Anyone know digital sales?


We need a thread asking 3DS gamers only, if they buy digital or retail games. Then maybe we could guesstimate digital sales.

 

I bet at least 30-50 thousand bought it digitally. Just so easy to do.


Probably not.  Ubisoft has given some numbers about what % of games sell digitally and the number tends to hover around 5-10% depending on the console for their games.  I believe the 3DS was about 5%.  Of course, Ubi's game are more of a Western thing and not first party so it may be different for Nintendo games in Japan, but 50% seems pretty unlikely.  I'll actually be picking up Mario and Luigi digitally, but mainly because I have eShop credit from the Shin Megami/Fire Emblem promotion.
