If DQV sells this much, it's going to be crazy how much DQIX will sell.

Dragon Quest V Ships a Million in Japan
Less than two weeks to platinum status.
by John Tanaka
July 29, 2008 - Square Enix announced today that Dragon Quest V has, as of the 30th (Japan time), crossed the million shipment mark. The title was released in Japan on July 17.
Platinum sales for this latest Dragon Quest remake shouldn't come as a surprise. Last week, Media Create reported first week sales of over 600,000 units for the game. DQV's predecessor, a remake of DQIV, topped the million mark as well following its November 2007 Japanese release.
The trilogy of Dragon Quest remakes, including part VI, is scheduled for stateside release starting in September.
