Dragon Quest 11 Revealed For PS4 and Nintendo 3DS

no comments? oh thats right you people prefer to be playing call of duty. this game is gonna rock!

I'll be honest I've been playing my ps2 more then my ps4 and that's because of the massive jrpg collection it has. Let the ps4 be like the ps2 and get some jrpg gems in there

I hope this is a single player game, I head a DQ was comming as an MMO.
But im really interested if its a single player in the style of journey of the cursed king, that was an awesome game.

yea cool open world unreal engine 4 graphics and then it gets ruined after phasing into an archaic battle system where you dont even see your characters on screen fighting on top of that.

I was all excited for the PS4 iteration. Haven't really followed DQ since PS2 era because I don't own handhelds. Then at the very end of the video they are explaining how all the previous DQ's never made it stateside. Wah Wah Wahhhhh. There goes my excitement.

As a die hard DQ fan I must say this is a huge tease knowing SquareEnix has little plan to release these games in the USA.

I hope Enix don't decide to drop the Nintendo one down the line it seems unlikely considering the relationship they have but stranger things have happen

"Since the stream was hosted in Japanese, specifics . . . are unavailable for now."

C'mon Gamespot, you deal in an industry with a huge Japanese component--you can't hire someone who speaks/reads/writes Japanese? I've seen so many articles over the years where their information is limited because they don't understand the language. Then hire a translator!

So will the 3DS and PS4 game be the same? Or are they different?

YAASSSS

Love the series. Given that I won't be able to play it on my current 3DS (which is bs but whatever) this game might actually make me bite the bullet and get a PS4.....if it comes out in NA of course.

A random thought just occurred to me.... I don't ever want to hear another person talk negatively about another gaming franchise for milking the franchise until they've had a good hard look at this series. 11 games?! Nuts!

That's... AMAZING!

I loved DQVIII waaaay back on my PS2 and I was really dissapointed that the sequel was developed exclusively for the 3DS at the time...

I'm happy that they're going multi-platform this time with it.

I've never played anything from this series before but that art style is fantastic. Might have to check it out for the purely superficial reason that it looks good if they release it outside of Japan.

Title's missing some words, allow me to fix it.

"Dragon Quest 11 revealed for PS4 and N3DS - but only in japan, and don't think you're getting the other games in the series either you dirty westerners, lol"

Great news. Definitely will get for PS4.

I think I prefer the PS4 version.

good news for dq fans sorta maybe?

Finally. Loved DQ 8 on the PS2. Been waiting forever for another DQ on PS.

What is this, an episode of Family Guy? How can an article with a clear hook of jabbing the WiiU/teasing the NX be taken seriously as a pure discussion on the Dragon Quest series.. which is awesome enough it shouldn't be used to sell a silly Nintendo-themed "Paul is dead" conspiracy theory.

Why would Nintendo go against what it has said? Everyone (Sans Nintendo) has said the WiiU is dead, and yet, at the end of many consoles is when we truly see the titles that actually use the systems capabilities start to be made. If you listen to what Nintendo has said... No VR, No competing with WiiU or 3DS, and recent lamentations about how long it takes to port games to the virtual console... the answer is clear.

Nintendo is going to make a retro gaming console. In 2016... they will be able to make a system that runs their own GameCube games, Playstation One games, and Sega Saturn. Without anyone's blessing, and assuming they focus on disc games. They could also include other lesser known systems.. but those are the "Big" ones. With Sega's blessing, they could add the Dreamcast to that list. (Which is good timing, since the Microsoft OS on the Dreamcast system slowly wears the whole thing out... most of them are basically dead now.) They are unlikely to get Sony's blessing (Who just dropped backwards compatibility...) or the blessing of Microsoft (who abandoned their Xbox games the first chance they got and only made a few of them work on the 360 months later...) However, Nintendo is not in the business of getting the blessings of it's active rivals and detractors. The NX is an act of war, an Annex of abandoned retro gaming possibilities and platforms that small hobby developers could even publish games for if they so chose. Big developers might even see fit to republish those rare gems.. the games that even to this day sell for more than 60 bucks and are unlikely to get a revamp anytime soon. All they have to do is republish the disc.

Why leave the manufacture of retro game consoles to the little guys, when Nintendo can swoop in, dominate it, and release a console with a massive library of proven classics and favorites?

On the flip side, Sony could create their own Retro gaming answer, but they would be at least a year behind Nintendo in this now... and the N64 cartridge technology wouldn't be as smooth to integrate into a similarly aimed gesture. Microsoft seems content to stay out of handheld games, either through apathy, or a belief the windows phone will fill that need. It seems unlikely they would bother with a retro console, since they have less ground to lose and never cared about it before. How many of you would buy a retro game system? How many GAMES could you get on the cheap, how many rare treasures do you still have.. and occasionally play... but find yourself wishing you had new hardware? (Particularly hardware that doesn't eat your discs.... Playstation 2 "slim", Xbox 360.. I'm looking at you two.)

That's my theory though. It sounds more solid to me that Nintendo playing "monkey see, monkey do" with Sony and Microsoft or making a video game system you play in your sleep through rem sleep.

I'm not buying a new Nintendo system.

To my knowledge 10 is a MMORPG. I doubt many people would want to play it and it would take a lot more work to bring to the US.

I've always like the Dragon Quest games. I got them all on Android even though I really don't like Anroid controls. I beat most of them on the NES. I believe I played up to number 4. I've also played Dragon Warrior 7 on the playstation. That is a fairly enjoyable game despite it's story. I played 8 a little bit on the WII, but never finished it. I played V almost all the way through on the DS (I wish they would release the SNES version US).

In fact I wish they would bring all of the DQ games to PC with controller support like they have with many of the final fantasy games.

I hope the game will be released outside of Japan because many times the Dragon Quest games are not.

I've never been very interested in the DQ heros or monsters games.

It should be noted that 10 is only available in Japan, and it's likely to stay that way.

Maybe the ps4 dragon quest X actually makes it to the US.

This is great news, but now I don't know which game system to buy it for.

I'm leaning towards getting the 3DS version, since the dual 'modern' and 'retro' display sounds kind of cool.

But then, it would be nice to play a next-gen DQ game. But should I get it then on the PS4, or wait and see what the NX is about - I am a bigger fan of Nintendo than Sony, after all.

Lots to take in here.
