Would love to see sales numbers in the US. Last time I checked it was still at #6 in the eshop and has been for a couple days, being beat out by Zelda, a game for 9 cents, and a couple $20ish games. Great game, hope it does well enough that the US will get whatever DQ game comes next! I am new to the DQ series but have been turned into a huge fan because of DQ 11!
First time DQ player, this game has just been AMAZING so far, always loved JRPGs and SRPGs just never got around to this and Fire Emblem until this year. What great games, ready to try more!
@JEM Yeah but it should still be mentioned, I get they don't wanna advertise something that is not out yet but they always mention DLC so pretty much the same thing. I agree about not changing the rating though. They did finally update the article mentioning this, it was updated some time after my comment.
You guys should really update this review, you say "complete removal of online" and while that is true you also need to mention that prior to release the Dev's stated several times that online is coming in a future update for the game at no additional cost, not mentioning this in the article is creating a lot of "not buying this game now".
Not asking you to change the review, but mentioning this in the article should be a must.
@CupidStunt Understandable, I skipped those wanting it on the Switch (even though it was not announced at that time, I knew it would). But after playing that then going to the Switch I bet you see a big difference.
I downloaded the demo and pre-ordered at the same time. I have been wanting to play this from when it launched on PC a while back but, I knew I would like it better on the Switch so I waited. Played 1 1/2 hours of the demo and made myself put it down (so hard to not play it!), we are a month away from launch so I will wait for full release
I am loving the blue lions route. But I can see this as they were advertised/pushed a lot more than the rest. I will try this house on next play and then Deer.
@Faruko When did they announce one with almost double the battery life? Last I head the updated version will have increased battery life, not close to double.
And this just explains another reason EA is where it is today, they have fallen so far! Don't want to make games for the biggest selling console for the last two years is a very interesting decision to make as a company that wants to grow profits.
They are sorta correct though, its not that I would rather play the games they released on PC or other consoles though, its just that I would rather not buy their games anymore on any system.
I just made the switch from all physical to all digital about a month ago, I love it. I just have to be a little more careful when buying games I am not sure about due to not being able to resell.

Re: After Claiming 95% Of All Hardware Sold In Japan Last Week, Nintendo Apologises Over Ring Fit Adventure Shortages
My wife and I play this 3 days every week. Very fun game and it kicks my butt, good workout. She never plays games but enjoys this a lot.
I hope they add DLC in the future with more mini games!
Re: The Third Wave Of DLC For Fire Emblem: Three Houses Is Now Available
