I´m really surprised DQ11 on 3DS doesn´t have a big lead. Really thought that would happen just based on installbase.

Maybe a lot of those portable fans are waiting for the Switch version.

I wonder if this week's MC or Famitsu that Switch will reach it's first ever under 40k?

Minecraft recently just came out, so hopefully that would keep the Switch holding steady at above 40k, unless stock becomes a major issue.



A nice day for DQ and PlayStation.

Splatoon 2 can't come soon enough, I can't wait till we get more info at E3. Nice to see Pre-orders for Splatoon 2 still going strong, with it's original being the best selling 8th gen home console game in Japan it'll be interesting to see how well it can top that.

For now... DQXI, FFVIIR, and GTA VI all have their eyes on that prize...

Yeah, It'll be interesting to see if Splatoon can hold on to that, or if Splatoon 2 will be able to take it away from all of them, well that is if we can clarify a gen to put the Switch in, but so far every attempt has failed at having a clear answer. But Splatoon is still currently 500k copies ahead of it's closest selling (Non Nintendo title) so it's on a high pedestal to reach.

And how's it doing compared to it's predecessors (DQIX, DQVIII, possibly even DQX and the DQ remakes on DS/3DS)?

DQVIII: 709 @11~ weeks left. 4285 @1 week left
DQIX: 1770~ @77 days left. 2917 @1 day left (Preorders opened too early)
Pokemon Sun/Moon: 660 @77 days left. 1718 @1 day left.

Holy crap!!! DQ VIII was really killing it back then! DQ IX had a great start but seems to have had a slow finish if it "only" got 2917 points. Pokemon Sun/Moon really looks almost laughable compared to those two numbers



Yay Seiken!!! Another point! Please go for 20! I already watched the trailer zillion of times! Square must localize this! I will import the japanese and buy a localized version if they do!

Interesting is definitely the word for the battle for Splatoon's throne! As for the Switch's gen, while that's difficult to determine, when looking at Japan I think that it's unfair to compare it to the PS4 and Wii U as its Japanese sales and reception seem far more in line with a handheld's. Personally I'd say the Switch is gen 9, but even if one considers it gen 8, a comparison with PS4/WiiU is unfair (Switch will probs have at least 10 games that beat Splatoon 1 anyway :P).

DQ8 ended up with  a lot more points than DQ9 but both games sold similarly in the first week:

[PS2] Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King  - 2,236,881

[NDS] Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies  -  2,343,440
I guess points in 2004 were not the same as points in 2009
