According to Cosmo Securities analyst Takashi Oka, Square Enix’s Dragon Quest IX on DS, scheduled for release in Japan in November, will sell five million units in Japan alone and should generate revenue of $190 million.
“It’s not surprising Dragon Quest IX for the portable console sold twice as many units as a version for stationary game machines,” Oka wrote in a Japanese-language report (translated by Bloomberg).
Dragon Quest IX had originally been planned for release in 2007, but the game was delayed – Square Enix citing the need for more time to make a better game.
