Weekly sales have never extrapolated to 1pt:1000 sales.

Also, hasn't Famitsu already given digital estimates for Astral Chain? I could have sworn I saw some earlier.

Hasn't that always been the average though? And all the ratio charts are a comparison of how much of a deviation from that ratio a game is?

No. If you were average FW sales at COMG, it'd be much closer to a 1pt:500 rather than the 1pt:1000 for preorders.

Why would anyone want ot use Famitsus digital estimates? They've never been right.

Of course not. That's why they're estimates. But it's better than conjecture with no data basis behind it. So it's best we have until Nintendo decides to disclose more information.

Though, I'm actually worried now for Link's Awakening ...after BoTW you'd think the userbase there would be more ready to plunge for the game already ...

Well, Breath of the Wild is only at 1.4m-ish sold according to Famitsu. I don't think Zelda is that big in Japan. Plus they're very different games even if they're both Zelda titles.

It's not even estimates, it's based on fan polls. I'd call it guesstimates at most. Heck, they've had digital estimates for games that didnt even have a digital release :P
