“To my knowledge there’s no plans to bring 7th Dragon westward at this present time I’m afraid. But never say never.” – SEGA’s official Twitter

It’d be a shame if 7th Dragon never made it outside of Japan. Although the DS has a number of RPGs, I really like the style of the game. Hopefully it’ll release in other territories sometime in the future.


We posted a piece of information from this interview yesterday, but now you can check out the full version…

Media Create has published the latest hardware sales figures from Japan. The results are below.

DSi LL – 100,553
PS3 – 34,752
Wii – 32,844
PSP – 32,752
DSi – 32,070
DS Lite – 5,051

PSP go – 4,574
Xbox 360 – 4,085
PS2 – 2,024

For comparison’s sake, here are the numbers from November 9 (last week).

PSP 38,770
PS3 38,498
DSi 33,749
Wii 26,764
PSP go 6,427
DS Lite 5,036
Xbox 360 4,124
PS2 2,031

Also, here’s how Famitsu’s data stacks up…

DSi LL – 103,524
PSP – 33,000
DSi – 32,000
PS3 – 29,000
WII – 29,000
PSP go – 4,800
DS Lite – 2,700

The DSi LL made its debut in Japan and sold about 100,000 units according to Media Create. There were no huge changes in numbers from last week, although there were some drops across the board. There will be a number of significant releases on December 3, so it should be interesting to see how those games affect sales. New Super Mario Bros. Wii received a perfect 40/40 from well-known Japanese magazine Famitsu, and that title is one of the releases that is expected to do well next week.
