The Nex Playground, an Xbox Kinect-type motion-controlled games console, has quietly spent a week outselling both the PS5 and Xbox Series X as the second best-selling hardware in the US.
As reported by Circana senior director Mat Piscatella, the number-one best-selling games console in the US for the week ending in November 22 was the Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle - not a huge surprise given the system recently released and has been a massive success. But what followed the Switch 2 is hugely surprising, as it doesn't start with an X or a P. It's the Nex Playground, a console I'm admittedly hearing about today for the first time. In third place is the PS5 Slim Digital, and Piscatella's data report ends there. "So that's neat," he said.
