A quick reminder for the Dragon Quest fans out there: Square Enix will be holding a conference in Japan at 1 AM EDT/10 PM EDT to take the lid off the latest game in the series, complete with an introduction and video footage.

I can’t see this event being related to anything other than Dragon Quest X, which has been in development for a number of years. Based on the fact that the first trailer is included in the Anniversary Collection (comes out in Japan in about a week) and TGS right around the corner, a reveal for “X” makes perfect sense.

In any case, I’ll be up late tonight to cover any news from the event. We’ll also try to nab any video footage for you folks as soon as possible.

Reminder: It’s tonight!

If all goes as planned, I should be able to host a Game Night event this week. It’ll take place on the usual day and at the usual time: Friday at 8 PM EDT. I’ll be sure to provide an update on the site if anything changes.

Update: All fixed! Thanks for your patience.

We’re experiencing some issues with emails at the moment. Any messages sent in through the contact form or to any addresses on the domain directly within the last 36 hours may not have been received. This applies to our sister site as well.

Please know that we may not receive your email if it is sent it in now. We’re working on the problem and hope to have it fixed soon.

That was a very eventful morning… one that I wish I could have avoided! Some critical maintenance had to be done, which affected things for a few hours. Both sites were down, but thankfully that only lasted a few hours.

Now back to your regularly scheduled updates!

Hurricane Irene has already been tearing up the East Coast, but now it’s making its way to the Northeastern states. Unfortunately, its track is approaching my region, and I’m expecting it to hit pretty hard here. That means 50-75 mile-per-hour winds (with gusts up to 80 miles-per-hour) and tons of rain. My main concerns are power outages and trees crashing down on the house (there are a few trees right outside that seem like they could fall over with a decent amount of force…)

So if you don’t see any updates (or very minimal updates) today, you can thank old Ireney for that. It’s very possible that a power outage will affect the area, and if that happens, I have no idea when it’ll return. If something does happen, I’ll do my best to post on the site to give you all a heads or or I’ll somehow inform Austin about the situation so he can provide an update.

Anyways, good luck to all of the East Coast residents out there. Stay safe!

Update: Annnnd it’s over. There really wasn’t anything new, but I doubt Konami would really want to share anything major before TGS…

The Konami conference just started a few minutes ago, which means I’ll be getting a few less hours of sleep tonight. At the very least, there’ll be New Love Plus news, though we may hear more on Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D and Beyond the Labyrinth. Will there be any surprises?

I’ll be updating the site with any relevant Nintendo news as it arrives.

If you’d like to join us for some multiplayer DS action, hop onto the site at 8 PM EDT. Mario Kart DS is on the list and we’ll be open to other suggestions as well. Just look for the IRC chat on the main site at 8!

It’s been awhile since we’ve had a DS Game Night, so we’re due for another one! It’ll operate similar to Wii Game Nights… just with DS systems instead. Mario Kart DS will probably be on the agenda, though we’ll be open to other suggestions as well.

Just be sure to free up some time on Friday starting at 8 PM EDT!
