lol Pokemon ultra s/m would be extremely lucky to sell half DQXI numbers lifetime in Japan. Isn't it like an expansion? Is it even guaranteed to pass 1.5M?

I reckon it will be overestimated just like Monster Hunter XX on Switch.

the best comparison for Ultra Sun/Moon would be previous expanded versions of Pokemon generations.

Emerald, Platinum & Black/White 2 each did in the 2-3 range so over 2 million seems possible.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

DQ11 back to beast mode today. Ps4 version closing in on 500 points!

Gundam finishing with a very respectable 174 points. Now let's hope for a good ratio.

My point was, I don't need to expect that Pokemon and Splatoon sell between 3.5 million to outsell DQXI, because I don't think DQXI will sell as much as 3.5 million.

okay then you're predicting major floppage for Dragon Quest and major over performance for Pokemon expansions on the 3DS

I mean, DQXI is doing pretty bad on COMG. So I am not expecting it to suddenly do 4.5 million. Plenty of previously huge franchises in Japan have done bad this gen.



Dragon Quest crosses the 900 point marker today, with the PS4 version closing in on 500.

yeah but i made a really big post explaining why, despite its performance on COMG, it seems to be performing very strongly and looks to have a very large opening, but you didnt have much to say to that. I also said 3.5-4 million, not 4.5 million

900p DQ, pretty nice going, definitely stepping up a notch now. I have a feeling it will be close to 1000 by the end of this week alone, expecting a massive weekend



Splatoon! You better reach above and beyond 800 points in the next 3 - 4 days!



Pocky Lover Boy!

You made a few comments about why you think it will, but no amount of conjectures and hypotheses are as reliable as COMG has been in the long run. If a game is underperforming on COMG, chances are, the game is just underperforming.



1.DQXI doing great on Amazon and rakuten
2.Dragon quest heroes and builders had a great ratio for PS4,pretty great ratios
3.I am not expecting 5 million lifetime, maybe 3.5 million is reasonable
