Don't forget that this is shipped so it includes physical copies that haven't even been sold yet. Take that out of the equation and the physical ratio goes up to 90%-ish.

Also we know that Tropical Freeze hasn't reached a million yet, because Nintendo didn't even mention it so far.

You mean unsold physical copies make the ratio of physical sales go down.

No. For example: Super Mario 3D World: 2.17m digital+retail, ~1.8m retail only = ~83% retail.

I calculated 1800k retail sales + 370k digital sales = 2170k total sales, which leads to 83% retail and 17% digital.

If we assume that the sold-through number of VGC (~1.8m) is correct, but Nintendo shipped ~2.0m in that time frame, there are only 170k digital sales left:

• 2000k retail shipped + 170k digital sales = 2170k with 200k retail copies on the shelves.
• 1800k retail sold + 170k digital sales = 1970k sold (without the retail copies on the shelves), which leads to 91% retail and 9% digital sold.
