Animal Crossing would have been in the top 3 without a doubt if digital sales were included. It was the lockdown game.
I'm firmly in the digital download camp. Putting in a disc / cartridge feels decidedly outdated these days.

100%. Especially when you look at the size of switch hardware sales.
I wonder why Nintendo doesn’t release digital sales. Surely at least 3rd party developers would want any successful sales on the switch being made public.
