Analysts explained the decrease in spending on video games by the fact that the release of the new part of Call of Duty this year took place a month earlier — on October 12. Previously, autumn releases for the Call of Duty series were scheduled for November.

Console Sales

The November Black Friday was the driver of console sales growth. Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo have each sold 1.3 million devices in the US. For the first time, three current-generation consoles sold more than 1 million units in a month. *

* The same record was set by Xbox 360, Wii and Nintendo DS in November 2010.
