Ring of Fates looks good, but I'm still so bummed out about it not having online play.

Revenant Wings looks great.

A Wonderful World looks like absolute puke but hey, look who's behind it.

Dragon Quest is Dragon Quest, it'ls going to rock.

Ahhh, IaWW and FFXII: RW both looking good. These, along with Heroes of Mana will definitely be mine soon enough. DS 2D FTW, indeed... :D

<3 how Revenant Wings + Wonderful World look. How many games is square enix making for the DS? :lol I'm also interested in DQIX and Front Mission. And I still have to buy FFIII. Oh and the GBA ones of course, can't forget those. I've got IV and will be getting V and VI whenever the hell I start thinning at least my handheld backlog. @_@

yeah, i was very dissappointed at first, and my biggest fear is that the Wii version wont have online either :(

but combining magics online would be really hard. i dont think even voice chat would help much :p "3... 2... 1... NOW! ****!!"

i dont know, i hope the Wii game does have it in some way.

Well, for RoF, since the singleplayer is supposed to have a storyline, I hope it's retained for coop rather than just a dungeon crawl like CoM.
 
The theme of DQIX is to be able to go on adventures with your friends (online/Wifi enabled).

Horii says "If you have a DS all you have to do is turn the switch on and you can adventure with your family, friends, girlfriend or boyfriend."
"Of course it will be a big enough adventure to enjoy on your own as well"
"We want you to get your money's worth"
"We are breaking all sorts of barriers, so it feels like when we were first making DQ1"

So, there you go, just another reason in the never ending list of why Enix >>> Square

Dragon Quest IX and Ring of Fates would look so much better if they didn't have to be pretty much juxtaposed with that beautiful, beautiful 2D from IAWW and especially FFXII:RW. DQIX still passes the "buy" test, though.
 
Just an impression but the text in Revenant Wings seems kind of kiddified, "Alright, we have a new adventure to go on!". They are bragging how it looks like a manga when you talk to people. It looks very good graphically but not much mention of gameplay yet.

Yup, definitely buying all four of these. IAWW and RW are just stunning 2D gorgeousness and FFCC and DQIX are leaps and bounds above any other 3D on the DS.

I'm still amazed at how much awesomeness the DS has on tap. Best handheld ever? Looking more and more likely every damn day.

It looks much better in motion. I think that is true for most, if not all 3D DS games.

****ing Nintendo.

Actually, Crystal Chronicles looks good. I just don't know what to say to DQ9, though. They've actually found a way to offer worse-than-PSX image quality.

Thanks.

Love the art style in it too. Ive always appreciated the 2D art style that a lot of Square RPGs go with. Looks very nice indeed.
