no it isn't a FACT cus DQ sells like Cow Poo outside of Japan

FF13 will OUTSELL DQ 9....trust me on this..

@shameless

Well that means the bar is so low isn't it

Unless DQ sells like 5 mil in Japan...or more X_X Plus I'd expect another 2 mil+ boost or so from US and EU so DQ IX definitey has a chance at beating FF XIII in sales. Don't count out the possibility.

I can't disagree with you more. FFvii made the JRPG genre international but you're only 13 so you may not know this. I couldn't care as much fore KH as much as FFXIII. I don't really care for the colorfulness and disney characters. Still a good series though. And Tales just doesn't match FF. Tales of the Abyss was a lot of fun but doesn't come close to the immersiveness of the living breathing world in FF games. The sales speak for themselves. Millions of people won't buy a bad game

I am only 2 years older than Soriku but I am very aware that FFVII brought JRPGs to the mainstream.  I wish people didn't bash this series just because it is mainstream.  FF is not only a great RPG series but also a great franchise in general. 

 

Anyways, the reason why Tales doesn't sell that well outside of Symphonia is because Namco are lazy and aren't advertising their games properly
