NPD has shared information about the debut of Metroid Dread in the United States, revealing that the game is off to a fantastic start.
According to today’s report, the Switch title had the highest launch month sales of any Metroid franchise release in tracked history.

Mario Golf: Super Rush debuted on the NPD charts at #3. We now have some additional insight into the game’s performance.

On another software note, it’s worth noting that the Switch version of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 moved the game back into the NPD charts. It went from #51 in May to #17 in June.
