Square's only released as far as I can tell two Final Fantasy games for Nintendo home consoles in the past 20 years or so ... GameCube got Crystal Chronicles and Wii got Crystal Bearers. Not exactly a big deal. 

If Wii U was getting DQXI it should be getting DQ Heroes and DQ Builders, that's just how the Enix side works, if you're getting DQ spin-offs it's because you're getting the main one later on. 

By what Ali_16x said the more is more at 4+ by what he listed, still small, but still something, which shows the point, small random spin-off goes to Nintendo usually, main goes for Sony,   I'm only saying the opposite occurs for Draon Quest.

Though as I also said that is not always the case, GBC, GBA, and PS3 demonstrate that, and if you want to call remakes not main ones, then the 3DS is also sign of that.

@Hynad:  We do not know if Horii believes in that and will follow suit, so without knwoing what he thinks that is irrelevant.  And that is what I said, well in a way, because the argument has always been that Dragon Quest goes to the console with the highest install base in Japan, which at the moment seeing DQXI is for a home console, the one with the highest install base in Gen 8 is Wii U, so going by the pattern that would be the console in which the game will release.


Yes but lately Square-Enix has said they want to push the PS4. With all the DQ games coming out for the PS4 so far, it's a fair guess to think the next installment in the main series will also find its home there.
