This year, Nintendo shared their list of the top 25 most downloaded games in North America (thanks, Siliconera!). It should be noted that this only lists every time a game has been downloaded, whether it was marked at full price or not. It does, however, serve to paint a picture of current marketplace trends.
So, who won, Pokémon Sword or Pokémon Shield? How far did Fire Emblem: Three Houses make it on the list? What indie titles made it on? What’s the oldest game on the list? See for yourself:
