That's too much for the kind of game DQXI is (singleplayer JRPG aimed at a casual audience). 10% is rare on the 3DS. It certainly isn't the average. The average is closer to 5% and I predict below that for DQXI. For example Yokai-Watch 3 had a digital ratio of like 2-3%, Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3 of 3-4% and Pokemon Sun/Moon of 2-3% according to Famitsu. And same goes for the PS4 version although the average for the console is higher. I'm thinking below 10% for the PS4. |
It's pretty interesting but there are certain IP that really don't get a high digital adoption rate. Part of it (I think) has to do with that typically more hardcore players are the ones to buy digitally, but it's a market with a low ceiling when taking into account a full $80-90 title. People want to get the copy for their collection of the rest of the series.
