Gaming Square Enix DS E3 Line Up - DQM joker!

[Hadrian]

SE just announced what they are gonna show at this years E3, down below is whats gonna be shown on the DS:

DRAGON QUEST MONSTERS: Joker Set for November release, yay its coming out in English!
FINAL FANTASY CRYSTAL CHRONICLES: Ring of Fates Sadly now due out Spring '08

FINAL FANTASY XII: REVENANT WINGS Set for November.
FRONT MISSION Set for October release, yay a English release!
HEROES OF MANA Set for August, finally.

Nice to see proper confirmations of Front Mission and DQM Joker for US release. Shame FFCC is out next year. Nothing about FF4 DS or FF Tactics DS but then we've got enough FF titles this year anyway.

 

[GameDragon]

Woah woah woah, Crystal Chronicles has been set back to Q2 '08

... Sad, too sad..

 

[.TakaM]

DQM IN ENGLISH

 

[Akotan]

Joining the whining group: Rings of Fates due Spring 08!?! That's...

That's, like, the next year!!

Sad indeed...

 

[mikagami]

Spring '08?

 

[CockroachMan]

Spring 08?

well.. that gives me time to finish Heroes of Mana, FFXII, DQM and Zelda

Also just because its not announced at E3 doesn't mean that we might not see it early next year. I'm kind of suprised there was no DQ9 on the list, I thought there might be something there.

As for FF:Crystal Chronicles, I'm not suprised that this has been shunted to next year. With all the tactics games coming out I dont mind, I still have a fair few games to polish off as it is.

I'm shocked (and overjoyed) to see Front Mission on the list, I was NOT expecting that to get an english release.

Who thinks Nintendo will announce a new portable?

eDIT: *not me* but still

 

[deathfisaro]

Oh my god!
DQMJ and FM English release?
*faints*

 

[Evilkoko]

*sigh* was hoping for CC to be released this year however unlikely it was.

Can't wait for DQM and FFXII: RW

 

[Yugge]

YAY Front mission in English

 

[akuchan]

DQM

my fave gameboy/colour game! better not be like pokemon =/ battle system SOOO frustratingly slow
too bad crystal chronicle doesnt have wifi multiplayer T.T" but in a way.. it doesn't seem like it would work very well either
Hmmmm is the Front Mission a port or new game?

 

[jesterscourt]

Sadly we have to wait till September 20th to hear news of what the next Kingdom Hearts installment will be... my thought is a "middle" game similar to Chain of Memories, but I guess we'll see. I'd be happy if Final Mix/Final Mix+ was announced for the US in time for Christmas.

 

[Neko]

Spring 08 ?

FF Tactics DS would be great , but I don't think this will ever happen.

 

[Issac]

isnt that already confirmed? a FFTA DS? (Or do you want a FFT DS (Not "advance"

))

DQMJ is quite different from GB DQMs. The biggest difference is scouting system, you don't throw meat any more, but you need to be able to dish out some serious damage if you want to scout a monster. Field movement is somewhat slow, you can see monsters roam around and can avoid/intentionally encounter them. But overall, despite the changes if you likd GB DQM, you probably will enjoy DQMJ, me and my girlfriend surely did.

For Front Mission, it's a port+addition of PS port+addition of SNES. Basically SNES version features OCU side of the story, PS port of it added USN side of the story, DS port of it features both sides and added big one part wanzers. I felt it was worth replaying it though, it was fun and loading is definitely a lot faster thanks to dual screen.

 

[akuchan]

ohh nice, can't wait

Thanks for the detailed description

 

[deathfisaro]

No problem

 

[Skyy]

Hope the games are actually good. The last two Mana games have failed so badly...

I'm having my doubts with Crystal Chronicles after the failing attempt of a game on Gamecube but still lookking forward to it. Since a long time fan of the series so.. Trying to hype it as much as possible

And front mission I've been waiting, that's something I know I will like. Tried out the JAP version but obviously was so heavy on the text side that it was impossible to actually follow the conversations and keep up with the story. Now an english release, rah, FINALLY! Can't wait

Yeah, I finished DQM-J, and it was just plain sweet. The online Joker's GP tournament is pretty cool too

But using flash cards, you can "dupe" monsters by trading to someone, and reloading your save
