Further comments have emerged regarding the potential localization of Dragon Quest VII for 3DS.
In an interview with USgamer, Square Enix’s Yuu Miyake revealed that the company had given up on the idea at one point. However, based on interest from fans, Square Enix is now “trying to rethink this, to see if there’s any way to make this more feasible.”
Miyake said:
This petition came from France, written in Japanese, asking, ‘Is there any way you would consider it?’ We hear the fans, and we’re paying attention. We had actually given up on the idea of localization altogether, but because there’s such a great response we’re trying to rethink this, to see if there’s any way to make this more feasible. We’re recalculating, and figuring out the costs necessary. Trying to work out the details.

Teyon is preparing yet another release for the 3DS eShop. “Chat-a-lot” has been rated by the USK, though no information is included in the listing. I’d say we’ll be hearing something official about Chat-a-lot soon.

In an article in this week’s Famitsu, a new partnership between PoPoLoCrois and Harvest Moon was announced.
