Forums - Sales - FF or DQ, Which is The Bigger Franchise In Japan?

So, both Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest are some of the biggest RPG franchises in Japan, I want to see what people think it bigger........here are some sales of earlier titles:

FFIII - 1.40m

FFIV - 1.43m

FFV - 2.45m

FFVI - 2.55m

FFVII - 3.93m

FFVIII - 3.64m

FFIX - 2.80m

FFX - 3.02m

FFXII - 2.42m

 

DQI - 2.00m

DQII - 2.56m

DQIII - 3.87m

DQIV - 3.04m

DQV - 2.79m

DQVI - 3.19m

DQVII - 4.12m

DQVIII - 3.68m

 

Clearly Both OWN, sales are huge, but which one is the larger franchise right now?

 

Also which one do you expect to sell more in Japan or DQX or FFXIII?

Around the Network

I expect Final Fantasy 13 to sell like crazy and to be the biggest hyped game of all time (in Japan).

So for me, FF13 > DQX

As for the bigger franchise, That goes to Final Fantasy also



                            

Oh come on, not this again.
DQ is bigger than FF in Japan.



"And yet, I've realized that maybe living a "decent" life means you won't ever have a "good" life."

 

FF for right now.




Dragon Quest of course.

Oh yea, why did you leave earlier DQ's out.
DQ/DW 3 sold 3.77m in Japan, more than pretty much all except FFVII and DQVII
DQ/DW 4 also has 3.04m.
