Nintendo Dominated the Video Game Market in 2009
Nintendo dominated the video game market last year 2009. But sadly, the top spot was not a Nintendo Game. Want to know the Top 1 game of 2009? Check the list in socypath.
It was the year of Nintendo games as they bag the 7 places of the Top 10 Video Games in the market of the year 2009. Even though they have the most number of popular games, they missed out the number 1 spot. It was the Xbox 360 version of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2 that sold the most, based on the retail tracking firm NDP Group.
The Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 by Activision Blizzard is a war shooter that sold nearly 6 million copies in 2009. A remarkable market performance considering that it was released just last November. It was the 8th best-selling game of the year, although on the PlayStation 3 rather than the Xbox.

1. Xbox 360: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 by Activision Blizzard
