD Group says U.S. retail sales of game hardware, software and accessories fell 8 percent in September to $1.2 billion. The NPD Group said Thursday game hardware sales tumbled 19 percent to $383 million, as fewer people bought Wii and PlayStation 3 consoles. Software sales were also down, even though Microsoft Corp.'s blockbuster "Halo: Reach" sold 3.3 million units. Game accessories, meanwhile, saw an uptick, boosted by Sony Corp.'s new Move motion controller. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- * My take at this time ? I believe the attention was on back to school sales as the summer ends. Don't think the panic button should be pushed. The Holiday shopping season is near...sales should pick up. *
