And most on ERA expected DQXI Switch sells more than PS4 lol
Hm? People were expecting a ~175-250K opening on average in the prediction leagues there and were quite impressed by the 300K+ opening for a definitive edition. I guess I'm just confused by this comment.

If you back when the PS4 version released everybody was expecting the Switch version to sell more in Japan.
The guy that does the thread Cris or something like was adamant about that to the point to say I don't understand the Japanese market.

Maybe they changed minds.

Anyway Square Enix probably expected way more double dippers.

Maybe they were thinking that if it was a simultaneous release, the Switch version could do better than PS4, not when the Switch version is releasing over 2 years later. I really doubt Square Enix was expecting more double dippers, as getting at least 400-500K in Japan is pretty solid already (1/6). Now they probably were hoping for better Western sales however.

I don't know... I have a feeling the huge delay for Switch was due SE wanting to increase double dippers.

Simultaneous release could make some 3DS buyers shift to Switch while the delay made increased sales with doubles.
