People were thinking that was going to be the name of Bravely Default when the trademark popped up. Then, All the Bravest was revealed and, well, back to square one.

Yeah, I was wondering if he missed the reveal of All The Bravest.

It's coming out in NA in October. Tell all your friends and enter it into Amazon and Gamestop's computers and then Nintendo/SE will have to release it or else they'll be really, really embarrassed.

You mean Rocket Slime 3, Dragon Quest X, and DQM: Terrys Wonderland?

Only one of those is a mainline DQ game, and even that one happens to be Wii (dead platform) MMORPG (risky genre, especially on consoles). None of them should serve as an indicator of whether they will translate DQX.

DQVII localization is pretty much a sure thing. DQX will likely come as well, but I think they're waiting for the Wii U version before they localize it.

Think I'm going to hold off until I finish Layton vs AA and Bravely Default.

I know if I buy this, both games will remain unfinished.

Then honestly, DQVII should last me at least four months.

Good time to be a "casual" gamer in Japan.

So three points lower than the original? Not much of a difference really.

Thanks. I watched the beginning of this when it was live, but quit because I just wanted to see it all for the first time in my hands.

Just means that SE didn't give them enough money / Famitsu didn't deem it important enough to score higher. Famitsu scores don't reflect game quality even a little.

Just read (ie skimmed) an interview on Dengeki where one of the devs said you can switch between two different camera angles! Can't find any info/comparison shots, maybe one of you will have better luck:

Based Google Translate:

But if you continue to see the three-dimensional human beings I actually impossible, eyes and head fucked so tired, I'm that require adjustment.

lol.

Would these be the two different camera angles? The pics are right under the part where they discuss that.

Overhead like DQ IX, and something that's more behind the back?

For the love of god please localize this!! The 3DS is starving for old school JRPGs

If this didn't come to America I'd be surprised, seeing as they brought DQ V and VI over kicking and screaming (maybe that had to do with promoting IX, not sure).

Didn't Reggie say he put almost 200 hours into DQIX? You'd think this was a no brainer.
Click to expand...

Add to that this game has some modifications to bring it closer to DQ9.

IMO, I feel like Nintendo would be more than happy to bring this one over. The problem here I think is Square Enix as they would be ones localizing it... and DQ7 is a freakin' huge translation undertaking.

VII's huge script might prove daunting after V and VI's mediocre sales.

Nintendo/SE might've skipped Rocket Slime 3 and Terry's Wonderland (barring surprise late localizations) but I don't see them skipping DQ VII, large script be damned.

I was charged by Play-Asia on the 3rd, but they won't send it out until Thursday morning, as usual. I'll be playing it on Friday.

I'd be rather shocked if DQ VII and Bravely Default didn't end up getting localized in the next 12-15 months or so.

It's sad that we even have to have this conversation... I just hope they see it as one last shot on new hardware and we at least see this one if nothing else.

So hyped for this! I'd be grabbing it today if my local shop wasn't terrified of getting caught by SE.

SE games are the only ones they refuse to sell on a Wednesday. Boooo.

My copy shipped last night from amazon.jp. Hoping it arrives early today but probably will show up tomorrow morning. Can't wait to play it after work!

didn't iwata say the other day they were going to continue localising 3rd party games? seems like an obvious candidate.

I'll be buying this as soon as it hits the eShop! Really looking forward to a good old meaty RPG.
