DQX wont do much for the Wii-U.

The Wii-U need more megaton games like Mario to come out :O.

I beg to differ. According to Famitsu, it's one of the top 20 most anticipated game of 2013. Furthermore, having Dragon Quest appear on a specific console, judging by past trends, results into the console of choice for Japan as previous generations have shown :) (PS2, DS, Wii, 3DS)


You've got it backwards.  Square chooses their DQ platform based on the market trends.  DQ9 didn't make DS the console of choice.  The DS had the highest install base, so they made DQ for that system.  Same for the Wii.

Poor wording on my end, should of proof-read. Statement should of been the following: Dragon Quest usually appears on the platform of choice in Japan (installbase) as shown in previous installments (PS2, DS, Wii, 3DS). As a result, the Wii U may become the dedicated platform in Japan if trend continues.
