After being announced over three years ago, Square Enix has finally nailed down a Japanese release date for Dragon Quest X. The company has shared an August 2 launch with a ¥6,980 price point for the software itself and an ¥8,980 price point for a USB Memory card bundle. A 16 GB SD card and Internet connection are required to play Dragon Quest X.

Dragon Quest X will ship with two discs on Wii. Square Enix has also confirmed a variety of service charge options. ¥1,000, ¥1,950 or ¥2,900 prices will be available for 30, 60 and 90 days of play respectively. Players can make payments with either Wii Points or with a credit card. Up to three characters can be created.

Although Dragon Quest X does require payment, every copy of the title comes with 20 days of free play time. Additionally, a number of “Kids Times” are planned for free play. These events don’t have a particular age limit, though Square Enix has already told consumers that they’re intended for children.

Don’t forget that there’s also a Wii U version of Dragon Quest X in the works. Obviously the new console won’t be out in August, so the Wii/Wii U versions will be shipping on different dates. Square Enix hasn’t provided any new details about the Wii U version of the game.

Update: Bumping to the front page, as this has now confirmed (see scan below).

Nintendo Everything reader Sondast tells us that the May 2012 issue of Nintendo Power has confirmed New Play Control! Pikmin 2 for North America. It’s apparently releasing this June. This does seem likely, but we’ll mark this as a rumor until we can verify the news.

New Play Control! Pikmin 2 made it out in Japan and Europe back in 2009. Even though the Wii port of the first game was brought stateside, the sequel was not released in North America. Launching New Play Control! Pikmin 2 would be a great way to remind fans of Pikmin 3’s impending arrival on Wii U.
