Forums - Nintendo - Final Fantasy IV DS First Day Sales In Japan

Erik Aston on 21 December 2007

Crisis Core, btw, did not do as well as Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker, Final Fantasy III or Dragon Quest IV.



"[Our former customers] are unable to find software which they WANT to play."
"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."

Satoru Iwata, Nintendo President. Only slightly paraphrased.

Final Fantasy III DS did over 500K in it's first week in Japan.

So this doesn't sound like a particularly good showing.

ChronoTrigger... Pretty much everything does well on DS now. The install base is huge, afterall. There's nearly 40 million selling titles, including Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, Zelda, etc.

 Strange though if the pre-order was only 400k. Then it could only sell that many and would have to end up short of its predecessor. If you take first day sales at 50% of first week sales then first week would be about 360k with a 90% sell through. That sounds like a good showing. Who knows how retailers are figuring out their shipment orders though.
