Nintendo has prepared a new Dragon Quest VII video focusing on the game’s tactics. Check out the video below.

GameXplain has shared a new video containing 20 minutes of gameplay from the English version of Dragon Quest VII. It also features commentary from Nintendo’s Rob Watters. Take a look at the video below.

Even though Dragon Quest VII is about a month away, some members of the press are already getting their hands on the game (in Europe anyway). We’re hearing that the download version amounts to 11,638, which is 1454.75MB. It should be roughly the same amount in North America.

Wave Race 64 and Mario Sports Mix will be hitting the Wii U’s Virtual Console today, August 11. Wave Race 64 will cost $9.99, while Mario Sports Mix will cost $19.99. Below are the official descriptions for each:

Wave Race 64
Take to the waves on your own personal watercraft!

Choose one of four characters, each with his or her own unique abilities and style, and master the game’s excellent controls. Make your way through nine courses, each with its own challenges. If the ramps, mines, and hairpin turns aren’t enough, you’ll also have to deal with varying weather conditions that can make the water choppy or cover the course with fog. Take a break from racing to try the Stunt Mode. Polish your skills pulling off handstands, rolls, flips, and more!

Mario Sports Mix
Four sports, one game—with a Mario twist!

Mario Sports Mix presents four familiar sports but with a Mario twist. Players can choose from a variety of playable Mushroom Kingdom characters or play as their own Mii characters. In any sport, power-ups can turn the tide of a game in an instant. And in over-the-top Mario sports fashion, each character can unleash their special move!

During Square Enix’s special Dragon Quest presentation last July, the publisher indicated that two games in the series would be heading to NX. Those titles in question were the already-released tenth entry as well as the upcoming Dragon Quest XI. There was a tad bit of uncertainty regarding both games on NX following the presentation, but this week’s issue of Famitsu offers a confirmation.

The magazine spoke with director Jin Fujisawa and producer Yosuke Saito as the series celebrated its fourth anniversary last week. In the interview, Saito specifically mentioned NX and PlayStation 4 as being the “climax” of Dragon Quest X. Of course, there were no specifics about how the online RPG will play on Nintendo’s new system.

Nintendo has prepared a new Dragon Quest VII video focusing on the game’s classes. There are over 30 included, the highest number in a Dragon Quest title. Check out the video below.

Nintendo shared a Dragon Quest VII video a couple of weeks ago focusing on the game’s world. Today, we have another video, this time showcasing battles. Watch it below.

Dragon Quest VII is finally heading west in September. But there’s still one other big Dragon Quest 3DS game that we haven’t heard about in quite awhile. That of course is Dragon Quest VIII.

The RPG did appear in Nintendo’s release schedule that we posted earlier today. In North America, it’s still listed for 2016. In Europe though, it’s now apparently coming next year. If we don’t hear about it soon, I can’t imagine that Dragon Quest VIII will remain a 2016 title in North America either.
