Personally I think the sales are inflated due to the lack of competition for RPGs on the Wii U and secondly due to the lack of games in general.

Nintendo fans didn't have much else new to choose from in November and December so it's inevitable that X gets a boost. 200k+ in the US is definitely good for the game but you're not going to see 3Rd party RPG developers rushing back to support them.

 

Most games on thhe system are inflated due to lack of other options. Sadly for Xeno blade I do not think there were many who downloaded it. Way to difficult.

On Japan around 25% of sales are digital.
