A list of the top 50 (well, 49 technically) best-selling Japanese games of all time has been compiled. The classic Pokemon Red/Blue/Green/Yellow titles stand at the top of the list with over 10 million units sold. Meanwhile, the recently released Dragon Quest IX is already within the top 15. You can check out the full list in the image attached to this post above.

– Each character probably can carry 15 items
– Pace of the battles can quicken with auto-targeting
– Players can complete a bunch of sidequests that are optional
