Assuming DQ has legs, It is probably safe to assume that if DX X(?) was released on PS4 when it was at 3 or 4 million install base it would continue selling as the PS4 install base grew and by the time PS4 got to 8 or 9 million the game would have sold 3 million or so. But my point was that with a 3-4 million install base it;s possible for a DQ game to do 1 million for the opening week, which would make it a worthwhile prospect. But maybe SE's strategy is for DQH to get PS4 owners interested (or re-interested) in the franchise so that the next 3DS version will sell even better. Ultimately SE shouldn't care what platform DQ comes out on, as long as it sells well. Sony can put forward a case for DQ to make a jump to PS4, on the basis of DQH success. But whether or not it's a strong enough case to convince SE to actually do it is a different matter. |
Well Yuji Horii, the creator of Dragon Quest, already said DQXI is being made for home consoles and since the PS4 seems to have the brightest future out of the current home consoles, it makes sense to release it there.
