Did not know we had data for Shipped+Digital Japan Only.

Look at the Supplementary info section on Nintendo's IR page, it breaks down shipments between Japan & overseas.

Ahhh, it's literally the next page down from the one I was posting. xD

The problem with these numbers though is that shipped may be quite a bit higher than sold-through, especially for the recent tiles. Famitsu says 250,272 physical sold for fire emblem for end of september. Nintendo say 480k Shipped+Digital.

We have no way of knowing how many of the extra 230k are copies that were sold digitally, or physical copies that have been shipped but not sold yet.

At least with Nintendo's actual digital ratio figures we don't have that problem.

Which older titles were on the voucher program? The older they are the less the difference between shipped/sold-through will matter, so they'll probably give a more accurate percentage.

Smash Bros Ultimate gives a digital ratio of just 11.4%, while the newer titles give ratio's of anywhere from 20-45% but that counts shipped copies as digital sales.
