Personally I think the sales are inflated due to the lack of competition for RPGs on the Wii U and secondly due to the lack of games in general.

Nintendo fans didn't have much else new to choose from in November and December so it's inevitable that X gets a boost. 200k+ in the US is definitely good for the game but you're not going to see 3Rd party RPG developers rushing back to support them.

That is still in line of what the article suggest. There is indeed a market for core RPGs on Nintendo consoles*.

 

*if it's Nintendo developed and only releases every 5 years

 

Yeah.  I didn't read the whole thing I'll admit :p
