My guess is 40% on the Switch due to the game getting sold out at launch and 20% on the PS4 which didn't have such shortages - yet again proves my point about digital in Japan :)

Based on Sony's financial reports, I'd be surprised if the Switch version had a bigger digital cut than the PS4 version, even in Japan. 

Edit: If this article is accurate, Sony is comfortably ahead of Nintendo in digital sales, especially if we compare software splits in the same period. 

Nintendo Is Selling More Digitally Than Physically For The First Time Ever (thegamer.com)

The Switch version of Tsukihime was almost completely sold out in the first week and dropped out of the top 30 very quickly. The PS4 version did not. The game topped the eshop for a very long time.

It doesn't matter how the digital ratio for Playstation globally for all games is when we're talking about a specific game with unusual circumstances. They didn't ship enough physical copies because of the game size and the bigger cartridges being expensive.
