The Nintendo Switch was July 2020's best-selling console

American market research company 'The NPD Group' have calculated that Nintendo's console, which was first released back in 2017, was the most popular video game console in July 2020 in terms of sales.

NPD analyst Mat Piscatella said: "Nintendo Switch was once again the best-selling hardware platform of both July and 2020 year-to-date in unit and dollar sales".

When it comes to games made exclusively for the Nintendo Switch, 'Paper Mario: The Origami King' sold the most copies in July, and 'Animal Crossing: New Horizons' is still proving to be popular, since that came in second place.
