Let's recap and correct me if I'm wrong: 

Capcom had a press release saying RE8 shipped more than 3m worldwide (https://www.capcom.co.jp/ir/english/news/html/e210511a.html )

David Gibson said is was 50% digital and 90% non-Japan. (twitter.com/gibbogame/status/1392343317057196035)

From that we get: Over 1.5m digital WW and 300K total (physical and digital) for Japan.

We got the information that RE8 sold 40%-60% (not sure where that information came from though), if it is true:

For 149.8k sold to be 40% of the initial shipment, that shipment would have to be 374.7k (which is impossible because of the 300K figure we got earlier)

For 149.8k sold to be 60% of the initial shipment, that shipment would have to be 249.8k.

If we go by that last number that leaves 50.2k copies sold digitally so roughly a 75% physical, 25% digital split. That would also leave about 100k copies at retailers.

Bold: Famitsu

The anti-Nintendo troop is deniers? Because I never see this so many times. The source is capcom and insiders. Capcom Aways reports sales period. Sales are everything always. But the deniers try to bash Capcom stateman. Then the insider stateman is wrong, because it's not possible so low digital sales. It's not possible low digital sales because jeopardy all digital sales phenomenal narrative some so attached. 

It's funny. 

But, until now, PS5 has, in Japan, atrocious software sales. One or two system seller maybe change this, but the decrease it will affect all East Asia market. And declined Japan market too.

The Psn+ AAA games, fast depreciation games value are the two-factor contributes for, in long term, software sales declines. I hope Nintendo doesn't go this way, because will be more dangerous for Nintendo than Sony and Microsoft. It's good for consumers, but seems hurts the company in the long term if the company wants to sell software. Sony and Microsoft want games as service. It's not my way, I like own the games and not rent the games.
