It goes without saying that 2020 has been a wild year for all, and video games have certainly been no exception to the rule. As the\u00a0video game industry produced a $90 billion economic output<\/a> for the United States in 2019 and continues to set even\u00a0more records in 2020,\u00a0it’s clear that the industry is well along a path of recent growth.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although\u00a0the Nintendo Switch was experiencing mass shortages<\/a> at the initial height of the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic back in March, production of the console has ramped back up, allowing for eager consumers\u00a0to get their hands on the hybrid handheld-home gaming console once again. Unfortunately, this is not something that can be said for the recently released PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S\u00a0this past November.<\/p>\n

American market research company NPD Group has revealed its market analytics of\u00a0video game spending trends\u00a0last month, revealing a 35% increase in consumer spending when compared to November 2019. However, most notably, the Nintendo Switch<\/a> led the market in hardware units sold this November, despite the release of the new next-gen consoles taking place the same month.<\/p>\n
