Dragon Quest IX will be marketed heavily in North America and Europe

After the smashing success of Dragon Quest IX in Japan (selling over 3m copies within the first couple of weeks), it’s no surprise that both Square Enix and Nintendo want the game to fare just as well overseas. Because of this, Nintendo has announced plans to work with Square Enix on the marketing for the game in North America and Europe. This may prove difficult however, as Dragon Quest games have not sold so well in the past overseas. Hopefully things will change this time around, because IX looks to be one of the better entries to the series!
In addition, Miyamoto expressed interest in the “Passerby Mode” from Dragon Quest, stating that he would be interested in creating a game around that feature for people to play outside of the house.
