@Fab_GS

Tanks for that comparison, so like the last 2 gens, its Pokemon first & FF 2nd (Well assuming FF13 gets over 5.05 Million combined, which it 100% will)

All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

I think DQ X has a shot at the title when it launches.

I think it will sell more than elder scrolls or FFXIII because, there are tons of wii's in Japan, and for the most part DQ is more popular in Japan than FF. And square will probably make
a lot more money off it too, cause I assume the development costs would be a lot lower than FFXIII.

However in the states... I don't think it'll sell more than it usually does, which isn't a whole lot.

FF 13 is not an RPG

I can understand and respect that you disliked Final Fantasy XIII. But seriously you do not have to come into every single thread related to the game and post something ridiculous.

way too much assumption. there are way more DS in Japan, while DQ9 sold less than FFXIII overall.

also, is DQX even confirmed to be Wii exclusive yet? Sorry, I never played DQ series

Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

KH3 bet: "If KH3 comes to Wii exclusive, I will take a 1 month of sig/avatar by otheres open a thread apologize and praise you guys' brilliance." http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?start=50&id=18379
