Pretty strong opening for Dragon Quest. Very nice hold for the Switch from last week!
Switch maintaining a brutal hardware ratio over the competition; 8 to 1 over its nearest rival this week
Good to hear that DQXI is doing well. I got my copy last week.
Sounds good!
I made my contribution to Dragon Quest XI S's sales in the US.
Stronger opening for DQ than I thought.
It's really shocking to see the downplay of dragon quest 11... jesus. It's as if the game didnt exist for 2+ fucking years already on 2 platforms with a combined 176 million or so units..
Yeah bro, people get so fucking defensive about fucking Dragon Quest eh bro. Like wtf bro, seriously. Maybe one day they'll up "switchup" bruh and buy the definitive edition.....bro..
So you parrot the parrot comment and taunt more over nothing? When you're the one who can't handle opposing opinions and initiated a pathetic reply to my comment. And you see nothing hypocritical about that? 42 years old on a Dragon Quest article looking for potshots. Sad and pathetic. Get over yourself.
You cant parrot yourself, smartguy, Haha. I continued off my op, and you're a parrot, parrot. Nice try though. The only thing I find pathetic is a fan who has to downplay things when it hurts their wittle feewings.... like it did yours. I just call it like it is, parrot. Try again, scooter. I havent downplayed anything... because I have no need to. But you, on the other hand.... they have a name for guys like you... damn.. what is it? Oh.. cant say it here. But you definitely are one.
Digital must be crazy good for PS4 Atelier Ryza since they confirmed 150k for this game sales.
That 150k includes Mondays new shipment.
Piece should have been titled "Atelier Ryza sold 150k first week" instead, its way more impressive than DQ11 doing 200k.
Good thing DQ11 did over 300k! ;)
