Really great performance by DQB. Will be interesting to see if it'll have Minecraft-like legs, or if it'll have JRPG-like legs. Fingers crossed for the former!

None of them. JRPGs are oftenly less than 2 x FW and Minecraft can be 20-50 x FW. I would guess someting like 5 x FW LT.



YWB up this week, it might take YW3 to kill a spin-off lol
Minecraft PS4 and Vita both up, could DQB actually extend Minecraft legs?

Black Ops is showing some serious legs and will most likely overtake Fallout 4 next week.



I cannot imagine toilet-free life.

Kebabs have a unique attribute compared to other consumables. To unlock this effect you need to wolf down a big ass kebab really fast, like under 10 minutes or so and wait for the effect to kick in. If done correctly your movements should feel unbelievably heavy to the point where you literally cannot move at all.

People keep looking at Splatoon being out of the top 10, but not at that barely existent drop ( 4%)..

Holy mother of Dragon Quest Builders, it did 362k first week!!! Much much better than expected!!!
PS Vita version selling 178k first week with shipment problems is insane!
PS4 version with 141k is amazing and PS3 version with 53k is great too.
No I want to see big legs!!!

Its a minecraft like game.... it ll sell well for years, if word of mouth gets out about it being good, and they give it some updates every now and again.

Well, when I said Minecraft-like legs, I didn't literally mean the same FW multiple as Minecraft, cause that would probably make DQB one of the bestselling games in Japan of all time

I just meant if it'll be able to stay in the charts for a long time, selling consistenly, I guess sort of like Splatoon, but a tad more frontloaded.

Wow Dragon Quest Builders sold very well! Probably moved a lot of Vitas as well

edit: On second look, Vita outsold the 3ds for the first time in a long time (1-2 years i believe). This is quite amazing!

It's not amazing but interesting. If Vita would manage to do that for a few weeks in a row that would be amazing.

There are many Minecraft clones out there, some sold got at launch but are now forgotten. This game as the DQ-Bonus but I think it will have similar sales than other minecraft clones + some %. But would be interesting when it had Splatoon like sales.

Yup, Minecraft and now builders on vitahas kicked the 3DSin the balls.

Nintendo should have tried harder to get one of those on the 3ds. Shame on them!

Mario tennis did way better than I thought, but moved no systems.

1) Think the 3DS is to slow to do DQBs. It could be a hardware issue.

2) Yep Mario tennis did better than I thought too (the reviews where so harsh, wasnt expecting much of anything).



PSVita number 1, then PS4 number 2 - awesome. The PS4 is THE jrpg-system in the future <3 Tomorrow-Release: Naruto UNS4 !!!
Dragon Quest Builders, great. And Street Fighter 5, Attack on Titan + Project Setsuna are coming this month for PS4 in japan.
