Why not both?


They never do more than one console for Dragon Quest. Don't ask me why, they just don't.

Does anyone still care? Seems like the series has lost some of its appeal as well. I for one am not really looking forward to any new entries.


LOL   Yup, I think millions of people still care actually.

Putting DQXI on the PS4 would be idiotic when you consider that the 3DS holds a current userbase of over 15.7 Million units in Japan (which is almost double what the PS4 has Worldwide) and the last real handheld Dragon Quest, on the Nintendo DS, is the best selling game in the series.

That said, this is Square Enix and for once this is a stupid decision I wouldnt mind

Well, considering that the game would release in 2016 at earliest, I don't think current userbase comparisons are all that important.

Does anyone still care? Are you nuts ? It's one of the best JRPG's still and so far it hasn't had the problems latter Final Fantasies have had.

DQ9 was definitely not very good. Was pretty disappointed with it, and it was a definite step down from DQ8.

Its never too late. They just done it with Kingdom Hearts and with the meltdowns of FFXIII :)

That said, Miyake-san also mentioned that user trends show that the series appeals to an audience that isn’t necessarily playing on dedicated gaming consoles, and he wants the franchise to be accessible everywhere, so more mobile Dragon Quest games seem to be definitely on the menu (surprising absolutely no one).

Did everyone not notice the bolded?  I'm surprised Nikkom hasn't jumped on this thread yet XD.

Edit: Just saw Nikkom



This article is terribly stupid. One, it doesn't prove anything... Seriously. Two, Horii said it wouldn't be on any smartphone, so... You know, the whole final part of this is false.

OR, and this is a biggie, Square Enix is a terrible company where their highest up employees don't communicate and because of that rumors like this are formed. (I think that's the option I'm going for.)



Will we see a DQ game on Sony systems? Perhaps.
Will it be DQXI? Unlikely.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

I don´t know what the fuck Square enix is doing so who knows what this means

Where do you think DQXI will be ? Dont tell me 3DS since we know they want to make this one on big screen.


So One ? Wii U ? So you see it's not so much unlikely compared to these2

 

Oh wait !! ... SE told recently that they want to support the Vita so maybe....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No you really believed their lies ?



Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m
