HOw many copies did dragon quest 8 sell. I could easily see this surpassing it quite easily. BUt it's not in japan where i see it making up ground. Handhld games tend to be less of an investment. The cheaper price will make it easier to sell to people that havent bought the games in the past, primarily North America and Europe.
You also have to remember that there arent a huge amount of hardcore RPG's on the DS. Especially compared to the PS2. The genre isnt really canibilizing itself in this situation.
