Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake: A Timeless Classic

Square Enix’s Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake has proven to be a massive hit in Japan. The game’s blend of classic RPG gameplay and modern HD-2D visuals has resonated with both longtime fans and newcomers. With over 912,000 units sold, it’s clear that Dragon Quest 3 is still as popular as ever.

Nintendo Switch: The Undisputed Champion

The Nintendo Switch continues to dominate the Japanese console market. The Switch OLED Model remains the best-selling console, followed closely by the Switch Lite. Nintendo’s strong lineup of exclusive titles, including Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Animal Crossing: New Horizons, has contributed to the Switch’s enduring popularity.

PlayStation 5: A Strong Contender

The PlayStation 5, particularly the PS5 Pro, is also performing well in Japan. Sony’s latest console benefits from a strong lineup of exclusive titles, such as Horizon Forbidden West and God of War Ragnarök. However, the Switch’s dominance and the ongoing global chip shortage have limited the PS5’s availability and sales.

Xbox Series Consoles: A Niche Market

Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S continue to struggle in the Japanese market. While Microsoft has made efforts to appeal to Japanese gamers, the lack of region-specific games and marketing has hindered the consoles’ adoption.

  1. Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake (Switch/PS5)
