Yep Mistwalker is not owned by Microsoft so they can develop for any publisher they please on any console. Just like Epic Games. They just can't release Blue Dragon or Lost Odyssey games on a competitor's console (MS allowed Viva Pinata on the DS too so I take it MS doesn't see DS as competition) since Microsoft owns the copyright to those games. But they are free to release anything else on anything they want.
I'm hoping that they're announcing Blue Dragon 2 or Lost Odyssey 2 (Lost Odyssey doesn't seem suited for a sequel though unless they want to do things the Final Fantasy way. Creating a whole new story for each game). But it could just be that they're going to make a Wii game since apparently they have Wii dev kits.
Their second Blue Dragon DS game is going to be an action rpg with online co-op apparently. Sounds like it would be worth checking out. Their first DS Blue Dragon was a RTS/RPG so I skipped that. Maybe RTS can be implement well on the DS but I just don't see how the stylus can replace a mouse for RTS gameplay.
