Nintendo said BotW sold 925k (retail + digital) on Switch, NPD said 900k (retail). 925k - 900k = 25k digital (from Nintendo). Math here, math there 25k ÷ 925k = 0.027 or 2.7% rounded to 3%.

Here's EA talking about digital downloads, if anyone cares (they say digital downloads were 32% last year) http://www.mcvuk.com/news/read/32-of-ea-unit-sales-in-2016-were-digital/0178293

Press release doens't say digital and only references NPD numbers.  That means the 925k IS the NPD figure.   NPD only repeated greater than 900k.

Meaning we still don't know digital sales yet.

The press release says the 1.3 mil total includes digital. If the 925k is from NPD, then it would've sold 0% digitally, seeing as the Wii U's 460k adds to the 1.3 mil.

Unless I'm misunderstanding and it sold 1.3 mil retail only.
