This sort of slipped by me last week, so I'm not going to post it as news just in case it was already up there, but here it is to read if you haven't already done so. Nothing earth shattering here, but it confirms a lot of what was expected. I got to say, I'm not nearly as enthusiatic about the title as I once was. Not a whole lot has been added to this game, so it's very much just a graphically enhanced port. That's a little scary to me, as DQVI from what I had read and experienced first hand was a bit of an odd duck. Storywise it was a little on the generic side, and a clear step backwards from DQV. The main draw for the game was the class system, which was eventually replicated and expanded upon in DQVII.
So what we're left with is a game with an average story and a class system that's less varied than DQVII and lacks the customization of DQIX. Now I'm wondering if there will be anything of interest in the game aside from maybe a Puff Puff room. I'm sure I'll still pick it up, but until I read a little more about it, it's probably not a day 1 purchase anymore.
No updates for you today, Aspro. I think I have pretty much EVERYTHING covered...
...at least 3DS-wise. I don't think anything else is being reported today in the video-game world...
...kinda reminds me of E3 all over again!
Thanks, yeah, I'll just skip the 3DS stories. From scanning, it looks like the big news is $249. So that's a first day buy... but what will I play -- NONE of these appeal to me. If only paper mario was coming out.
Play A link to the Past from the Virtual Console, and the built-in apps and crap. Does it include flipnote and such? I'd get SSFIV personally, that's the closest to a killer app (and not very close) with it being so close to the home versions +3D and having online play etc.
The optimist proclaims we live in the best of all possible worlds
while the pessimist fears this is true.

Shonen Jump had this one promotional line from Square regarding FF 13-2 "In the world where I once existed, time's path is no longer certain..." -- so looks like a time traveller.

Japan sales 2010 is a must read. So much for Nintendo being dead in Japan:
"In software, Nintendo was by far the most successful publisher, with a total of 11.4 million games sold through in Japan -- and that's not counting Pokemon, which is technically published by a satellite company in the region. Out of the top 100 bestselling games of 2010, one out of five were Nintendo titles."
SO MUCH NEWS!!!!
So glad to hear that its one friend code.
Screw friend codes! I want a gamertag for my Nintendo systems.
So OoT 3D wont have any new additions? What. I am expecting some sort of master quest, with all new remixed dungeons and crap.
Sorry, but I rather be Bobovic instead of Bobovic_82.
Your ignorance is showing! You are not a number with friendcodes. Yes, you have to fill them in, but you still have a name. That name is shown on your friendlist.
The problem was never the friendcodes, the problem was that you had different one for each game and it was difficult to exchange them. At least they solved one.
...and I was gonna offer you money!
Good to know... Good to know...
Of course you do.
He is alive which is nice to know, he'll come back if or when he is ready.
You are ok with everything.
(Except friend codes it seems)
