A few mysterious listings have appeared in Best Buy’s system. The retailer now has “Dummy SKUs” entries for various platforms, including Wii U and 3DS. These all are E3-related, so I assume pre-orders for these unknown games will kick off during the event next month.

The new issue of V-Jump magazine gives us tons of detail regarding the new Dragon Ball Z game, Extreme Butoden, coming out soon for the 3DS in Japan. The magazine gives us a look at the entire playable roster as well as their stats and movesets!

Getting the demo version of Extreme Butoden grants an immediate unlock for the Super Saiyan God form of Super Saiyan Goku (the blue hair), allowing him to be playable. Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden will release June 11th in Japan. Still no word on a western release for this upcoming brawler.

A version of Dragon Quest VII for Nintendo 3DS was announced last week. Despite being a port, the game will nonetheless feature some new story scenarios. Thanks to the newest issue of V Jump magazine, we now know that these new story scenarios will be called “Dhoulmagus’ Past” and “The Hero’s Childhood”. Dhoulmagus is the antagonist of DQ VIII, so a part of the story focusing on his past and motivations will be quite interesting.

Dragon Quest VIII will launch on Nintendo 3DS on August 27th in Japan. A Western release has not yet been announced.
