Neogaf huh? And what data is this gaf member using? its vgchartz

Love the hypocrisy of gaming media, vgchartz is not reliable source but gaf member using vgchartz database is.


I'm using NPD. 

This data isn't on Chartz. I don't use data from Chartz. Get your facts right before posting. 

I don't even know why I visit this made up website sometimes. I guess it's just to laugh at posts like yours. 


LOL then provide link to npd data base/pdf, Where everyone can see the source. No source no proove thats how the world works, and these journalists take your forum post for granted and make news out of this.

Check the NPD thread, Creamsugar posted the data.

I think Hyrule Warriors is fun. I had played DW games before, but love zelda games too much to pass on this.

If they make Dragon Quest Heroes an international game in sure it could break the record. I just really hope they change the name since there's already a game called Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime

Well in the US That didn't make DW > HW despite the WiiU low userbase.

Besides, DQ is huge in japan, not so much here. I think many are Overestimating DQ: Heros in the west (well US).

 

Edit: Yeap, didn't realize it intill i saw the database. HW is over 400k, and it'll leg out probably another 150k-250k lifetime in the US (which is rare for a Musou game, at least in japan).

If you put a comparison for HW againsnt the Dragon Quest games for the US, it looks like this...

1. DQ:VIII [PS2] (around/ a little under 600k)

2. DQ:IX [DS] (563k)

3. DQ [NES] (Between 450k-490k)

4. HW [WiiU] (400k+ So far)

5. DQ:IV [DS] (272k)

Everything else from there is between 80k-200k.

 

As you can see, if you think DQ:Heros will beat HW, that means it has to beat almost all DQ games too!!!! O.o

Witness the power of Zelda! It makes stuff that doesn't sell... to sell!

I say we give a bit of Zelda to anything that struggles to sell! You name it, Trauma Triforce, Hyrule Odyssey, Sonic and the Master Sword, Zero Escape from Zelda's room. The possibilites are endless!


BlazZelda? Guilty Hylian? Link: Ace Attorney? Zelda May Cry?



Bet with Xander XT: 

I can beat more games on his 3DS than he can on my PSVita in a month. Loser has to buy the winner a game on his/her handheld Guess who won? http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=193531

Me!

Thing is, SW wise being released on a popular home console vs a popular handheld in the US makes a big difference.

 

DQVII was very late in PS life, but DQVIII shows potential fans on PS. Though its been 10+ years...
