And DQ10... well lets see where that one goes, I doubt it will stay Wii exclusive in japan, seeing how piss-poor software sales are. If it does, it will be one of the worst selling main DQ game. |

Uh-huh. Sure, why not?
Seriously, almost any game that sells over 500k can sell a hell lot in Japan on Wii. It's a "big-hit" based market. DQ, by nature, will be a "big hit" and will easily live up to franchise standards. You'd be crazy to expect it to sell under 2m in Japan. On top of that, it's almost certain to be the best selling DQ outside of Japan if it stays Wii-exclusive 'cause Nintendo will advertise it so no way it'll be lower than 2m.
Heck, if a DQ spin-off can sell 500k, ain't 2m guaranteed for the real thing?
On topic, I'd expect some 50-55% at the very least. Wii isn't nearly as dead as most people/PS3 fans seem to think.
