Circana warns that the U.S. console hardware market is in its most precarious state since the early 1980s, citing its latest retail tracking data. Senior director Mat Piscatella reported that, through August, Xbox hardware sales have fallen 33% compared with the same period last year, while PlayStation hardware sales are down 25% year‑over‑year.
