Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

Where's Final Fantasy Gaiden?



Nice list I'm looking forward to Dragon Quest 6 and 9 and Fantasy Life.



Golden Sun 3, Ninokuni and Lufia alone would make it a splendid list in my book.

In the hands of many, it was released last year.

OT: Added the devs/publishers of each game.

What? There is a world outside of the USA? O_o I'm an idiot, forget me.

When is it going to hit our shores though? Good list, BTW!



Lol, yeah, Japanese will always get RPG's first. I don't know if the game is coming to the USA though, some of them in my list may never make it.

I wished Nintendo and Level 5 would bring Inazuma Eleven to the west.



Nice, I think DS might become best RPG system o.a.t in the future.

What sort of "relevance" though?  If you're talking sales, I think they'll go...

  • Pokemon 5th Generation (Pokemon/Game Freak/Creatures Inc.) ~5,000,000
  • Ninokuni: The Another World (Level-5/Studio Ghibli) ~2,000,000
  • Dragon Quest Monsters JOKER 2 (Square Enix/TOSE Software) ~1,500,000
  • Inazuma Eleven 3: Challenge the World (Level-5) ~1,000,000
  • Pokemon Ranger: Path of Light (Pokemon/HAL Laboratory) ~450,000
  • Fantasy Life (Level-5/Brownie Brown) ~300,000
  • Golden Sun DS (Nintendo/Camelot) ~200,000
  • Etrian Odyssey III: Visitor of the Sea (Atlus/Lancarse) ~120,000
  • Super Robot Taisen OG Saga Exceed (Bandai/Monolith Soft) 100,000
  • Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer 4 (Spike/Chunsoft) ~100,000

 

...I don't see anything else passing 100k.
