Dragon Quest X for 3DS sells so well that Square-Enix halts sales because of demand

So it wasn't reported after all.

It was, I doubt my memory is faling me. I just can't be asked to find it through the 15+ pages of the MC thread or the previous one. Sorry.

Anyway like I said its been proven with the low debut and high sell through. Shipment was small.

Give a source or stop making claims like that. It is spreading misinformation.

Misinformation? Even if you don't believe me, its not hard to logically come to the same conclusion.

So yes small shipment.
 
So.. why aren't we getting this game in the US again? Realm Reborn is doing pretty good.
I don't think this is comparable as game streaming would be way more demanding than a "simple" MMORPG infrastructure wise.
IIRC, they had to set up particular partnerships in Japan to get it running.

You said it was reported. But apparently it wasn't. So that is misinformation.
 
Shipment was not small after all: DQX sold about 60k units in its debut week, which is quite a lot considering the type of project is. Wii U version sold 36k retail in comparison.

What's that? Silly rumor about DQX not selling so hot without any evidence to back it up turned out to be false?

... Wow, this seems familiar somehow... :)

What did the Wii version sell retail in comparison? The WiiU version tanked mostly due to people buying the Wii version for cheap and running it on a WiiU (this is why you have to buy both the PS3 and PC versions of FF14).
