Dragon Quest Monsters 3D Bundle on the Way to Japan
Posted by Thomas Whitehead
Quest begins on 31st May
Japanese release details for Dragon Quest Monsters: Terry's Wonderland 3D have emerged, with Andriasang reporting that two retail options will be available from 31st May. As well as a standard game release there is also a 3DS console bundle on the way, adding yet another design for the handheld in its homeland. Clearly based on the 'Ice White' 3DS, we here at Nintendo Life are unsure whether this new-look console is snazzy and attractive or, alternatively, a bit ugly.
Limited edition console aside, this remake of the Game Boy Color original, Dragon Quest Monsters — also known as Dragon Warrior Monsters — brings a new look to the Monsters spin-off series. This is currently only confirmed for Japan, so fans of the series elsewhere can only wait and hope.
Do you want this title to be released worldwide, and would you be interested in the exclusive 3DS design?

OMG are you kidding? That thing is cute! Of course, I'm getting the Monster Hunter 3DS, but still I kinda like the design.

I think it looks great, I'd be interested in it if I didn't already have a 3DS.

I remember on one cold christmast day morning I opened my presents. I had the pokemon trading card game, which i really wanted, and Dragon warrior monsters, a game i had never heard of. I ended up throwing Dragon warrior, somewhere and played the pokemon trading card game like crazy. Eventually I gave Dragon warrior a chance, and boy had I misjudge a book by its cover. I cannot imagine the number of hours I must have put into that game. I for one would hope that they bring this game to the world wide audience. Also, I think that that 3DS doesn't look too bad. If your into slimes and what not.

A 3DS covered in Slimes? Definitely ugly, the text looks unattractive too.

I want this so bad. One of the reasons I even got a 3ds. Just a classic and in my OPINION kills Pokemon's same ole story. I'm not a fan boy I still love Pokemon so chill.

Hope the game gets a release on this side of the globe...I enjoyed the GBC original much more than I've ever enjoyed Pokemon and would happily buy the remake.

But I just want to know when that sweet remake is coming over here.

Whirlpool said:
This looks great and cute. But why are there 3 grey Slimes? I hope they release DQM for VC.

undead_terror said:
wouldnt say its bad,but they could of removed the words,never played the series before
#29
Corbs said:
That.....is.......beautiful.
But it could have done without the text. I'll still take it!

Prof_Clayton said:
Awesome! But I would prefer just the words 'dragon quest' and one big blue slime, instead of 43 blue and 3 silver.
(The silver ones represent metal slimes, right?)

Methinks such a design better and more wholly suited for that of a simple desktop wallpaper. Placed as thus, woe is the misguided consumer.

Looks great!

i love it . i never gave dragon warrior a chance till last year when i found a gameboy color version of dragon warrior 1 and 2 so i dug out the gba and gave it a shot and have not looked back currently on dragon quest (warrior) VI still love the first 6 ff more. love the old dragon warrior box art.

sykotek said:
It's alright, but I think I would've preferred a design more like this, one that takes into account the external camera lens and incorporates it into the image.

You'll need to use your imagination a bit...and pardon my lack of MS Paint drawing skills.

ljinkakidd said:
@sykotek That actually looks quite professional in a sense. I like it more than the other one.

@sykotek
S-E is currently kicking themselves for not thinking of that first.

Kitsune_Rei said:
Its cute, but I don't think its one of the better 3DS designs. I am curious about this game, I never played it so I hope I can get the chance.
