Dragon Quest sells under a million worldwide outside of Japan. Shin Megami Tensei has never broke 1 million units sold worldwide.

The JRPG market has been shrinking at an easily trackable rate since FFVII, and this generation could represent as much as a 50% drop in sales for the genre as a whole. JRPGs are niche, even in Japan, other than a few main series.


You are a terrible, horrible person for reminding me of such hateful news. I don't mean that, but I do hate this. I'd love for my PS3 to provide me with the same amount of JRPG goodness as my PS2. Sadly, I'm nt so confident that'll be the case.

Also, are you sure DQ8 didn't sell 1m+ in EUR+US?
