Forums - Sales - First day sales in Japan (7/12)

Millionseller?!... Nah. Look what happened to Phantom hourglass ... It will reach 800k easily... 900k at the very best. There are ~3 million Wii's sold in Japan... So 1 mil would be ~33% attach ratio. Which is too high. I think its gonna sell around

350k first week... Then around

180k 2nd... 

90k 3th...

55k 4th...

32k 5th...

24k 6th etc...

So in 6 weeks, we''ll probably see the game around 720-750k... And then it's still selling above 10k a week if it has the legs i predict it will have.

But a nice fact (This one is to tease em Sony fans...) It looks like Dragon Quest Swords is about to outsell the best selling PS3 game in Japan in its first week(!!!)

 

Oh heck: This game COULD be a Wii million seller in Japan alone. In the end... Wii still have ~3-4 years left ...

 

EDIT: Is this game packed in with Wii?!... Cause i know for sure i saw a picture of it.

DQS wont hit 1m most likely. It'll probably be a little bit more frontloaded than Zelda:TP.

IMO, it should hit around 300-320k first week, and have a 55 to 60% drop. 600k should be attainable.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Y-Koron, any word of increased Wii supply to support the DQS launch?



I see it slowing to a stop around the 600-700 mark, but it the first day sales isn't really all that much to go by



Almost any attach ratio is possible with a Dragon Quest game (even a spinoff)...

 Wii supply is more than usual.



If you need something about Japanese market from the perspective of Japanese, please contact me.

Around 100,000 I imagine..

Is that about right for Wii hardware this week?



People are difficult to govern because they have too much knowledge.

When there are more laws, there are more criminals.

I'd say 90-100k...However, Wii hardware sales havent dipped (to assume holdbacks), so who knows.

Uwa! Over 200.000?! Amazing! Can't wait to receive the game meself. Most likely will take about a week or so.



This profile is no longer in use, see my other profile *~Onna76~*

As both a Dragon Quest universe game and a motion based Wii game, DQS has potential to do a lot more than a million. I see this game having long and tall legs and moving alot of systems. Well, if there are any systems that aren't moving themselves that is. 



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.
