Looks pretty amazing. I'm really looking forward to Rocket Slime moreso, but this looks really good.

That's DS? From what I can tell from those scans the screens look a little too colorful and clear to be a DS game. If it really is I'm impressed.
They're from the DS Lite II Turbo, which will be announced at the TGS.
...it might be psp? dont they usually show both screens when they preview a ds game?
Nope, that's DS. I don't know why people are surprised, it's already shown that it handles celshaded graphics extremely well.
Wow that's damn impressive, so I'll be getting two new games to get my dragon quest fix. I've died and gone to fanboy heaven.
i wish the gba dq monsters came over. this looks nice. anyone here familiar with the previous games that came out?
also, the other games in this series ('cept part 2 i think...) seem to star an existing dq character when they were younger. so, is this a new character or one we're familiar with at a younger age? i was thinking maybe angelo from dq8 but....he was a sad sad orphan when he was younger. then i thought about the whole "joker" sub-title and thought of doulmagus. but...that my be stretching it too far. it'd be interesting if it was him, though.
Only played the original DQM on GBC. It was good for the time.
Bumpity Bump bump.
So I picked this up on an impulse buy when I couldn't find a Lost Planet Zboz system, and ended up playing it for 8 hours straight on the train.
I've never actually played any of the DQ Monsters games, nor Pokemon or anything else like it, but man am I hooked on this one. It's damned gorgeous for a DS game, and a hell of a lot of fun.
Anyone else pick this up?
Is there any official news about this or DQ Yangus coming out in the americas?
None that I've heard, but hell they released Rocket Slime... why not this?Quote:

It's nice to hear that Joker turned out good. It always looked great, so it would have been a shame if that was all it had going for it. I hold out hope for a US release because as you said, they released Rocket Slime.
Watch your bloody mouth guv!Quote:

Well, it wasn't made by Chunsoft and was, from everything I've heard, incredibly easy. As far as console roguelikes go, there are better ones.
But it has Yangus and I want it to be good. :(
Anyone get this? I'm enticed.
Yes. It's awesome.
As I said before I wholeheartedly recommend it. A lot of fun.
Nice to hear the game is good, but Christ man you were on the train for 8 hours?Quote:

The 39.99 price does not help either.
Yeah, seriously. I can sorta see where SE thought they could get away with that with FFIII, but DQ has a pretty niche audience in the US. Sent to die, imo.
I was pretty down about it. I was looking for Contra 4 at Best Buy since I wanted something new to play and I couldn't find KOF XI, and it wasn't there. I saw this which I didn't even know was out... $40 was too much. Otherwise I would have left the store with it. :(Quote:

Don't make me start a thread about this. It's becoming rampant on this forum lately, or maybe I'm just noticing it more.
I do it all the time. It's easily my most common English error.
Stop, por favor.
I bought this today. I'll wait until Thanksgiving-ish to start. I never liked Pokemon, though, so it may not have been a wise purchase.
I liked it more than Pokemon, something about it was more fun to me, maybe the fact that it's a party of monsters, not just 1 on 1.
I think i would like it more then pokeemon too. it looks like its a nice game and i appreciate it's look more then pokeemon.
Ooooh. .\ /.
There's no kind of online functionality, is there? I only have one friend who'd probably also be interested in playing this, and he lives back in PA. :(
I really wanted to like the new Pokemon, but even with like 5 people I knew playing it and tons more online, it got old way too fast. This looks like it's lot more substantial of a game.
Eh, kind of. From what I understand, you can upload an "image" of your team onto the network. Players can download the image to battle an AI-run version of your team.Quote:

No it isn't. It's $30.
The Best Buy had it priced wrong then.
