Chrom Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 https://www.nintendo.co.jp/nintendo_direct/20170621/index.html So this is happening soon. Don't expect an English broadcast. Cool to see another Nintendo Direct dedicated to a third party game. Note that it's supposed to be focused on the 3DS version of the game, so don't expect to see much if anything of the Switch version. Quote Link to comment
Carl321 Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Think we'll get this one or they going to continue to bat away the filthy westerners? Quote Link to comment
Fuzzer1 Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Don't expect an English version of the Direct? Well that shows a ton of confidence for it coming here. Why though was Dragon Quest X not localized here? Quote Link to comment

Dancing Mog Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 The game release on July 29th so this makes sense to me for a Direct, really want a release date for NA so I can stop worrying about whether or not we will get it. I have no doubts it will release outside Japan but it likely won't be until the end of 2018 or early 2019 depending on when they start to translate it. Really want to see what the Switch version looks like since info has been held back but it will probably be similar to the PS4 version. Quote Link to comment
Eliwood8 Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 I'm holding out hope for a localization after we got the one-two punch of DQVII and VIII in the past year. Although those were brought over years after they released in Japan... Quote Link to comment

I was talking about the recent 3DS versions if that wasn't clear. VII was brought over three years after it released in Japan, and VIII about a year and a half which granted isn't too bad.

Kezay Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Would be nice to see something of the Switch version but more info on the game in general is a plus so there's something to take away from it. Quote Link to comment
Fuzzer1 Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Why exactly does it take a year for a Dragon Quest game to be localized? Wouldnt it be smarter to do the translating to English during development? Quote Link to comment
Chrom Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 StreetPass stuff looks neat. Quote Link to comment
