Forums - Sales - Dragon Quest IX (July 11th) - Prediction

Dragon Quest IX will be released in just one week, July 11th.

According to Sinobi its first shipment will exceed 2 million units.

The best-selling game of the franchise is Dragon Quest VII with 3.893.293 units.

Dragon Quest VIII sold less units than its predecessor but it's the chapter with the higher first week sales, 2.236.881 units. (The game was released on Saturday so actually it's just two days)

 

Do you think Dragon Quest IX will surpass Dragon Quest VIII first week sales and Dragon Quest VII LTD sales?

 



Around the Network

I'm fairly sure it'll be the highest selling game in the series when all is said and done. I have a feeling that the game will break 2m first week, and if it doesn't, it'll be very close to it.



I hope it doesn't follow the DQ8 formula too closely.

I didn't like 8 as much as the others.



We'll miss you George.

It will outsell DQ1's lifetime in the first week.

Should outsell DQ4, stopping at 3.35m



Leatherhat on July 6th, 2012 3pm. Vita sales:"3 mil for COD 2 mil for AC. Maybe more. "  thehusbo on July 6th, 2012 5pm. Vita sales:"5 mil for COD 2.2 mil for AC."

I hope it does 2.1 mil. That was my guess for the P.L.



Ask stefl1504 for a sig, even if you don't need one.

Can't wait to see the numbers. I expect complete sellout of first shipment and 3.5 mil easily by the end of the year.
