So that 854k figure for Metroid Dread, is that with or without digital?

Because Nintendo typically doesn't include digital sales in these NPD reports. So did Bowser stick to that for this or did he just feel like bragging? Because if those sales are without digital, then that would make it even MORE impressive.

It's with digital. The physical sales nearly doubled Metroid Prime's debut in November 2002, which were at 363k at $50.

Metroid US launch month sales:

Metroid Prime - 363k

Metroid Fusion - 200k

Metroid Zero Mission - 152k

Metroid Prime 2: Echoes - 192k

Metroid Prime Pinball - 6k

Metroid Prime Hunters - 122k

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption - 218k

Metroid Prime Trilogy - 34k

Metroid Other M - 173k

Metroid Prime: Federation Force - 30k

Metroid Dread - 854k

Metroid Dread had a bigger launch than Metroid Prime 1, 2 and 3 combined.
