It was a very good result for Dragon Quest, no doubt, but I'd suggest it's more an anomaly than a rule for WiiU games. The title was an expansion and I think there were incentives to upgrade digitally, making the ratio a lot more skewed than for most games.
And to answer your question from the other thread: We don't actually know how Famitsu are getting their numbers. But since they're the only digital sales we're getting, it's better than nothing!
