Not sure where you got that info but thats seems not the case.

The total software that ninty mentioned(1.5bill+)

Is with digital only games included.

• Grand Totals: The overall lifetime software unit numbers provided in Nintendo Financial Results combine physical cartridge sales and digital downloads across first-party and third-party publishers.

• Digital & Indie Inclusion: Download-only releases (such as indie titles that never received a physical print) are fully factored into the platform's total consolidated software sales units.

Again, that 1.5bill is insane but you cant compare it to a console that was physical only/did not recieve 1dollar/10 dollars heck not even 20 dollar games.

Where did you get this info? Can you provide your source?

Well TBH i just asked google,  could be wrong trying to find it in the info nintendo provides but its verry difficult so i could again be mistaken, not trying to do a " haha gotcha!! Move just verry curious about it....if true at least the  the gaming industry in terms of software units sold has greatly increased from the 5th/6th era.

I do wonder why they do not include all software in their "totals" it just sound strange and almost unbelievable to me that 1.5+billion units on for example the ps4 is ONLY physical and their digital counterparts..

Edit i seems to have found it and it indeed does say it does NOT include digital only games.

Iam honestly shocked about it, i always figured that total software sales for both switch and ps4/5 included digital only games.

Slowly walks shocked away...
