Dragon Quest X update – finishing last parts of the game, announcement later this year
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
Doesn’t it feel like Dragon Quest X was announced ages ago? It was first revealed in 2008, but we’ve barely heard anything about the project. Yuji Horii has said in the past that the title is still on track for Wii, though wouldn’t share any additional information.
Fortunately, the latest issue of Nintendo Power contains a much anticipated status update about the game. Horii told the magazine that the development team is actually finishing “last parts of the game.” Additionally, Square Enix will be making an announcement about Dragon Quest X later this year.
“The next Dragon Quest game, Dragon Quest X, will actually be released on Wii. I feel that some users will want to play Dragon Quest on the big screen, which is why we are working toward releasing it on Wii. Of course, in the future we might develop on handhelds again, so it’s really a case-by-case basis. It all depends on what the customer wants at that time. Something else we hear is that players want a new Dragon Quest that follows the same system of Dragon Quest VIII, so that’s something else we’re taking into consideration while in development for a Dragon Quest on Wii… All we can say is that development is going well and we’re on the last parts of the game. We can’t really share much else at this point, but by the end of this year we should be able to announce something regarding it.”
Nintendo UK: More fantastic new experience coming to Wii
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
This information comes from Nintendo UK marketing manager James Honeywell…
“We’ve been really pleased with Wii and how it has performed. It’s the market leader in the UK by some margin. I think it has been proven really that it is Britain’s favourite home console with a huge install base. But obviously as you reach a certain level things perhaps might slow down, but again we’ve got a really strong line-up, we’re really proud with what we’ve achieved in getting it into so many homes, and we’ve have a strong campaign for promotion this year and think it will continue as a strong viable format. I guess we haven’t made any announcements recently because we’ve been concentrating on the 3DS launch, but there are still lots of games to come. I’m sure you’ll see at this year’s E3. For anybody who has a Wii, they can rest assured that we’ll be bringing some fantastic new experiences to them.”
Well, Nintendo of Europe just revealed Xenoblade Chronicles, which is definitely a fantastic experience. The new Kirby game might be released this year as well, and don’t forget about The Last Story… Nintendo has to localize that one, right?

High-Octane, Adrenaline-Fueled Adventure Tasks Players with Saving Spider-Man This Fall
Santa Monica, CA – March 31, 2011 – Activision Publishing, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI) and Marvel Entertainment, LLC today announced Spider-Man™: Edge of Time, where Spider-Man faces one of his greatest challenges ever – saving Spider-Man. Developed by Activision-owned studio Beenox, Spider-Man: Edge of Time challenges the player to take on the roles of both classic Amazing Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2099 to correct a timestream gone awry and prevent a catastrophic future brought on by the early and untimely death of Peter Parker.
“The first Spider-Man entry by Beenox, Spider-Man™: Shattered Dimensions was touted as one of the wall-crawler’s best Spider-Man games to date from both critics and fans,” said Vicharin Vadakan, Director, Global Brand Management. “Beenox is once again taking a fresh and different approach to bring a fast-paced and high-octane adventure and unexpected story to life in Spider-Man: Edge of Time.”
Xenoblade Chronicles trailer

I believe this trailer was already released in Japan (especially given the Japanese text), but it’s definitely worth watching. The video features some of the impressive locations players can visit on their journey in Xenoblade Chronicles. We’re still waiting on a localization announcement for North America, though the situation is a bit more promising since the game was confirmed for Europe earlier today.

Man, if this doesn’t see a release in North America now, I’m going to be extremely displeased!
