Okay, so for some reason, my posts keep getting deleated, so here goes yet another attempt to post...
It seems the preliminary data for how well Dragon Quest IX sold has been released finally. VGChartz has it selling about 47,000 units, which is somewhat better the initial sales for the recent DS entries in the series. But I'd blame the lack of stock in stores for the actual lack of sales than lack of interest. As plenty of people have reported stores selling out of the title.
I forsee stores ordering many more copies of this game down the road. Hopefully the game will have some nice legs. And hopefully Nintendo will market the game beyondits initial first few weeks.
