over 2 million first week, 4 million lifetime

I think it'll be on par with DQVIII's launch and DQVII's lifetime.

In Japan. I expect another 500k-1 million in North America and Europe.

Hmmm...the first DQ game the I played (DQ VII) was the highest selling game in the series? I really should go back and finish it (just played disc 1)

OT: I think it'll be a bit lower than but close to DQ VIII's numbers

2.1M opening week.

I hope you're right. I got vg$ riding on that number lol

2.2 million first week with 4.3 million lifetime.

It is the only game that has chance to surpass FFVIII and Halo 3 OP week in one region alone, it will do 2 million first week at least or even 3 million with luck. And it even may have a 1.5 to 1.8 million first week and have second week like DQVII, having another million in the second week.

I think it'll eclipse 2 million for first week sales. I hope it does well...It looks fantastic.

That Dragon Quest I guy looks so sad in that graph lol.

1.8 to 2.1 million first week. Over 4 million lifetime. I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up being the best selling DQ ever within Japan and WW.
