I know the game has sold/shipped 6.5 million, but does anybody know if it was successful on Switch? I only ask because: I'm currently playing through 11 (my first DQ game - besides DW Monsters on GameBoy) and am just blown away so far. Do you think it was successful enough to have a version of 12 eventually ported to Switch?

I just worry Nintendo fans may miss out due to inferior hardware. I know 11 Switch sales doesn't necessarily mean 12 is guaranteed for Switch, but it does help.


I'm sure 11 sold at least a million on Switch. Regarding 12, it probably won't come out until at least 2022 (which is 5 years into Switch life). At that point, they might as well just make the Switch Pro version (if that is indeed real) or wait for the proper next Switch device and port it to that. March 2023 will be 6 years since Switch launch and if Nintendo sticks to the 6 year life cycle that will be Switch 2 launch window (which will be far more powerful than either Switch or Pro).
