Aye, I know, just the difference is becoming quite large. At the same point in time Wii U software on vgchartz was around 10 million, it was at roughly 20 million according to NPD. While I realise this is shipping numbers, digital sales are becoming an increasingly significant factor.

Indeed, tell me if my calculations make sense to you.

 

Assuming the 16million retail+digital sales are from Sept. 30th 2012 to Sept. 30 2013

I have on vgchartz:

Sept 29 2012, SW Sales total: 15.76m
Sept 28 2013, SW Sales total: 29.12m

For a difference of 13.36m retail, meaning that if vgchartz numbers are correct, Nintendo made 2.7m in digital sales, a volume of 16.8% over total sales. Not bad right?

That would sound about right. I wonder what initial digital sales were like, what sort of increase they are seeing.


with that guessed percentage it will now allow people to get an idea of the total sales numbers by just taking the figures listed here and adding 16.8% to it if the game is available on the eshop, it wouldn't be anything that you could call an exact number but would still give you a ball park idea. Really cool to know, nice work.
