July was a very tough month for the gaming industry in the United States as sales dropped a whopping 26 per cent compared to last year. In fact, this is the worst month on record since October -06. That didn't stop NCAA Football 12 from selling a solid 796,000 copies, but only the first eight games came in at six figures during the month. Hardware sales also dropped dramatically compared to June, and hopefully the price drop for Nintendo 3DS will see hardware sales rise in August. On the software side August will see the release of Madden NFL 12 and that will undoubtedly be the next number one.
