Dragon Quest IX about to take the gaming world by storm in Japan. Every time a new Dragon Quest title is released in Japan, it’s treated like a national holiday. It should come as no surprise that Dragon Quest IX for the DS, which has a massive install base, will be treated any differently.
In today’s Nikkei Industrial Paper, the paper reports that the game has passed the two million preorder mark for retailers. Dragon Quest titles have the tendency of selling several million copies during the first of sales. Dragon Quest IX will release this Saturday along with a new red DSi.
I think we know what the top selling game of July will be in Japan.
Amazing sales!
