Lately Dragon Quest fans have been treated with numerous traditional and new releases (IV,V,VI,IX). Another huge announcment was DQX for the Nintendo Wii. Dragon Quest is definitely my favorite rpg series mainly because of it's traditional battle system, art **** and general charm and I would soon shell out the money to purchase a new system just to play a Dq game. Luckily I already have a Wii and DS for the upcoming DQ releases. Normally I would be excited about these releases and the fact that I already own the consoles, but lately I've begun to worry about those games (mostly DQX).

I've been a Nintendo fan all my life so the wii seemed like the perfect current gen system to buy. In the beginning my expectations were fully met but lately as less quality games are being produced (there have seriously been like 5 iterations of the same figgin "carnival game") my interest in the wii has seriously drained. I look at amazing productions such as MGS4 or the upcoming FF13 and The Last Guardian as I long for those games on the Wii. Meanwhile FFCC the crystal bearers for the Wii is drastically different from the last games in the series and Dragon Quest was absolutely slaughtered in DQ Swords.

I can't help but worry about the outcome of DQX on the Wii. Will it be drastically different like FFCC crystal bearers or slaughtered again like the gimmicky DQ Swords? Or maybe it will keep its well-known Dq charms and prove me wrong.
