Week 47

First tidbits

Full reports



When we check out the latest UK Charts data each week, we generally have a pretty good idea of where some of the newest titles will end up placing. Granted, Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake was a little lower than our estimates when it debuted in 14th place last week, but when we scrolled through this week's list and found it had disappeared entirely, well, we frankly couldn't believe it.

...

Sigh... Anyway, nothing we can do about it. Elsewhere, Nintendo is performing well this week, with the likes of Super Mario Party Jamboree, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Super Mario Bros. Wonder and Nintendo Switch Sports all claiming a spot in the top 10. Meanwhile, Mario & Luigi: Brothership has continued its descent down the charts to land at position 17.

Oh hey, that's me... well hello Install Base!

Long-time lurker, first time poster. Thanks for welcoming me in, and for the great group of questions.

I'll be back around 8AM Pacific to get rolling. Unfortunately for me, Ahmad set the bar pretty high with his Industry Q&A thread. So, I'll go get wired up on some caffeine and let's see what happens.

State of the market
Projected October 2024 total U.S. spending on video game hardware, content and accessories grew 10% when compared to a year ago, to $4.7 billion. Year-to-date spending is now 1% above a year ago, at $45.4 billion.

Video game content spending increased by 12% versus a year ago, reaching $4.2 billion. Console content was the biggest contributor to the overall gain, with a spending increase of 27% when compared to a year ago, fueled by console digital full game sales. Non-mobile video game subscription spending increased by 16% when compared to a year ago. The release of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 as part of Xbox Game Pass was the primary growth driver.

Hardware
Video game hardware spending dropped 23% in October when compared to a year ago. Switch dollar sales fell 38% year-on-year during October, while PS5 declined by 20% and Xbox Series showed an 18% decrease.

PlayStation 5 was once again the best-selling hardware platform in both unit and dollar sales for the month, with Xbox Series ranking 2nd across both measures.

604k units of new video game hardware sold in October 2024 across Arcade, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Plug-N-Play, and Xbox Series platforms. This is down from the 759k units sold a year ago.
Software
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 was October’s best-selling video game, debuting as the #3 best-selling game of 2024 YTD. Over each title's first two weeks in market, full game dollar sales of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 were 23% higher than Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III a year ago. PlayStation platforms accounted for 82% of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 total console full game dollar sales volume during the October tracking period.

After just one month in market, Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero became the best-selling Dragon Ball game in U.S. lifetime dollar sales and ranked 3rd among all Bandai Namco Entertainment published titles in history, trailing only Elden Ring and Dark Souls III.

Silent Hill 2 (2024) debuted as the #2 best-selling Silent Hill game in lifetime dollar sales, trailing only the original Silent Hill 2. It ranked 3rd among all video games in October full game dollar sales and at #28 for the 2024 year-to-date period.
Mobile
Sensor Tower: Top 10 mobile games by U.S. consumer spend in October and rank change vs September: MONOPOLY GO!, Royal Match, Roblox, Candy Crush Saga, Last War: Survival, Whiteout Survival, Township, Pokémon GO (+2), Coin Master, and Brawl Stars (-2).

“There was only one major rank change this month, with Pokémon GO (+14%) and Brawl Stars (-19%) swapping places. Brawl Stars is coming off historic highs driven by a groundbreaking collaboration with SpongeBob SquarePants,” said Samuel Aune of Sensor Tower.

“There is a bigger story happening in the background, however: MONOPOLY GO! saw a 20% decline in US revenue this past month. The game earned 50% more revenue in May and June 2024 than it did in October 2024,” said Aune. “Another huge story is the recent release of Pokémon TCG Pocket, which is looking like the launch of the year. The game has already passed the $30M worldwide in-app spend milestone a week after launch, with 22% of that coming from the US (44% coming from Japan)," Aune continued.
Accessories
Consumer spending on Accessories increased 15% in October when compared to a year ago, to $187 million. The PlayStation Portal was October’s best-selling accessory in dollar sales.
