My understanding is that they're separate. 600k physical copies, 200k digital cards, unknown number downloaded straight from the eShop.

What does the first sentence mean? If I buy a download code in a store and download it, or if I pay for it with my credit card and download it, isn't that the same thing except for the method of payment. |
No, he has a point, especially in regards to Japan. The cards exist because large segments of the population still prefer purchasing items in a store, even if that item is simply a string of alphanumeric characters.
