hmm.. DQ8 had a start week (first 2 days) of ~ 2.268m and total sales of 3.68m in Japan (1.62 multiplier)
I wonder what kind of multiplier/total sales DQ9 can achieve..
arguments pro higher multi:
- higher userbase
- DS games generally have good legs
contra:
- first non-home console non-remake main line iteration
- seemingly lukewarm reception (might not be the case for the normal DQ buyer but only for "hardcores")
For now I think a 1.50-1.75 multiplier seems to be the most probable, which would put the game at 3.51m-4.1m in total jpn sales
