February 2022 NPD hardware: Switch outsells supply-limited competition

Nintendo Switch was the best-selling hardware of February in the United States, according to industry-tracking firm The NPD Group. That is for both unit sales and dollar sales. Xbox Series X/S, meanwhile, outsold the PlayStation in both of those metrics. Xbox and PlayStation are both severely supply constrained. Microsoft and Sony is selling every single system they put into the retail chain. So, as usual, this is hardly a measure of sales and is instead a measure of how many systems each company is sending to the United States.

The new-gen consoles from Microsoft and Sony are in such limited supply that hardware sales dropped significantly year-over-year.
