US Video Game Hardware Sales Hit Decades-Low in November
US video game console sales in November dropped 27% to the lowest level in two decades, with consumers spending $695 million, amid rising prices due to tariffs, component costs, and supply chain issues. Nintendo's Switch 2 lost its sales lead to Sony's PS5, while console prices hit a record average of $439. Despite challenges, Nintendo's new games performed well, and the industry faces ongoing cost pressures from AI-driven memory shortages.
