Gamers are still spending most of their money on new hardware.

In July, U.S. consumers spent $514.3 million on new gaming hardware, software, and accessories, according to industry-tracking firm The NPD Group. That’s up 16 percent over last year’s $443.1 million. The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One once again accounted for the bulk of that spending.

The U.S. spent more than $15 billion on console games alone last year, and 2014 is on pace to easily eclipse that.

“Similar to the pattern seen in seven out of the last nine months, strong growth in hardware sales offset declines in software sales in July 2014 while accessory sales had modest growth,” NPD analyst Liam Callahan said.

Gamers spent $198.8 million on consoles. That’s up a whopping 100 percent year-over-year. Putting that kind of cash into new systems, however, means that players spent 15 percent less, or only $178.2 million, on new software than in July 2013.

“Two other factors caused declines seen in July 2014 software sales,” said Callahan. “Reduced sales for new launches and the decline in [last-gen] software not entirely being offset by [new-gen] sales.”
