The September 2018 NPD report might have been mostly quiet in terms of Nintendo news, but one related nugget of information has emerged. Through 2018 so far, Nintendo is actually the best-selling publisher of the year when it comes to software.
The bulk of Nintendo’s sales may very well come during the holiday season. The company is saving a couple of big guns for the holiday in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu / Eevee. Various Switch bundles are also planned, which should provide a nice hardware boost.
