I haven't done this since June so I put together three months this time.
NPD of July, Aug, Sept of previous generations at this same respective time.
2016 = 2009 = 2004 = 1999 = 1994
Ton of major releases here, including the DC launch.
At this time in past generations we had Halo 3, Tales of Symphonia, Fable, Star Ocean 3, Pikmin 2, Pokémon Snap, Mario Golf 64, FFVIII, Super SFII, Mortal Kombat 2, Breath of Fire, Illusion of Gaia, etc.
Quarterly North American shipment data where available.
Side by side so you can just glide your eyes to the right of the same year.
July, August, September (scroll over):
*there are 3 images, click each to enlarge*
GBC HW in July '99 (forgot to add) was 450,000. The GBC data comes from "reverse engineering" a graph from a PDF research paper that used NPD HH data. No, I do not have HH SW data pre-GBA.
For comparison sake:
