Lose interest in the game due to lack of info (Switch).

It ll probably come out at some point, just you might have to wait a additional half year, or year's time.

The news that its not comeing to 3DS sucks though.

Because the 3DS models are all backwards compat, to play DS/DSi games, you could play:

DQ4,5,6,9 from the DS And DQ7,8,11 from the 3DS.

It woulda been cool to have DQ4 -> 11 playable on the 3DS.

Sadly thats not going to happend, unless some "fan translation" of the japanese 3DS game is in the works.

I'm thinking that maybe Nintendo will localize the 3DS version like the others.

I can understand SE, as the pc and ps4 versions have the potential to sell more than the 3DS version in the west.
