Amazon\u2019s best selling Video Games of 2018 show very surprising results Amazon has revealed all of the best selling video games purchased on the website in 2018 and the standings might shock a few people. The list, which also includes many video game related items, features a number of household favorites which are available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch platforms. Activision announced that Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 had set a new record for revenue generated on its opening weekend, with $500 million worth of sales counted. Yet, despite that fact, it was outsold on Amazon last year. Red Dead Redemption 2 was a game that the gaming community had been craving for over eight years and went one better than the Call of Duty title, as it was announced that $725 million had been generated in the Rockstar game\u2019s first three days on sale. Surprisingly enough, though, Red Dead 2 didn\u2019t make the top of Amazon\u2019s list either. Instead, it was Nintendo\u2019s Super Smash Bros. Ultimate which generated the most sales for the online retailer in 2018 \u2013 which may seem surprising. A possible cause for the new Smash Bros game appearing at the top of the list is that it\u2019s only available on Nintendo Switch, much like Super Mario Party, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and other Nintendo games which feature high on Amazon\u2019s 2018 best seller list below. On the other hand, Black Ops 4 and Red Dead Redemption 2 have online versions sold on both the Microsoft store and Sony\u2019s PlayStation store. It looks like more PlayStation players buy from Amazon also, with not one Xbox game making the top 10 \u2013 which is dominated by games from Sony and Nintendo. For reference, the highest selling Xbox One game on Amazon was Black Ops 4, which just missed out on the top 10, in the 11th spot. Prices accurate as of January 6, 2019.
