Now Square just needs to show the Crystal Bearers for the Wii and I'll be happy with them

 

[JCX]

Now I wait for KH3 for wii

 

[theultimo]

huh

Dragon Quest is betraying everyone! :lol :lol

 

[Green Tentacle]

For a second I thought this was an animated gif of a new DS game.

That would be so epic.

 

[Meier]

Insanity.

 

[Cosmo Clock 21]

Assuming the blog posted in the OP isn't lying or anything, I'm confirming DQX for Wii.

 

[Zeenbor]

Any word on release date for DQX?

 

[Link]

I think my "third parties are treating the Wii like crap" stance was just bitchslapped into next week.

 

[Darkman M]

Dragon Quest X, Monster Hunter 3, and Tatsunoko vs Capcom.

OMG the Wii has "big hitters" coming up! :O

Yes, in Japan that is.

 

[Zeenbor]

Any word on release date for DQX?

 

[Ydahs]

"DORAKUE SUKUENI past president of the "Pokemon may be more interesting story now ... (laughs)." また、「ドラゴンクエスト9は皆様の期待を裏切ることはない！」と断言。 The "Dragon Quest 9 to betray the expectations of everyone!" And asserted. やってくれますね……。 ... I will. "

Iwata: [laughs]

 

[Shadowlink]

Now I wait for KH3 for wii

Oh yea that and Crystal Bearers

 

[Brofist]

I guess that answers the question of whether the Wii will gain an RPG presence or not. :lol

Well I wouldn't go proclaiming it the next PS2 just yet, but yeah of course it's big.

 

[Zoe]

Any word on release date for DQX?

They gotta take care of IX first.

 

[Defuser]

Meanwhile, SCEJ employees is banging their heads against the wall.

It takes a big man to admit when he's proven wrong.

 

[manueldelalas]

Message from the President Wada SUKUENI 14:32. "Iwata, the president can rarely appeared to be improbable, so I'm really pleased," "the completion of the DORAKUE IX, and are really relieved. Ah, the feeling was good,"
Iwata said Nintendo platform 14:27. Huge smile! Iwata said "Wii in DORAKUE X (Ten) have been developed, thank you."
14:25 Horii said "Wii in the Dragon Quest X (Ten) has also developed a" PORORI. Huh? Great balls of fire

 

[TheGreatDave]

DAMMIT I wanted DQX on the PS3. I hate this damn generation and everything it stands for.

Tell me more.

 

[schuelma]

So I guess the next question is whether 3rd parties are going to fully jump on board after this. It certainly seemed to me that following the DQ9 announcement was when 3rd parties started putting every RPG known to man on DS..

 

[sprocket]

awesome!

 

[Mr.Wuggles]

WTF they even showed a trailer of DQX?

damn, they should have at least released DQIX first. DQIX was announced 2 years after DQVIII RELEASED. DQX has been announced when DQIX hasn't even released!

anyway, i'm sure DQWii is going to be a story-driven DQ like modern DQ's, as opposed to DQIX with it's "make your own character" theme.

 

[Y2Kev]

Well I wouldn't go proclaiming it the next PS2 just yet, but yeah of course it's big.

It's like four years away.

 

[Hcoregamer00]

Meanwhile, SCEJ employees is banging their heads against the wall.

Too bad they can't record it and post it on youtube.

 

[MarzipaNMOS]

Uh, I think that is 2 or 3.
O god no...

maybe im just too new to DQ, but I've seen the Level 5 dislike alot. Why?

 

[noirebanana]

 

[Blablurn]

hehe jonnyram. well played.

 

[Cosmo Clock 21]

Any word on release date for DQX?

Nothing given so far other than "under development".

 

[Saint Gregory]

I think my "third parties are treating the Wii like crap" stance was just bitchslapped into next week.

Don't fret, it's still true in the west... for now

 

[Regulus Tera]

Can someone who speaks Japanese give us a proper translation?

Maybe you, duckroll?

This made me laugh. :lol

 

[Meier]

Square Enix just shot themselves in the foot.

I don’t know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I’m an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It’s not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.

What this means is the japanese public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase DQIX for DS, nor will they purchase any of Square Enix’s games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Square Enix has alienated an entire market with this move.

Square Enix, publicly apologize and cancel DQX for Wii or you can kiss your business goodbye.

lmao :lol :lol :lol :lol The (I'm an expert) line always kills me. :lol

I had been thinking the RPG presence on the Wii would be comparable to the GameCube in Japan. Obviously that line of thinking is now out the window.

DQIV, DQV, DQVI remade for DS to go with DQIX. DQVII remade for Wii before DQX?

 

[Grampa Simpson]

Great Balls of Fire!

 

[MvmntInGrn]

Cool I guess (didn't like DQVIII but I would try again)

 

[Link]

It takes a big man to admit when he's proven wrong.

Well, if this doesn't cause a seismic shift, nothing's going to.

GREAT BALLS OF FIRE
GREAT BALLS OF FIRE
GREAT BALLS OF FIRE
GREAT BALLS OF FIRE

wait, WHAT!??!?!?

I'm gonna need a translation of the translation. :lol

 

[Hcoregamer00]

So I guess the next question is whether 3rd parties are going to fully jump on board after this. It certainly seemed to me that following the DQ9 announcement was when 3rd parties started putting every RPG known to man on DS..

Well, considering that Japanese developers are starting to do so, this will likely accelerate this move to the Wii.

Nothing more really, since the 3rd parties are starting to move to the Wii.

 

[Basileus777]

This shouldn't surprise anyone. Square Enix would be stupid to put DQX on anything other than the Wii or DS.

TOKYO, Dec 10 (Reuters) - Japanese game software maker Square Enix Holdings Co Ltd (9684.T: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) said on Wednesday it plans to launch the newest version of its popular "Dragon Quest" game series on March 28 for 5,980 yen ($64.73).

I expect SE to give Wii at least some RPG love leading up to it..so far, nada.

 

[Hours Left]

This is awesome.

 

[theultimo]

The create-a-character shots just posted look awesome on DQIX at least.

 

[Acid08]

Now I wait for KH3 for wii

That's a disgusting thought.

 

[Grampa Simpson]

I'm gonna need a translation of the translation. :lol

all you need to know is:

GREAT BALLS OF FIRE!

 

[Pojo]

Tell me more.

I actually will.

Unless they radically change DQ, it can't benefit from the Wii. It could be the most beautiful thing the world has ever seen if it were to come out on the PS3, as well as boost the stagnant sales.

But Wii it is!

Capcom just posted this on their MH3 Tri webstie:lol
