Solid sales, but could be better. I am thinking despite being an excellent remake with much improved graphics, the ghosts of the original game still haunt this one. Although I don't think DQ8 will do that much better since it is coming out so soon and right before Switch is rumored to be releasing. But then again DQ8 is one of the more popular games among long time DQ fans so they may surprise me. Message | Report |

Considering the situation, i'd say these are certainly good enough sales. In the first 6 weeks it's sold about ~120k in the west, that's probably bagged them a good profit discounting translating, which I believe Nintendo covered, so Squeenix didn't have to worry about that. There's still a holiday to go too. Message | Report |

Well, clearly we don't deserve these games getting released here. I don't want to read any complaints in the future, about Nintendo or square Enix not supporting DQ in the west, it sold so bad... Such a fantastic game, bought it day one, going to support 8 day one as well. It should have sold up to now at least double the sales it has now. Message | Report |

It's certainly on-track to. USA FW was about 1.7x more, while EU has 4x more, and it should easily outpace the sales of DQ6. Hopefully that will convince Squeenix that, while not as big as Japan, there is a big enough market to translate and sell to the west, making a good amount of money in the process/ Message | Report |
