Dragon Quest X players on 3DS have been experiencing issues with the game. As such, Square Enix has temporarily halted further shipments.
While problems are being examined and Square Enix is close to reaching a solution, it may be still difficult to log in during peak times. Due to cloud streaming, there has been sound skipping as well. The sound issue was reduced somewhat with maintenance that was carried out yesterday and the developers will address the problem in further maintenance periods. These problems are only affecting the 3DS version since it uses cloud technology unlike the Wii U, Wii, and PC releases.
Square Enix says it underestimated the capacity needed to support all simultaneous players for the 3DS version. In order to allow for a smoother experience for existing players on Nintendo’s handheld, the company is cancelling further shipments of the game temporarily. Small shipments will pick up on September 11.
Square Enix plans to give free playtime as compensation for those who have already registered some playtime until the game can be properly experienced during peak hours.
Amazon currently has Super Mario 3D World available for $31.22 via a third-party seller.
This is definitely one of the lowest prices we’ve seen for the game thus far. No clue how long the price will last, so take advantage while you can!
