It’s The State of Gaming Podcast, Popzara’s in-depth look at what’s shaking up the gaming landscape delivered on a monthly basis. Our hosts Cory Galliher and Nate Evans guide you through the best, worst, and everything else making headlines and headway in the world of interactive entertainment.
The biggest games of the month include: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Super Mario RPG, Star Ocean: The Second Story R, Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name, RoboCop: Rogue City, WarioWare: Move It!, and Persona 5 Tactica.

Circana remains the gaming industry’s best snapshot of what’s moving and shaking up both physical and digital retail shelves across the country. All estimates are for entertainment purposes only. Total sales of new gaming hardware and software topped $4.036 billion, a five percent drop from last year.
On the Top Twenty software charts Sony’s Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 swung to the top spot, while Nintendo’s Super Mario Bros. Wonder bopped its way to second. Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed: Mirage debuted high in third, Sega’s Sonic Superstars spun into ninth, Konami’s Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 snuck into twelfth, Microsoft’s Forza Motorsport raced into seventeenth, and CI Games’ Lords of the Fallen rounded out at twentieth.
Also notable is that Nintendo’s Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is missing from the charts for the first time since debuting in 2017 – and becoming the Switch’s all time best-selling game.
