3DS

With Monster Hunter Stories releasing soon in Japan, Capcom is working at marketing the 3DS title with commercials. You can watch the two commercials below to see the excitement:

It’s time for the latest Famitsu‘s most wanted games chart! Pokemon Sun/Moon, Dragon Quest XI, and Zelda: Breath of the Wild are all up a spot.

Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between September 8 and September 14.

Dragon Quest X

Nintendo streamed the Dragon Quest VII developer discussion at PAX from a couple of weeks ago, but the online audience was only treated to some of what was shown. We know that a bit of Dragon Quest VIII footage debuted at the event, and fans were able to ask Square Enix’s Noriyoshi Fujimoto some questions.

One person wanted to find out if we’ll ever be getting Dragon Quest X in the west. According to a fan attending the event, Fujimoto responded by saying that translating an MMO is a daunting task, and it would be difficult to bring over the game from a business standpoint. However, he did say that if there’s enough fan outcry similar to that of what happened with Dragon Quest VII, Square Enix could look into it.

Square Enix has already made Dragon Quest X for Wii U, 3DS, and Wii. An NX version is also planned.

Thanks to YouTuber AbdallahSmash026, we have another half hour of footage from Yo-kai Watch 2. See the latest gameplay below.

Nintendo Everything was at this year’s Tokyo Game Show! We had a low-key presence at the event, but we did manage to try out several upcoming Japanese 3DS titles. Look for our impressions in the coming days.


Megami Meguri is Capcom’s upcoming new 3DS game where players communicate with and raise an IC card spirit. The regular game, a free-to-play experience, will be fully downloadable from the eShop. However, there will be also physical Collector’s Package (at 5,800 yen) and a limited Complete Edition at e-Capcom (9,800 yen) that will also come with extra memorabilia.

A demo of Megami Meguri was available at Tokyo Game Show 2016. When we started playing, Amaterasu greeted us in her human form, explaining what we are expected to do to raise the spirit, before converting to a chibi form.

The latest episode of the Play Nintendo Show has gone live. View the new video below, which focuses on Yo-kai Watch 2 – launching next week in North America.

Sonic Boom: Fire & Ice will be out in just a few days, but some publications have the game early. Watch 30 minutes of footage below from a live stream hosted by ntower.

Over on Amazon Canada, the official Harvest Moon: Skytree Village has been put up for us to see. You can see what the packaging image looks like above.

Mario Party: Star Rush isn’t too far away, and Nintendo is now opening an official teaser site for the game. Visit the North American page here. The full site should open a week or two before it launches.
