Very impressive from Switch Sports considering it's cheaper than most games
 
Ragnarok making physical top 5 but not (a much less competitive) digital top 5 is due to bundles?

Top 5 is available on PlayStation, Xbox and PC, it's very hard to compete when you're an exclusive.

At retail, you have mostly PlayStation sales, Xbox and PC players buy mostly digital.

Retail has Nintendo, digital doesn't. Ranking by revenue packaged Switch is going to be more competitive than digital Steam or Xbox on the top end.

Games ahead of it in digital data are Elden Ring (probably large PC share so also high digital overall) and sport titles (we know from french data that at least FIFA has high digital share on PS/Xbox). Only bit weird title there is Lego Star Wars.

GSD, hmm used to be from GfK back in the old PALGN days.

They should always start with huge asterisks when reporting digital without big players.

The data has some meaning, but it's not 'the market'.
