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. *
