The NPD Group which tracks video game sales in the United States has revealed not only the best-selling games during the vital month of December but also for the entirety of 2015.

Not even single Nintendo game in sight. Just goes to show Nintendo has been underperforming.
Even though Nintendo has been doing pretty bad in game sales for like the last couple years, All these games are on all consoles and Nintendo are only on one lmao
More like, Why did they post this news on a Nintendo Oriented news site if there is nothing Nintendo related in the list.
Ha true, though news about the competition is also welcomed from time to time to avoid getting the same ol’ news on Nintendo.
This list is supposed to show how Nintendo wasn’t able to make the top 10 rather than the other companies doing well. It’s still news regardless. If you wa t to complain something nothing to do with Nintendo, then complain about the “Sony trademarking/copyrighting the term Let’s Play”.
It doesn’t go to show anything. Nintendo games are on one (or two sometimes) platforms while all these others are multi-plat and PC games. Of course there are going to be more sales. CoD (sadly) always leads in sales. Quit trying to start a flame war.
I’m just trying to be realist :| While I do admit it’s my bad since I just realised it made sense for those games to be there because they’re multiplats, I still stick by what I said when I meant Nintendo has been underperforming. Actually they have been for a while. They can definitely do better.
Nintendo has been underperforming since the 64 days its nothing new.But their game are still has awesome.

Are they not counting minecraft on WiiU? It crashed the store at launch!
Should at least put it in the parentheses you’d think… all good though.
That’s not that impressive, specially when a sneeze crashes the eShop.
I assume this doesn’t account for digital sales.
I’d love to have one of the new 3DS. But they are expensive. :(
dude? bro!
Its not really good to compare sales of Wii U games to this list because their all multiplats and the sales are stretched over 3-5 consoles, whilst Wii U games are mostly exclusives.
Yup sadly.
Wow, top 3 big games sold better on the XBO, and all the sport games are selling better on the PS4. Just goes to show you that a little wrong messaging can really screw you over.
As much as people hate dude bros, they are a big help to console sales, and ultimately to the die hards.
Guys, see this video! All my characters got frozen! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56P4vrISUxs&feature=youtu.be&a
So weird.. sorry for poor Quality.
I can’t wait for the day when people start realizing COD is a waste of money and a super lazily developed series. How the hell has it not suffered from franchise fatigue? It’s an annual title that equates to nothing more than a $60 map pack. Then another $50 for the season pass for more maps… sigh.
Because of the fan base duh
>>>Nothing but Call Of Duty and Madden NFL in that list, the US and UK territories are garbage, they must be reprogrammed at once>>>
Funny how the lot of you are quick to criticise (spell correctly) the UK but when we have the same chart in Usa nobody dare to say US players have very bad gaming taste……
