I very much doubt it will be 1080p, and even 30fps stable. I mean the ps4 version isn't 60fps.

That sounds... believable...
Kingdom Hearts 0.2 is 900p on PS4 and sometimes below 30fps. So maybe people should keep expectations low for Switch version.
I'm just basing this on DQ Heroes being 1080p for some reason. The performance isn't that great, yet they didn't choose to drop resolution. I'd prefer anything that kept the framerate stable.
The games arent developed by the same studios and i doubt SE would be fine with a Switch version running at a much worse framerate than the 3DS/PS4 version. BUt we will see....
DQ is a Vita port.
No it's not. Why do people spread inaccurate stuff?
0.2 is completely half-assed on PS4, there's no reason it runs in this state.
Nope, it's a PS3 port.
Anyway, excited to see what they'll show about the Switch version - if they show anything at all.
Didn't know that. My point still stands, there's no way to compare dq ports with a dqxi port.
I actually think this might be pretty accurate and very pleasing to all JRPG fans, enough time to finish everything from Q1 2017(+P5&NNK2), not too far away from keeping us from having constant Japan goodness.
Doubt they'll be able to release it before their anniversary year ends, late July to early September might be realistic (on PS4/3DS). Maybe early next year for Switch?
I wonder how the Western release will turn out. I'm sure there will be one, but if it needs Nintendo again to bring this over, it'd be Switch/3DS only. On the other hand, if SquareEnix will localize this I fear we'll lose the 3DS version. Not expecting this before the end of next year in the West, though.

DQXI on Switch isn't a port though.

This and Ni No Kuni 2 (assuming it comes out this year) will be a fantastic year for classic style JRPG's. They look like ps1/ps2 generation games made for current platforms which I yearn for.
The look of these games is infinitely more appealing to me than something like FF15, which is somewhat ironic given it was the ps1 FF's that I spent the majority of my childhood playing.

Yeah, it's vaporware.

Good to see that is close to release.
I hope we get some news of a possible western release soon.
According to DigitalFoundry it runs at 1080p almost locked 30fps on the base model. But it has frame pacing issues.

2018 is fine, NNK2 is going to take me a while.

I wasn't talking about a simultaneous release date in the west with Japan, but the simultaneous release of the three versions of the game in the west.
Lmao
I sincerly hope I don't have to eat crows in 3 weeks. Horii, don't make me look like a fool, please >_>
For those who want to bet a release date (for 3DS and PS4 at least)
Main
May = DQX 3.5.5
June = FFXIV next expansion
July = FFXIIHD
Late July/August = DQX 3.5.9 (END!, big event!, "You gonna skip all of your schedule/vacations for this!" -Saito Yosuke- does he mean DQXI release after the ending of DQX v3?)
Sub
August/September = DQX PS4 beta test
^Later = DQX Switch beta test
Main 2
Autumn~Winter = Dragon Quest X next expansion
Fill DQXI here some date you find it reasonable.

60k Disgaea 5. Believe!
I'll guess a specific date: 7 September.
Argh. I knew you would've said that. Horii, don't make me look even more like a fool, come on :|
The mistery still stands about what that post from the blog was, since it turned out to be inaccurate on several levels. I fear it was probably its own specific store's preorders/shipments ratio, but we've extrapolated thinking it were one of its classic leaks

Is it only an announcement? There's no gameplay clips or anything?
It says they will be doing other stuff besides announcing the release date so I think some new gameplay will be shown.
発表会では、発売日情報だけではなく様々な新情報をお届けしますのでお楽しみに！
Not just the release date but loads of new info!

Hoping for Fall this year. The beginning of 2017 has been bananas, but there's far fewer games I want to play on the back half...
They also released DQVII in all Langues and DQVIII both for 3DS...
Yeah when I said DQ7 I meant the one on 3ds, sorry
And yeah I forgot the mention VIII also
So from what I see, all main DQ games has been localized the past years (except 10).
All things considered, it might turn out better, since UE4 is fully supported on the Switch.
Sure, there will be significant differences between Switch and PS4, but I'm relatively positive that it will at least run better than DQH2.
it could be both, docked will show a less pretty PS4 version, undocked will show the 3ds Version
My phone supports UE4 and I can tell uou that a DQXI port on it would run much much worse than the ps4 version. Engine support is nice but it's not a huge determining factor here.
UE4 on your phone =/= UE4 on a proper video game console.
Citation needed, because i'm pretty sure that's not true.
Unless you're strictly talking in terms of power, in which case, sure, but then UE4 on a 5 year old pc is not the same as UE4 on a current PC either.
UE4 on phone is a mobile version of UE4. It's still technically called UE4, but it's not used the same way and doesn't reflect the same performance as UE4. That's why you can have UE4 games on a device less powerful than, say, a Wii U, which wasn't UE4-compatible.
Documentation is different too : https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/Platforms/Mobile/ , https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/Platforms/Mobile/Performance/
isn't the code just as portable, though? How is the difference between mobile UE4 and console UE4 any greater than console to PC UE4? Obviously the backend parts have to be tailored for mobile, but it's still "UE4" and the mobile part is just a label.
