Square Enix will be bringing a Dragon Quest compilation to the Wii in honor of Dragon Quest’s 25th anniversary. Jump revealed the news in their latest issue (see the scan above). The first three titles in the series along with the Super Famicom remakes will be included on one disc, though it doesn’t look like there will be any enhancements. Dragon Quest 25th Anniversary Collection will arrive in Japan this September.
Harvest Moon: Tale of Two Towns (3DS/DS)
Gabrielle’s Ghostly Groove (Wii/3DS)
Reel Fishing Paradise (3DS)
“a highly-anticipated unannounced title for PS3 and Wii”
Hmm… that last one… does this game ring a bell with anyone?
Yeah, I think it’s safe to say that Nastsume will announce Rune Factory: Oceans for North America next month.
Just wanted to make sure we highlighted this news on the site. We posted the full press release earlier in the day which confirmed Rebecca Chambers as a playable character in Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D, but the notice also contained the game’s official North American launch date.
“For those who cannot wait until June 28 for some Resident Evil action, a new Resident Evil Facebook game is now available.”
June is looking like a pretty decent month for the 3DS between The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D and The Mercenaries 3D. Hopefully the amount of high-quality releases continues as we head further into the year.
There are a few items on the list below that are confirmed, such as Excitebike and Mega Man Legends 3 Prologue. Zelda, Xevious and Super Mario Land are also likely based on what Nintendo has said previously. Other inclusions on the list are questionable and should be considered as a rumor until something official is provided by Nintendo.
