Do we have any indication from NPD or Nintendo themselves on how many digital copies either Mario Kart 8 or Zelda sold? I really would like to know if outselling Mario Kart 8 on the e-shop is due to having amazing sales or if it's because MK8 and BotW don't sell that much digital copies (since the console has very limited storage space).

For March NPD we got sales for Zelda from NPD (retail) and from Nintendo themselves (retail + digital). Digital accounted for only ~3% of the total.

I think this has less to do with storage space and is more about owning games on cards.

Thanks for the info.

So applying the same ratio for MK8 and using the 550k number for April from NPD it would mean about 16.5k digital copies for MK8 for April. Although it doesn't help all that much with the current chart, it does give a rough estimate of the range of sales for digital titles on the eShop.
