I'm currently playing through the game on the Switch. It's my first DQ game. I'm at around the 17 hour mark of my game time, I've gotten 5 of the 7 main party members, and I'm greatly enjoying it so far. We'll see how well my opinion holds as I progress further.
As far as it's performance in the West goes, if Amazon and GameStop is anything to go by, it's performing pretty well, alongside Link's Awakening. The best I could hope for is that it matches the PS4 version in Western sales. But that's about it.
