The monthly NPD sales report has released, and it included some major news for Nintendo’s newest release, Pokemon Sword and Shield. According to NPD analyst Mat Piscatella, “Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield titles combined to achieve the highest launch month dollar sales of any Pokémon release in U.S. history, topping the previous launch month high set by Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon”. Piscatella’s tweet is down below.
