Those who visit McDonald’s in Japan can take advantage of the Mac de DS service to browse the net and play games inspired by the fast food restaurant. A new Dragon Quest game will be available starting next month.

“Dragon Quest VII: McDonald’s’ Mysterious Stone Tablet” allows users to take on the role of a warrior, magician, manager, or… McDonald’s crew member. Players battle monsters to earn stone tablet fragments, three of which complete one stone tablet. It seems as though the stone tablets make up an “ancient” McDonald’s menu.

Visit a Japanese McDonald’s between January 11 and March 28 to play Dragon Quest VII: McDonald’s’ Mysterious Stone Tablet.

A number of years ago, there had been talk of a Metroid movie. Once Zide-Perry Productions’ licence option expired, in 2004, director John Woo and the folks at Tiger Hill took over.

Brad Foxhoven, producer on the project and former president of Tiger Hill, told IGN:

“We believed there was a great opportunity for John Woo to bring his style of action into a Metroid film. Nintendo was quite supportive of the idea, as they were all fans of John’s previous films.”


The following Rock Band Music Store songs will be made available on January 2:

“Party Hard” – Andrew W.K. – keyboard support
“We Are Young” – Fun. ft. Janelle Monáe – keyboard support
“Tonight Tonight” – Hot Chelle Rae – keyboard support
“Raise Your Glass” – P!nk – keyboard support

Each song can be purchased for 200 Wii Points.
