Maybe they just realized the game was called DragonQuest and immediately ordered more?
And even more important, will the increased orders be needed? Will this game sell the way the retailers seem to feel it will? Personally I'm not entirely sure about the whole thing. I'm kind of still on the fence about Minna. I really love the hotshots golf games however so my bias for that game is certainly at play here, but I think it will do exceptionally well for a PS3 game. But Jesus Christ, they are going to be advertising DQ:S in Movie Theaters? Thats pretty impressive too, but Minna Golf also has a console bundle! And those help sales also as it gives a discount to new console owners. I'm going to be looking closely at how these two titles square off against each other. What are your thoughts?
