During a Nintendo press event that is currently ongoing, several RPGs were showcased. One of these was Dragon Quest VII.

According to Nintendo, Dragon Quest VII is “basically a brand new game” on 3DS. It’ll feature entirely new writing for its western release. Additionally, random encounters have been removed, and you’ll see enemies on the map. A story summary feature and StreetPass feature that lets you gain tablets will also be included.

The same presenter also mentioned that Dragon Quest VIII will have a top-notch localization.

Update: Thanks to the Japanese update page, we can confirm what we all expected: improved stability. This should be the standard line when the English page has the patch notes: “Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience”.

Nintendo has made a new 3DS firmware update available. Across regions, version 10.4.0-29 is available for download.

We’re actually still waiting for patch notes on this one. However, given the version number change, it’s unlikely to have brought along significant functionality.
